About: I have had animals my entire life. I have always been a huge animal lover. I have a dog sad for many different people. A lot of people I know who have dogs tell me that they usually don’t like or are nervous around other people outside of their family, but they are comfortable with me. my dogs are my babies and I love them more than anything so when I am taking care of someone else’s pet, I treat them the same way I would treat mine because that’s someone else’s baby and they trusted me to take care of them. I am currently in school at COS so Monday through Thursday I will not be available until after noon. However, anytime after that will be available. I cannot offer any pet sitting in my home however, I will do it in the comfort of your own home. I will care for the pet by the instructions. I am given by their owners. I will gladly take them on long walks, to the dog park, or simply play with them in the house or backyard.

About: As a Registered Veterinary Technician with over 10 years of experience, I bring both professional training and a genuine love for animals to every pet I care for. Whether it's giving medications, helping senior pets feel comfortable, or keeping up with a playful puppy, I’ve done it all—and I truly enjoy it! I know how to spot when something isn’t quite right and how to make pets feel calm and cared for. Your pet isn’t just getting a sitter—they’re getting someone who will treat them like family, make sure they’re safe, happy, and maybe even a little spoiled while you’re away. As a full-time Registered Veterinary Technician, caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life—it’s not just a job, it’s truly what I love. I regularly offer walks, drop-ins, and check-ins before or after my shifts, and I’m also available during lunch hours for quick visits or mid-day potty breaks. On weekends and holidays, I’m often even more flexible. My schedule is structured, but I make it a priority to fit in quality time with the pets I care for. Whether it’s a morning walk, a lunch-time cuddle, or an evening check-in, I’m committed to making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. When I welcome pets into my home for boarding, I treat them like part of the family. I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and burn off energy whenever they want. I do my best to keep their routine just like they’re used to—whether that’s regular feeding times, walks, play sessions, or plenty of quiet downtime. My home is warm and pet-friendly, designed to help them feel safe and comfortable. With over 10 years of experience as a Registered Veterinary Technician, I’m prepared to handle any medical needs or special care your pet might require. Most importantly, I provide lots of love, attention, and positive vibes to make their stay fun and stress-free. I also keep pet parents updated regularly so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in great hands.
