Walking pups on my vet school path

Pet care experience

I’ve been around animals my whole life and have always loved taking care of them. I have a dog of my own and have helped care for pets of all kinds, from neighborhood pups to family cats. I’ve participated in dog training classes, I’m certified in animal CPR, and I’m currently a biology major studying to become a veterinarian. So this isn’t just something I enjoy-it’s something I’m truly passionate about. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I always try to make them feel safe, loved, and understood. Whether it’s a walk, a check-in, or just some company while you’re away, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own.

Safety, trust & environment

I’m super mindful about keeping pets safe and comfortable, whether I’m in your home or out on a walk. I always follow care instructions closely, and I’m trained in animal CPR, so I’m prepared for emergencies (just in case!). I’ve also taken pet training classes, so I know how to read behavior and respond calmly if a pup gets nervous or overly excited. My goal is always to make your pet feel secure and happy - and to leave you feeling totally at ease, too.

I’m a college student with a pretty flexible schedule, so I have lots of time during the week and weekends to hang out with your pets. Walks, check-ins, playtime - I’m happy to fit it into my day. I love being outside and active, so spending time with animals is honestly the best part of my routine.
