Pet care experience
Caring for Pets Like Family
I’ve grown up with dogs in my home and have always had a genuine love for animals. Being around dogs throughout my life has given me an appreciation for how much personality each pet has and how important it is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m a responsible, patient, and attentive person who takes the time to get to know each pet and their individual routine. Whether it’s an energetic dog who needs plenty of walks and playtime, a younger pet who needs extra patience and supervision, or a senior pet who prefers a slower pace and extra attention, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I’m also very active and love getting outside, so I especially enjoy taking dogs on walks and making sure they get plenty of exercise and playtime. I’m happy to follow your instructions closely regarding meals, walks, medications, and any other routines that are important to your pet. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel like they’re in a safe and loving environment while you’re away. I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I would want for my own pets and keep you updated with photos and messages along the way!

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Tatum is great! She’s watched our Frenchies (2) multiple times and always takes great care of them! Each have their own personalities and needs. One is the old man and he just wants to cuddle on the couch. The other is our crazy girl. She always wants to play. Tatum makes them both happy. Our dogs are also a little high maintenance, health wise. We leave a list of medication instructions that seems like a mile long, but Tatum handles it with no problem.

Schedule
I work a flexible hybrid schedule, typically spending three days in the office and two days working from home. My work-from-home and in-office days are flexible, which allows me to plan my schedule around the needs and routine of the pet I’m caring for. If your pet prefers company throughout the day, I can prioritize working from home on the days they’ll be with me. On those days, I’m happy to be home with them for most of the day and provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. If your pet is comfortable being home alone for periods of time, I’m also happy to step out when needed. I also live close to my office, so even on office days I can come home during the day for a potty break, walk, feeding, or quick check-in. I’m happy to adjust how long your pet is left alone based on their age, energy level, and normal routine.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live by myself in a spacious one-bedroom apartment, which provides a comfortable and calm environment for pets to relax and feel at home. Since I live alone, your pet will have my full attention and won’t have to adjust to a busy household or multiple people coming and going. My apartment complex has a nicely sized dog run, and I’ve had consistently positive experiences with the dogs and pet owners in my community. I also live in a very walkable area, so getting outside for regular walks, potty breaks, and exercise is easy. I enjoy walking on my own as well, so I’m very comfortable getting out with a dog and making walks part of their daily routine. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs and will always follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and any boundaries or routines that help your pet feel secure. I’ll also make sure your pet has a clean, comfortable space to relax while they’re staying with me.
