Pet care experience

Active Pet Lover | 10+ years

With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds (dachshunds, labs, poodles) and cats, I understand the unique needs of both energetic and senior pets. I lead an active lifestyle, offering long walks and playtime, while also respecting each pet’s boundaries. Whether caring for anxious pups or senior pets, I tailor my approach to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

Shelby watched Bea for a week and she was great. She was patient with Bea and had great communication with me.

Schedule

Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine, as I lead an active lifestyle and enjoy spending time outdoors. I’m available for walks, playtime, and overnight stays, and I can adjust my schedule to accommodate the needs of each pet. Whether it’s early mornings or late evenings, I’m flexible and ready to care for your pets whenever you need me.

Safety, trust & environment

I ensure pets feel safe and comfortable in both my home and theirs by sticking to their routines and respecting their space. In my apartment, I create a secure environment with pet-proofing, plenty of room for play, and cozy spots for relaxation. When caring for pets in your home, I maintain their familiar environment, ensuring minimal stress and maximum comfort. I always prioritize safety, from leash control during walks to administering any necessary medications. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day includes lots of walks, playtime, and personalized care based on your pet’s needs. For dogs, we might start the day with a nice walk, followed by some interactive play or puzzle toys. Cats get plenty of attention too—whether that’s play with toys, brushing, or cozy window-watching time. I also make sure pets get fed on schedule, have fresh water, and feel relaxed and loved throughout the day. My goal is to keep them happy, active, and stress-free while you’re away.
