Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I plan my schedule to make sure pets get consistent attention and care. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, which allows me to handle feeding times, walks, play sessions, and check-ins throughout the day. I typically structure my day so I can prioritize pet visits, whether that’s starting with morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening care. On a weekly basis, I keep my schedule flexible to accommodate recurring bookings as well as last-minute requests when possible. I’m reliable about maintaining routines that pets are used to, and I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while in my care.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and any specific needs so I can provide consistent and personalized care. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely—this includes feeding schedules, walk routines, medication (if needed), and any house rules. I make sure pets feel secure by maintaining their normal routine and giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’m also mindful about keeping doors, gates, and any potential hazards secure at all times. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment where they can relax and feel comfortable. I monitor interactions, keep the space free of hazards, and ensure pets have access to fresh water, a cozy resting area, and regular exercise. Communication is very important to me, so I provide updates, photos, and quick responses to help owners feel confident and at ease while their pet is in my care.

A typical day

There are a lot of walking paths along the coast by the beach and trails around Rancho Palos Verdes where I will walk the dogs.

Experienced dog walker and sitter!

Pet care experience

I have had 3 dogs since I was 3 years old, and have a passion for animals all together! I have a lot of experience walking dogs, feeding dogs, and cleaning up after dogs. I currently have 2 puppies right now, so I have a lot of experience with younger dogs as well! I have experience in giving medication to pets as well, especially oral medication. I have always had a huge soft spot for dogs, and you will not regret choosing and trusting me to handle your pet! I get along with all dogs, and am a responsible working professional who is looking for some extra cash. Let me know if you are interested in having me watch your dogs at anytime!
