Putting your pets first!

Pet care experience

As a pet parent myself, I know how hard it can be to put your trust into someone to take care of your pets. They are family after all! I aim to provide a reliable, safe, and enriching experience take the stress out of the process for both you and your pets. I have been around animals all my life and am a proud paw-rent to Bobo (80 lbs Am-Staff Mix rescue) and previously to Winston (American Shorthair). I have experience working with large dogs, reactive dogs, bully dog breeds, and senior cats. I approach pet sitting and walking with compassion and I enjoy getting know each pet through games and outdoor time. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out!

Safety, trust & environment

I believe that each cat and dog has their own needs and personalities. As I get to know your pets, I will accommodate those needs and provide individualized care to them. Whether that be long walks/hikes for the adventurous pup, some laid-back company and ear scratches for the relaxing cat, or fun games for the puppy with infinite energy, I can adapt to make sure they have a satisfying time. As the owner, you know your pets best. If there is something you’d like me to be aware of on your pets’ daily routine or personality, I encourage that feedback so I can better meet you and your pets’ needs. While pet sitting or on walks, accidents can happen. In that case, I’m available to clean up your pets and the mess during the service. My approach is to treat your pets and house with respect so that you can go about your day and trips worry-free. I’m also a detail-oriented person who is comfortable following specific medication, feeding, and walking instructions.

Information Tina W. would like to know about your pet

I like to know your pup's routine so I can do my best to provide a consistent structure for them even when they're with me. I would also like to know their likes, dislikes, and triggers if any. If they take any medications or have a strict walking/potty schedule, please also let me know.

A typical day

I try to make sure that the typical day I have with your pet looks like their typical day so they feel comfortable and at home as much as possible. If they like to play games, I like to play tug-of-war, sniff-and-find, fetch, and hide and seek. If they like to go outside, I love to take them on walks and let them go on a "sniffari" and let their nose lead the way. Some of my favorite places are Rowlett Park, Al Lopez Park, and Bayshore Boulevard, and Lettuce Lake Park. I definitely defer to routes that your pets are used to and that you recommend. These are all great way for your pets to get some mental and physical enrichment
