About: I have taken care of dogs ranging from a Maltese to a pit bull since I was 9 years old. I was responsible for giving my dogs food and water before going to school and to give the dogs a bath when needed. I was responsible for taking the dogs on walks around our neighborhood. I'm currently home from college for the summer and am not available from 10am-8pm on Sundays and Wednesdays or 3pm-8pm on Thursdays and Saturdays. Sometimes it may vary when I am available but can let you know in a quick message on the app! In my client's home, I would ensure that the dog has food and water if needed while I am there. The dog would be taken out on walks to ensure they are getting exercise and can use the bathroom. While I am with the dog I would play and keep them company.

About: As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve grown up in a home where we always had up to five dogs at a time—ranging from tiny lap pups to large, energetic breeds. I’m very comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I have plenty of experience keeping up with high-energy pets who love to run, play, and explore. There’s nothing better than seeing the pure joy on a dog’s face during a good walk or a fun play session! I’m a firefighter/EMT, which means I work 24-hour shifts—but only about 9 days each month. This gives me plenty of free time on my days off, and I’m often available for pet care during weekdays and weekends. My schedule allows me to be dependable, responsive, and flexible, especially for last-minute bookings or ongoing care needs. My fiancée and I share our home with two Australian Shepherds and a Border Collie—so I’m no stranger to energetic, intelligent dogs that need daily exercise and mental stimulation. Even on our busiest days, we make sure our dogs are well-fed, loved, and cared for. I bring that same level of commitment to every pet I look after. You can trust that your furry family members will be treated with the same care, attention, and love that I give my own.
