I work as a part time dog trainer, and I am currently going to college to study animal behavior and psychology. I have two dogs, three cats, and two bunnies of my own, so it's safe to say I am more than equipped to handle anything at this point!! Animals are my entire world, and my dream is to open my own rescue one day. I'd love to help your fur babies while you're away to make them feel comfortable and loved:)

A typical day

If your dog is okay in the car, I love to spoil them with mini adventures to get pup cups, take a walk in the park, go swimming, etc! Just let me know what your dog likes (and dislikes) and I’d love to incorporate that into their visit:)

Pet care experience

I’m a certified dog trainer with 4 rescue pups (and a cat) of my own, so a bit of chaos is no stranger to me ;) I’ve made it my life’s mission to give animals the best lives they can, and I understand that their time on Earth with us is limited. I want to make sure that your pet is in the best hands while you’re away and give them the care they deserve❤️ I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10, and before I became a dog trainer, I worked at a kennel, daycare, and boarding facility. In fact- I’m going to college to study animal behavior now in Saint Petersburg, FL! Your four-legged child is my top priority, and I’m very flexible to meet their needs because every animal is different!

Sydney did such a lovely job caring for my three dogs. They loved her immediately and I could tell she is so gentle and sweet with them.
