About: I’m a Great Dane mom and had 4 dogs in my life. I love dogs and have a lot of experience taking care of them. I'm reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to making sure dogs are safe and happy. With me, your furry friend will get the best care and companionship. I’m currently on my summer break as a nursing student so I have all my time with your fur babies. I’m free 24/7 when I’m not traveling I had my giant Great Dane abused by sitters. That’s what made me want to be a sitter. I hope all fur babies are loved and be happy when the owners cannot be around.
About: I’ve spent the last 3 years fostering 8 dogs, to socialize, basic train, and help them transition into their forever homes. My husband and I have two dogs, our forever loves Prim & Appa. I have experience not only raising my pups but also potty training, reinforcing basic training, building trust with the dogs I foster and look after. My experience is with puppies, young, and adult dogs and my goal is to make sure they get plenty of exercise and love while their parents are away. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and can easily build pet care into my day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening playtime, I’m able to give pups the attention they need throughout the day. My weekly routine is open enough to accommodate regular visits or last-minute requests. Whether I’m caring for your pup in your home or taking them for a walk, their safety and comfort come first. I follow your instructions closely -meals, meds, routines, and house rules - because consistency helps them feel secure. I keep a calm, clean, and loving environment, and I’m always tuned into their behavior so I can catch any changes early. I treat every dog like my own, with lots of love, patience, and respect for their unique needs.
