About: What sets me apart is the calm, family-oriented environment I provide and my flexible schedule. I’m home often, so pets get lots of attention and aren’t left alone for long. I’m patient, gentle, and good at reading animal behavior—especially with shy or high-energy dogs. I’ve cared for puppies and dogs with strong personalities, so I know how to stay calm and consistent. Plus, my kids love animals and are always respectful and supervised around them, which creates a loving and interactive space for your pet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Since I work part-time and have a flexible schedule, I’m home often and able to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m used to planning my day around the needs of the pets I care for—whether that means regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or just making sure they’re comfortable and not alone for too long. My kids are also a big help with giving lots of love and gentle affection. Our home is a calm, safe space, and I’m happy to adjust our routine to meet the needs of your pet. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. In my home, they get plenty of attention, playtime, and a kid-friendly environment. I follow their routine closely—meals, walks, and any special needs.
