Highlights
Pet care experience
Cincy Native, Attorney & Dog Lover
I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have been caring for both pets and homes since I was young. Growing up, dog sitting, house sitting, and babysitting were some of the first ways I earned extra money, and over the years I’ve continued to be someone friends, family, and neighbors trust with their pets and homes while they’re away. I’m comfortable with everything from quick drop-ins and walks to overnight stays and extended care. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s individual personality - whether that means long walks, playtime, lots of attention and affection, or simply keeping them company and maintaining their normal routine. I love dogs of all ages and sizes and understand that puppies, adult dogs, and seniors can each require different levels of patience, energy, and care. And while dogs have always had my heart, I’m also very happy to care for cats! I recently lost my own beloved dog, which has made me appreciate even more how important it is to have someone you truly trust caring for your pet. I’m hoping to spend some of my extra time doing something I genuinely love: giving other people’s pets the same attention, affection, and dependable care I would want for my own.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
My priority is always making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and secure while their person is away. I understand that many pets are happiest in their own home and familiar surroundings, so I’m very comfortable caring for them there and following their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications or special instructions, sleeping arrangements, and any household preferences you provide. I do live in an apartment, so hosting in my home is best suited for smaller, well-behaved, non-shedding dogs who are comfortable in that environment. For pets who are more comfortable at home, I’m happy to come to them instead. I also take the responsibility of being trusted with both someone’s pet and home very seriously. I’m attentive to doors, leashes, feeding instructions, routines, and any special safety concerns, and I’m happy to provide regular updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is being well cared for while you’re away.

Schedule
I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability, which allows me to make pet care a priority rather than trying to squeeze it in around a packed workday. I’m available for weekday and weekend walks, drop-ins, daytime care, overnight stays, and longer stays when needed. Because my schedule is flexible, I can also accommodate pets who need more frequent visits, longer walks, companionship during the day, or a little extra attention. I’m happy to work around your pet’s established routine and do my best to accommodate last-minute needs or schedule changes when possible.

- Please share your pet’s normal routine, temperament, feeding schedule, medications, favorite activities, and any health concerns, fears, triggers, or behavioral quirks. I’d also like to know how they interact with unfamiliar people and animals so I can keep them safe, comfortable, and happy.
