Pet care experience

Trusted Pet Care You Can Count On –

I bring real hands-on experience to every pet I care for — not just love, but knowledge: 6 years caring for cats — from playful kittens to senior cats who need medication and gentle routines. I understand body language, behavioral changes, dietary needs, and creating a calm, cozy environment. 5 years with bearded dragons — including proper temperature/humidity care, fresh salads, tank cleaning, supplements, and handling. I’m very comfortable with reptiles and their day-to-day needs. Comfortable with multiple pets, feeding schedules, and custom routines. I’ve also worked with pets needing medication, vet check-ins, and anxiety support — I always follow instructions carefully! Your pet will be treated like family and cared for with experience, patience, and daily check-ins 💛

Schedule

Pet care is built right into my daily schedule — it’s not something I squeeze in, it’s something I plan around. Every morning starts with feeding, fresh water, and check-ins with my own pets, so I’m already in “pet parent mode” before the day begins. Here’s how I structure my routine: Morning: Feeding, potty breaks, or tank checks for my bearded dragons. I review the schedule for the day and confirm visits/walks. Midday: Drop-in visits, walks, medication if needed, and enrichment/playtime. Evening: Final check-ins, dinner feeding, and overnight care if scheduled. Flexible scheduling – I adjust my day depending on each pet’s routine so they receive care when they’re used to it, not just when it’s convenient. Since I already care for my own animals daily, adding your pet into my schedule feels natural. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own routine and keep communication open with updates, photos, and check-ins — no pet ever feels forgotten or rushed.

To make sure your pet gets the best care possible, I appreciate knowing a few things ahead of time: 🐾 Behavior & Personality Are they shy, anxious, energetic, or social? Do they have any triggers (loud noises, other pets, men/women, etc.)? Do they guard food or toys? How do they do on walks or in new environments? 🍽 Feeding & Health Any allergies or dietary restrictions? Medication or supplements needed? Feeding schedule & treat rules 🚽 Potty / Litter Habits Potty schedule / signals Accidents / marking tendencies Litter box preferences (for cats) 🧠 Training / Commands They Know Do they know sit, stay, recall, etc.? Any current training routines you’d like me to continue? 🦴 Breed Preferences My preference is for gentle, friendly breeds, but I’m open to all as long as I know their behavior in advance. I just want to be well-prepared so your pet feels safe and comfortable!
