About: Hi! I’m a certified canine trainer with experience ranging from basic obedience to working dogs trained in scent detection, tracking, and behavior modification. I’m comfortable with all breeds, including reactive or aggressive dogs, and always focus on safe, individualized care. I also have a background in veterinary medicine with hands-on experience administering medications, monitoring vitals, wound care, and post-operative support. Every pet in my care is treated as if they were my own. I work three 12-hour hospital shifts per week and am away from 6:30 AM–8:00 PM on workdays. My schedule is created about 6 weeks in advance, so if you book far enough ahead, I can often tailor my availability to best fit your pet’s needs. Otherwise, I’m a great fit for pets comfortable being alone during that time or with someone available to stop by once while I’m working. On my off days, I have much more flexibility and availability. I’d love to be a reliable, experienced caregiver for your pet. I currently work three 12-hour shifts each week at Lakeland Regional Health, and while those workdays rotate weekly, I still have consistent availability. I also attend school two days a week for just a few hours, which means I have plenty of flexibility to offer pet care services. Because my work schedule changes weekly, I’m able to plan pet sitting, walks, and drop-ins around your pet’s specific needs. Whether it’s early morning routines, evening check-ins, or full-day companionship, I do my best to be available when it matters most. On my days off, I dedicate uninterrupted time to giving pets the attention, structure, and love they deserve. Creating a safe and comfortable environment is my top priority—whether your pet is in my home or I’m caring for them in yours. In my home, I use secure kennels to provide pets with a cozy, structured space, especially during rest periods or overnight stays. For transport, I have two large, crash-tested Ruffland kennels in my vehicle to ensure every ride is as safe as possible. When caring for pets in their own home, I take every effort to follow your instructions to the letter. I believe consistency is key, so I maintain your pet’s routine—from feeding times and walks to their favorite toys or sleeping spots. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness always come first.
“Our cats - and we - loved Joshua! Even our kind-of-shy girl warmed up to him quickly. He sent great pictures of them getting pets and play time, along with a detailed Rover report card. He was on-time each time he came to our house & we're getting ready to book him again. I'd definitely recommend Joshua :)”
“Isabella was great with our pups! I could tell from the photos she sent that they were happy to hangout with her. She was responsive and very sweet. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Tamara is the best pet sitter! Reliable, trustworthy, and excellent communication. Thank you for taking such good care of Pepper and Blizzard. The next time we are in need of a pet sitter, you are definitely my first choice. Thanks again Tamara😊”
“Kim was INCREDIBLE! I have a ragdoll kitty who is very needy! I work from home and had NEVER left him alone overnight. Our first trip away was EIGHT nights!! I was so stressed to leave him and had no idea what to expect! I had Kim come over in the morning and the evening - when he follows us around like a puppy dog! She loved on him, played with him, gave him treats and even brushed him daily!!! He got all the love he needed and after a couple visits by Kim I felt 100% at ease and no stress at all! I will be hiring her every single time from this point on! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
“Matt and Nicole did a wonderful job taking care of my cats. It was so great getting pictures everyday and they took so many great ones! It’s nice not having to worry that your pets are fed and taken care of. I’d definitely ask for them again!”

I am a 28, and am very understanding of what a dog needs, and will always keep their emotions, safety and energy level all into focus for them to have the best time possible that is beneficial to them! I am known to aimlessly walk around the streets of nyc, letting the city call towards different spots it wants me to see, a perfect quality for walking lovely dogs! I have three family dogs, one older American Eskimo, and two Border Collies under the age of two, meaning I am still pretty equip and up to date with handling puppies. My baby sister turns 12 in May and is a type 1 diabetic! Through this experience, I want to help find her the perfect diabetic dog to aid in her growth! I used to have a senior dog who passed away from cancer (bless his soul) but in his final stages, we crafted such a lovely last year of his life through love, support and comfort.

I can't wait to meet, play and love your furry friends :) I have a very relaxed schedule, so I am easily accommodating and eager to help out! This is a full time job for me, as I have had over 193 clients over the past 6 years! I have a fenced yard and 3 other dogs inside of my own family home! If they want friendship, we can have playtime. If not, I can crate my own if needed for the safety of everyone involved!

They are in good hands with Bethany! Highly recommend!”
