Pet care experience

Shelter Experienced Animal Lover

I’ve worked at an animal shelter for a year and a half, where I gained hands on experience caring for animals of all temperaments and ages. My responsibilities included walking dogs, feeding, cleaning, and safely administering medications when needed. Working in a shelter environment has taught me patience, attention to detail, and how to make animals feel safe and comfortable, even in stressful situations. I also have two cats and a dog of my own, so I understand the level of love, responsibility, and care our pets deserve. I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a true passion of mine. Being around them isn’t just a job to me, it’s something I genuinely love.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I know how important consistency is for animals, so I stick closely to their usual feeding schedules, walk times, play routines, and any special instructions you provide. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own. Whether that means long walks, extra playtime, quiet companionship, or administering medication, I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and personality.

Schedule

Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. Between caring for my own two cats and dog, I’m used to planning my days around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel loved and secure. Adding your pet to my routine is something I truly enjoy and prioritize. I’m flexible with scheduling and happy to work around your pet’s specific needs to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. Please check my calendar for the specific days you need care.

Knowing your pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, and any medical needs ahead of time helps me provide the best care possible. I also like to know about their favorite activities, any fears or triggers, and how they do around new people or other animals so I can keep them comfortable, safe, and happy.
