Highlights
Pet care experience
Trusted Dog Caregiver
I am a 19-year-old dog and cat lover with 8 years of experience caring for dogs. I have experience with potty training puppies, dog walking, and daily grooming such as brushing fur. I am patient, reliable, and passionate about providing loving care for every pet. I can also administer medication if needed. While I’m currently saving toward purchasing a car, I have reliable transportation options available and am more than happy to arrange a ride to and from your home when needed. Transportation won’t stop me from being there for you and your pet, and I’m always willing to make the extra effort to provide dependable and loving care. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment
I do not offer pet care in my own home, but when caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine. I always make sure pets are in a secure environment and closely supervise them during walks and activities. I believe it’s better to be safe than sorry, and I will treat your dog with the same love, care, and attention that I would give my own pet.

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I currently have a flexible schedule while attending school. I’m available most weekdays for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. On weekends, I have the most time and flexibility, so I’m especially available for overnight pet sitting and can dedicate more time to providing attentive care. Although I’m currently saving toward purchasing a car, I have reliable temporary transportation options and can arrange transportation to and from an owner’s home when needed. I’m committed to being dependable, flexible, and attentive to each pet’s needs while making things as convenient as possible for their owner.

- I’m a patient, understanding, and caring person who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs. My experience has taught me to pay close attention to each dog’s personality, needs, and comfort level. I’m also a quick learner and a strong problem solver, so I can stay calm and think quickly when unexpected situations come up. I treat every dog with the same love, patience, and care I would give my own. One thing I really appreciate is when owners are specific about their dog’s routine, medications, special needs, or any recommendations and requests. The more details you provide, the better I can understand your dog and make sure they receive the safest and best care possible.
