I’ve been fostering dogs and cats for years through a local rescue and volunteering with the Humane Society of Charlotte. I’ve helped so many pets find loving homes, and through it all, I’ve gotten to know animals of all kinds. Nervous rescues, high-energy puppies, older dogs who just want their routine. I’ve seen it all and loved them all. As a fellow pet parent, I totally get how nerve-wracking it can feel to leave your fur baby with someone else. That’s why I go out of my way to make sure you feel at ease and your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Here’s what I always include: Safety first – I follow your instructions carefully and treat your home and pet like my own. Tons of experience – Fostering, volunteering, pet-sitting—you name it. I’ve got it covered. Updates whenever you want – Photos, messages, little check-ins. If you want to see your pup’s face, I’ll send it. Play, walks, cuddles – I match your pet’s energy. If they’re playful, we play. If they’re snuggly, I’m ready. Routines matter – I’ll stick to your schedule, help with meds, and handle any special instructions with care. Calm vibes – I’m a second grade teacher, so patience is basically my superpower—and yes, it works with dogs too. Open on weekends If you have any questions, special routines, or just want to get a feel for things first—just reach out! I’m happy to talk it through so you feel 100% good about everything. Can’t wait to meet your pets!
