About: I have grown up around both cats and dogs of all sizes and personalities. I was raised with German Shepherds, so I am very familiar with working and protection breeds and understand how to read their body language, respect boundaries, and build trust properly. I volunteer at the humane society where I work with a wide variety of dogs and cats, including high-energy, shy, and more reactive animals. This has helped me learn how to adapt to each pet’s needs and personality. I have experience caring for large dogs (100+ lbs), small breeds, puppies, senior dogs, and cats. I have also fostered a pit bull, which gave me experience managing higher-energy dogs that need structure, patience, and mental stimulation. I am comfortable administering medications, caring for pets after procedures like spay/neuter, and handling both playful and more reserved animals. I pay close attention to behavior, routines, and small details to make sure pets stay happy, safe, and comfortable. I am currently a full time student but my schedule is flexible and open. I can check mornings briefly but afternoons and evenings I can spend more time! I have both cats and a dog, so I’m very used to maintaining a consistent routine and making sure pets get the attention, care, and structure they need. I follow feeding schedules closely and always make time for play, exercise, and affection. I understand that pets can feel stressed when their owners are away, so I focus on creating a calm, comfortable environment and keeping their routine as normal as possible. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe and cared for at all times.
