Pet care experience

Dog lover ready to spoil your pup!

One thing that sets me apart is my ability to understand and respond to dogs’ body language. I pay close attention to their behavior and little signals so I can recognize when they’re comfortable, nervous, overwhelmed, or need some space. I have a special soft spot for nervous and anxious dogs and understand that every dog has their own personality and comfort level. I’ve spent the past 6 years caring for my own dog, who can be nervous and easily startled, which has taught me a lot about patience, building trust, and making dogs feel safe and comfortable. I never want a dog to feel pressured or ignored—I let them come to me at their own pace while giving them plenty of love, attention, and reassurance.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. When house sitting, I keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment and follow their normal routines as closely as possible. I’m attentive to their needs, give them plenty of love and companionship, and pay close attention to their body language so I can recognize when they’re happy, nervous, or need some space. I’m also respectful of your home and will keep things clean, tidy, and secure while you’re away. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re gone.

Schedule

I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending lots of time with the pets in my care. I’m available for overnight house sitting and can provide plenty of companionship, attention, potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal routine and adjust my schedule to their individual needs. I especially enjoy house sitting because it allows me to stay with pets and give them consistent care and company while their owners are away.

I love dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities! Every dog is different, so I’d love to know anything important about your pet ahead of time, including their temperament, energy level, routines, fears, triggers, special needs, allergies, or behaviors I should be aware of. I’m happy to accommodate each dog’s individual personality and comfort level. I especially appreciate knowing what makes your dog feel safe, happy, and comfortable so I can give them the best care possible.
