Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced & Compassionate Care
What sets me apart is my patience, adaptability, and genuine understanding that every animal is different. I have hands-on experience with anxious, reactive, high prey drive, and hard-to-motivate dogs, including dogs who are fearful, overstimulated, or simply uninterested in treats or traditional approaches. I’m open-minded about training and behavior support, and I believe success comes from learning the individual dog in front of you rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all method. My professional background in healthcare and hospitality shaped how I care for both people and animals: with attentiveness, empathy, calm communication, and reliability. To me, pet care is an extension of that work. Animals deserve the same patience, understanding, and compassion we offer our human loved ones — honestly, maybe even more.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I believe pets feel safest when their routines, boundaries, and personalities are respected. I prioritize calm, attentive, and reliable care while making sure animals feel secure and comfortable in their environment. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, energy levels, and any medical or behavioral needs so I can adapt my approach to each individual animal. I’m experienced with anxious, reactive, and sensitive pets, so safety during walks, introductions, feeding, and play is always a top priority. I’m also careful about doors, leashes, harnesses, triggers, medications, and maintaining the routines owners already have in place. In a client’s home, I treat both the space and the animals with respect and professionalism. I know how important trust is when someone is caring for your pets and entering your home, so I value communication, dependability, cleanliness, and consistency just as much as affection and fun.
Ratings and reviews
Robyn is amazing and saved the day for taking a drop in visit on such short notice! Our dogs all love her and her visit checked every box. 10/10 recommend and would gladly book again!
Robyn was wonderful! This was the first time we had ever left our boys with someone who wasn’t family. Robyn made us feel completely at ease from the start. She was very communicative throughout our stay and sent us lots of pictures, which we absolutely loved! Robyn is very knowledgeable and insightful when it comes to dog behavior, and she kept us informed about anything that came up with the boys. We really appreciated her attention to detail and the care she gave them in their own home. We felt completely at peace knowing Robyn was watching our boys, and we would absolutely trust her with them again. We highly recommend Robyn!
Robyn did a great job with our furbabies! We have two pups and two kitties, which can be a lot to handle, especially since one of the doggos is fairly anxious. The whole crew seemed to really take to her. Robyn was very accommodating and was able to meet with us and our babies twice before house sitting for us. She was very responsive and kept us posted daily, which was comforting while we were away. Would book again!
Robyn was awesome, took wonderful care of Cammie and Cammie really enjoyed staying with her. She went way above and beyond while staying in my home. Robyn sent lots of pics and I felt very comfortable leaving Cammie with her and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy sitter!
Robyn was fantastic with our pups! They can be particular in their daily routines and she did an excellent job of keeping us updated and making sure they had a great weekend. We've already booked her again because our dogs just loved her and we felt so comfortable and confiyin her!
Wonderful pet sitter! Very communicative and kind with the doggies!

Schedule
My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to be highly available and adaptable to both you and your pets’ needs. I’m taking this time to intentionally explore my next professional chapter, and in the meantime, I’m genuinely excited to spend more time doing something I love: caring for animals. Whether your pet needs consistency, patience, extra attention, or just a reliable human while you’re away, I’m happy to provide thoughtful, dependable care.
