Will they do what’s best for the pet regardless of whether it’s the most difficult route for themselves? #2 Is the pet ever the villain in any story? You can learn everything you need to know with these simple questions. With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, I approach pet sitting very differently than someone who has simply “owned pets.” My experience is built on intentional care, enrichment, and an understanding of canine behavior. I believe dogs thrive when their physical and mental needs are both met. I focus on creating an engaging, low-stress environment that includes structured exercise, mental stimulation, and positive interaction tailored to each dog’s personality and energy level. In addition to long-term personal experience, I have professional experience training dogs, which gives me a strong understanding of canine communication, behavior management, and reinforcement-based training methods. This allows me to confidently handle a wide range of temperaments and help reinforce good habits while owners are away. Whether your dog is high-energy and loves activity or prefers a calm and predictable routine, my goal is the same: to ensure every dog in my care experiences a safe, enriching, and genuinely enjoyable stay. All of this built on the foundation of doing whatever is best for YOUR pet. Regardless, of whether it may be the least convenient option for myself. I don’t drink or smoke. I never have. I am meticulous, discerning and passionately detail driven. I conscientiously try to do the best I can with everything I do. I came back to Rover as a means of therapy when I lost my dog just before Christmas of 2025. I continue to do it while I figure out what my hobbies and life as a whole are to look like moving forward. My pup took a lot of my time. I keep an extraordinarily clean and tight place. I frequent Camp Hill and Lewisberry for sitting services. I started a dog training company in 2013. I then went into more specialized services and started a pet transport company for weddings in 2015. I now work from home facilitating onboarding for a fortune 20 company. I have built a life which allows me the freedom to share as many experiences with animals as possible. I gave my dog monthly injections for arthritis and multiple pills, tablets and capsules of vitamins, supplements and medication daily. I’ve administered eye drops, cared for very fine and delicate eye stitches. I’ve raised two dogs well past the age of 10 and kept them both mobile, happy and active! I believe in being your babies voice! My passion is in dog psychology. I strongly believe in learning to establish a line of communication with your dog.
