Whether it’s a high-energy husky or a shy senior pug, I tailor every walk or visit to your pet’s unique needs and personality.

I’m always on time, easy to reach, and happy to send photo updates after every walk! Please feel free to reach out! Pet care is an important and consistent part of my weekly routine, even though my part-time job schedule changes week to week. I keep my Rover calendar up to date and always communicate clearly about my availability so pet parents know exactly when I’m free. Most weeks, I’m available for morning or evening walks, drop-in visits, and weekends I’m very open. I’m always happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pet is cared for when you need it. Safety and trust are at the heart of how I care for every pet. Whether I’m visiting your home or welcoming your pet into mine, I make sure they feel secure, comfortable, and cared for at all times.

About: I have had experience with pet care since I was a kid. Growing up, my family always had pets, including dogs, cats, and even some small rodents. I was responsible for feeding them, taking them for walks, and ensuring they had a clean and safe environment. As I got older, I gained more knowledge about pet health and wellness, and I even volunteered at local animal shelters to help care for abandoned or injured animals. This hands-on experience has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and responsibility when it comes to taking care of pets. I truly enjoy being around animals and providing them with the love and care they deserve. I currently work 2 jobs so im normally free all day Mondays, Tuesday evenings and Thursday's as well so i do have available schedule just message me and we can go from there I own 2 dogs currently live with 4 and i actively train them everyday.I like challenging my own pets minds because it helps them think for themselves But also keeping me happy because i already know they do the right thing when im there and not there to watch them.Caring for other people pets i like to do what makes the owner comfortable or even teach them something they didn't know before.

About: We have a home where I have cared for and given a loving family to dogs and cats for years. We believe in a safe and playful environment for all animals upbringing. I only work part time and also work from home so I am able to pretty much dedicate all my attention to the animals when they need it. I have a fenced yard in my home where I can keep the pups stimulated with play time occasionally. If I have other dogs I'll make sure they get along but if need be separated. I mostly wfh and am trying to accommodate busy people by making last minute bookings so I'm pretty much available whenever it is convenient for you. In my home, I make sure to provide plenty of love and attention to all pets in my care. This includes feeding them on a regular schedule, providing access to fresh water, and giving them opportunities for exercise and play. I also make sure to keep the living space clean and comfortable for them. When providing services like house visits or house sitting, I follow the same routine as in my own home and also follow any specific instructions or guidelines provided by the pet's owner. If the pet is staying with me for an extended period of time, like during a boarding service, I also make sure to take them on regular walks and provide them with mental stimulation through activities. As mentioned, I have a fenced yard and able to put them on a playpen for their safety and comfort if necessary.
