Pet care experience

Grace

I’ve grown up with yellow labs my whole life, so caring for dogs has always come naturally to me! My current lab is 6 years old, and my previous lab lived to 16, so I have experience with both energetic puppies and sweet senior dogs. I know every dog has their own personality and pace, and I’m very patient, attentive, and loving with all ages. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, belly rubs, or just relaxing with company, I’m happy to match their vibe. I genuinely love being around animals and making them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Expect lots of playtime, attention, and photo updates :)

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. In a client’s home, I do my best to keep their normal routine the same, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I’m very attentive, patient, and respectful of both pets and homes, and I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I also understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos!

Schedule

I’m currently a student and on summer break, so I have a very flexible schedule and lots of availability! I’m available for drop-ins, walks, daytime care, and overnights. Pet care fits easily into my routine, especially during the summer when I love spending time outside enjoying the Michigan sun and nice weather.

Before caring for a pet, I like to know their routine, personality, energy level, and if they need any medications or special care. It’s also helpful to know their favorite activities, toys, or anything that helps them feel comfortable and relaxed. Every pet is different, and I enjoy getting to know their personality so they feel safe and happy.
