About: I have taken care of dogs, large and small, for roommates, friends, family, and neighbors. Care has included pet sitting, boarding, and walking as well as potty breaks for pets with busy parents. I have also cared for a senior pet of my own as well as a pet with additional needs. I previously helped train golden retrievers for hunting competitions and cared for several litters of puppies. I also volunteered for my hometown’s animal shelter. In short, I love animals and have extensive experience caring for them. I am detail-oriented, caring, and committed to providing the best care for your furry friends while also ensuring that they have a great time! I work with all dogs, from those that fit in the palm of your hand to those that are 100 lb+. I also have a high-energy dog and understand how to care for similar breeds. Please message me to inquire how I can provide the best care for your pet. P.S. Please enjoy the photos of the pups I have taken care of over the years! I am a graduate student at Auburn University (War Eagle!) with a very flexible schedule. Most of my time is spent working from home with classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11:00 am - 4:00 pm. I am available to walk dogs and do drop-ins during the week and on weekends (with the exception of Tuesday and Thursday afternoons) and can house-sit overnight on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights.

At your home, I can ensure your pets stay on their routine while ensuring they get the amount of activity and care that they need. If you are also wanting your pet(s) to get some playtime with other animals, I have two friendly dogs who love to play with other dogs and who can play together, whether at a dog park or elsewhere (please inquire!).

About: Dog sitting is a hobby of mine, I have done this for roughly 8 years for friends & family, excited to extent my services to new clients. Pet care is a regular part of my routine, even with my full-time job from 7 to 4. In the mornings before work, I make sure to feed my pet, refresh their water, and take them out for a walk or bathroom break. After work, I spend quality time with them—whether it’s a longer walk, playtime, or just relaxing together. I’ve built pet care into my daily habits so their needs are always met reliably. In my home, I maintain a safe, pet-friendly environment. I have a fully fenced yard and a medium-sized dog door that allows pets to go outside for bathroom breaks or fresh air as needed, which helps them stay comfortable and active throughout the day. I follow a consistent routine that includes feeding, exercise, playtime, and affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their routine and instructions closely. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, get enough exercise, and feel safe in their environment. I pay attention to details like cleaning up after them, refreshing water, and keeping their living space tidy and secure.
