Pet care experience

Fit, Friendly, & Here for Your Pup!

I truly see dogs as family. I cared for my own pup, Laika, for 13 amazing years, including her senior years—so I understand the patience, attention, and love dogs of all ages need. I’m very active, reliable, and gentle, and I always try to match each dog’s energy and personality. Whether it’s a puppy who needs play and structure or a senior dog who needs calm walks and extra care, I adjust to their needs and treat them like my own.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or stopping by for walks or drop-ins, I treat your dog and your space with respect. I follow any routines or instructions you provide to make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I keep a calm, friendly energy and take the time to build trust with each dog I meet. I also make sure walks are safe and enjoyable—avoiding hazards, staying alert, and always keeping your dog’s comfort a top priority.

Sam is a great around my golden retriever! Sam does a great job of taking Rocky on long walks, playing with him, and giving him lots of cuddles. Sam is responsible. I would highly recommend him!

Samuel is a great and responsible pet owner who has currently been taking care of his dog for over 13 years. He always walks his dog in the morning midday in the afternoon and the evening. He’s very responsible with his dog and grooms and cleans her regularly. He’s very responsible. He also took care of my dog Gracie when I went on a family vacation and was dog sitting for 3 weeks for me and I really appreciate what he did to help me and take care of my special girl.

Schedule

I’m a college student and I also work part-time, but I’ve made room in my schedule to care for pets because it’s something I genuinely love doing. I’m available all day on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays, and I have some flexibility on weekends as well as Wednesdays and Thursdays. I enjoy staying active, so fitting pet care into my week feels natural—it gives me a chance to get outdoors, stay grounded, and connect with dogs in a meaningful way.

I’d love to know anything that helps me give your pet the best care—like their routines, triggers, favorite toys, energy levels, or any medical needs. Knowing how they are with other dogs, people, or on walks also really helps. The more I know, the more I can make sure they feel safe and happy!
