About: I’ve taken care of my friends dogs for years. I also have my own. Will love your baby like they are my own. Have lots of toys for them to play with as well. And get treats when my dog pepper gets treats. If you are ok with that. I am off nights and weekends, so they will be all free. I work full time, plus in school online full time so spend lots of time at home when I’m not working. I have a fenced in yard. I also have a dog that has been around many other dogs and she is so friendly. Take her to Metazoa dog park frequently in the summer time. I let my dog roam when I am not home, but also have a very large laundry room to keep your dog either in a crate, or free if you worry about them being free together around the house. Whatever you are comfy with. I only have one dog, but about 6 dog beds from keeping my friends dogs, so they will sleep like a King or Queen 🥰

About: I’ve cared for my own dog for 10 years, which taught me a lot about daily pet responsibilities and the bond animals form with us. For the past two years, I’ve also volunteered at the Humane Society, where I walk dogs, clean kennels, and help care for cats. This hands-on experience has helped me become confident handling a variety of animal temperaments and needs. I bring patience, attentiveness, and a real love for animals to every interaction. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care to ensure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and affection. I start my mornings with feeding and walking, followed by playtime or any special care needed throughout the day. Evenings are dedicated to another walk, meals, and winding down with cuddles or calm time. I maintain a flexible schedule to meet each pet’s unique needs. I prioritize safety by pet-proofing my environment, removing any harmful items, and creating a calm and clean space. I follow the pet parent’s instructions carefully and ensure routines are maintained. Whether in my home or theirs, I monitor pets closely, provide positive reinforcement, and keep them comfortable with familiar items like their toys or bedding. I also keep emergency contacts and a vet plan ready at all times.
