Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable & Caring Dog Walker
I’ve always had a huge love for animals and have 4 years of experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and always make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I live in a cozy one-bedroom apartment in East Lansing with access to walking trails and a fenced-in dog park right within my community, so there are plenty of opportunities for walks, fresh air, playtime, and exercise. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, whether that means longer walks, lots of playtime, feeding schedules, cuddle time, or just having someone nearby to keep them company. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I’ll treat your dog like one of my own and keep you updated along the way. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pup is safe, happy, and getting plenty of love. 🐾❤️

Schedule
My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to provide consistent and attentive care for pets throughout the week. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting on weekdays and weekends. I’m happy to work with each owner’s schedule to make sure their pets receive the care, attention, and exercise they need. I also do my best to accommodate last-minute bookings whenever possible.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding, routines, medications, and exercise. I make sure pets are supervised, safe, and comfortable at all times. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and walks while maintaining a calm and secure environment. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.
A typical day
A typical day with me is structured around your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. We’ll start with feeding and a potty break, followed by a walk or playtime to burn off energy. Throughout the day, I include enrichment activities like toys, games, and lots of attention so they stay mentally stimulated. I make sure they get plenty of rest, fresh water, and affection. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing!

- Before caring for your pet, I like to know their daily routine, energy level, and any special needs or behaviors. Please share details about feeding schedules, medications, allergies, triggers, and how they interact with other animals or people. I also like to know their favorite activities, toys, and any training cues you use so I can keep things consistent. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable and cared for as they do with you.
