Highlights
Pet care experience
Raised with animals, at ease w dogs
I grew up with a house full of animals: a black lab, chickens, goats, bunnies, turtles, snakes, and guinea pigs. That meant daily feeding routines, extensive coop and cage cleaning, all different types of playtime, and learning to read each animal's mood and body language, from a nervous rabbit to an excited lab. Because I grew up with such a wide mix, I adapt fast and pay close attention to what each individual animal needs. Dogs are where I feel most at home. I've always had a natural connection with them, and they tend to warm up to me right away. I know how to read a dog's energy, give them the attention and exercise they need, and make sure they feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. For me, this isn't just a job. It's genuinely one of my favorite things to do!

Schedule
I recently graduated and am currently job searching, which means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time and energy to give to pet care right now. I'm able to offer consistent attention throughout the day, whether that's multiple walks, playtime, or just being present, without having to squeeze visits around a 9-to-5. It's a great season for me to be really available and engaged for your dog, and I'll keep my profile updated as my schedule evolves.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
On walks and drop-in visits, your dog stays on their normal routine, same feeding times, same walk schedule, plus any specific instructions you leave me. I always check the space first so everything stays exactly as you left it. When your dog boards at my place, they get my full attention with no other pets around to compete for space or affection. My yard isn't fenced, so outdoor time is on leash to keep things safe, and indoors I keep things calm and familiar so the stay doesn't feel disruptive. Throughout any visit, I'm watching your dog's body language and energy, not just going through the motions, so I can catch anything off and keep them comfortable the whole time. Depending on your preference, I'll also send photo or text updates so you can see how they're doing while you're away.
