I’ve always loved being around animals and grew up with both dogs and cats. I’ve cared for pets for family and friends and really love getting to know each pet’s personality and routine! I’m pretty active and spend a lot of time walking, so I love taking dogs out for walks and letting them explore and get some energy out. I also enjoy working with dogs and taught my own some fun tricks using treats and positive reinforcement, which helped me learn patience and understanding how dogs learn/communicate. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter boxes, and just keeping pets company while their owners are away. I know it can feel stressful leaving your pet with someone new, so I always try to keep visits calm and follow their normal routine as closely as possible! I also love sending photo updates during visits so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away.
