I am looking forward to connecting with you. I am looking to travel to you so your baby does not have to leave the comfort of their home.

I provide detailed and attentive care tailored to each pet’s unique needs, whether in my home or a client’s. I prioritize safety by following routines closely, keeping environments clean and secure, and monitoring pets for any changes in behavior or health. I take time to build trust with each animal, ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for.

About: I have owned pets my whole life and have always felt that they were a part of my own family! As soon as I moved out on my own I got my very own official first pet! Now I have two cats and a small aquarium. I've dog sat for family throughout their animals lives. Along with healthier animals i have also had experience with dogs who have seizures and are at the later stages of their lives. My own pets are like family to me and I spend time with them each day. Besides feeding them and basic care I spend time playing with them, cuddling with them and giving them all the attention they deserve. My work schedule is flexible and I am able to change my work times to fit the needs of my pets. In my home I spend a lot of time talking and cuddling with my pets. They also get hyper at times and I play along with them with their toys or just with my hands. When dogsitting my family's animals it would depend on the animal. Some of the dogs were elderly so they would not want to walk very much and just would require some love and affection. Others were very hyper and I would play with them and walk them outside when it wasn't too hot.
