Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet Care Writer + 10 yrs Expertise
As a YouTube writer for Chewy, I spent years immersed in the pet world—learning from veterinarians, trainers, behaviorists, and the animals themselves. That experience taught me how to notice the little things: body language, emotional signals, changes in behavior, and the unique routines that help each pet feel safe and comfortable. I’ve cared for dogs, puppies, senior pets, cats, and dog-reactive dogs, and I’m comfortable administering medication. Most importantly, I know there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to pet care. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, quirks, routines, and preferences so they feel cared for and you feel 100% assured they’re being loved on while you’re away!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Suki has cared for our dog twice now, and I wish she was available every time we left for vacation. I’ve had many sitters and while they’ve all been great, Suki, is truly on another level and will always be my first choice. She made a genuine effort to bond with our dog and spent quality time with her. She took her on adventures to the park, the beach, and her favorite coffee shop for pup cups. Suki updated us everyday with photos and videos, and we always felt at ease while we were gone. Nothing is better than coming home to a well cared home but especially coming home to a happy and healthy dog ❤️ we are forever grateful for Suki!
Suki was absolutely wonderful with Cosmo! From the moment I read her profile and application, I had a great first impression, and after speaking with her, I knew she would be a great fit. She has her own dog with similar behaviors to Cosmo, so I felt confident that she understood his personality and quirks. Suki was an excellent communicator throughout her stay and sent me so many pictures and updates. She had so many wonderful things to say about Cosmo, which made me feel completely comfortable knowing he was happy and well cared for while I was away. She also went above and beyond with my home. She left everything in great shape, cleaned the sheets, remade the bed before I returned, and even left the sweetest note on a beautiful card. Those thoughtful touches really meant a lot to me. I truly appreciate everything Suki did and would absolutely have her watch Cosmo again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, communicative, and thoughtful pet sitter!
Highly recommended Somar! She stayed at my apartment watching my two cats and was reliable, a good communicator, and self sufficient. She also sent my pictures of my babies which I loved. Huge plus is she was respectful of the space and left the apartment super clean and changed out the sheets. I have high expectations and Somar was great and someone I would use again (which I rarely say).

Schedule
I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable pet care throughout the day. I have a regular walking routine with my own dog, plus fully fenced front and backyards for safe outdoor time. I’m also available to make drop-in visits to homes in my area, while keeping pets’ routines, exercise needs, and individual personalities in mind.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
In my home, pets enjoy a safe, comfortable environment with a fully fenced front and backyard, daily walks, and a calm routine alongside my own dog. I’ll follow your pet’s schedule, preferences, and comfort level so they feel at home. For care in your home, my TrustedHousesitters experience has taught me to be respectful, tidy, communicative, and mindful of your space. I’ll care for your pets and home as thoughtfully as I would my own.
