Pet care experience
Trusted & Attentive Care
Hi! I’m a dependable pet sitter and dog walker with 25 five-star reviews and a focus on calm, reliable care that keeps pets comfortable in their normal routine and environment. In addition to hands-on pet care experience, I completed three months of professional dog training education through CATCH Canine Trainers Academy, where I studied canine learning theory, behavior, body language, and positive reinforcement training methods. I also spent three months working in a dog daycare environment, gaining daily hands-on experience managing dogs of various ages, breeds, temperaments, and play styles while implementing positive training techniques and observing canine behavior in group settings. I provide thoughtful overnight house sitting, structured walks, and attentive drop-in visits for dogs and cats of all temperaments, including puppies, adolescent dogs, seniors, and multi-pet households. My background in dog behavior helps me recognize stress signals, understand canine communication, and tailor my approach to each pet's individual needs. I understand how important it is to leave your pets—and your home—with someone you genuinely trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. My approach is calm, communicative, and detail-oriented. I keep owners updated with regular photos and check-ins while making sure pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a structured walk, extra patience with training foundations, or simply a consistent routine while you're traveling, I strive to provide care that supports both their physical and emotional well-being. I also treat every home with the same respect and cleanliness I would expect in my own. I especially enjoy building long-term relationships with pet owners who value dependable care, clear communication, and a low-stress experience for both themselves and their pets. Looking forward to meeting you and your animals!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I focus on keeping pets comfortable, relaxed, and as close to their normal routine as possible. In a client’s home, I follow their usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any specific care instructions so pets feel safe and settled while their owner is away. I make sure dogs get exercise, attention, and bathroom breaks throughout the day, and I give cats plenty of calm attention and care while respecting their individual personalities and space. I also keep owners updated with regular photos and messages so they know their pets are doing well. I treat every home with respect, keep things clean and tidy, and aim to create a calm, low-stress environment for both pets and owners.
Ratings and reviews
Tricia did a great job caring for our puppy Lucie, who is crate training and potty training, which is no easy job! She was respectful of our home and would highly recommend her!
Tricia was great! I will be using her again
10/10 Reccomend! I would book Tricia again in a heartbeat. Our little puppy Lennox absolutely adored her. She was super flexible, caring, respectful, and we especially loved her awesome communication and frequent updates. We would feel comfortable leaving our a little pup with her any time! Thank you again Tricia, you really helped us during this tough puppy period. You are much appreciated -? Roe, Jackson, & Lennox
Tricia was friendly and flexible, and took good care of our fur babies :)
Finding someone to care for the animals that you love and protect, while you're gone, is an important and sometimes difficult task. Finding Tricia was a blessing. She is professional, reliable and most importantly caring. She cared for my dog Riley ,who is old and blind like he was her best friend. I highly recommend Tricia to take care of your pets. PBG- Bend
