About: I have grown up surrounded by all sorts of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, bearded dragons, chickens, and more, which sparked my lifelong passion for animal care. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Animal Science from Virginia Tech, where I deepened my knowledge of animal health, behavior, and management. Additionally, I worked for three years in a veterinary hospital, where I gained hands-on experience assisting with medical procedures, patient care, and client education. These experiences have provided me with a strong foundation in animal science and care across a wide range of species. I’m an Animal Science teacher currently on summer break, and I’m looking to fill my time with puppy love and long walks. Growing up with all kinds of animals and earning my degree in Animal Science from Virginia Tech, I’ve always had a deep love and understanding of animals. With three years of hands-on experience working in a veterinary hospital, I’m comfortable handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m reliable, flexible, and excited to spend my free time giving dogs the care, attention, and exercise they deserve. Safety and trust are my top priorities when it comes to animals in the home. My time at home with pets is always filled with playtime, cuddles, belly rubs, and plenty of attention. I create a loving, secure environment where animals feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. There’s rarely a moment when I’m not either snuggling with a dog, playing fetch, or simply making sure they feel safe and loved. Building trust through kindness, consistency, and gentle care is at the heart of every interaction I have with animals.

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. They truly are a man’s bestfriend. At home I have a beautiful white lab, he is 95lbs of pure love thinking he’s a lapdog. I also have a King Charles Cavalier that is the princess of the house. She is so happy and spunky and keeps us all laughing. Previously I have owned Cocker Spaniels, other Labs and a Maltese. I started dogsitting when I was 11 years old. I had just arrived at my grandparents house and I saw this little dog wandering around and he ran right to me and I saw the owner walking towards me up the road. The puppy let me pick him up and we walked all the way to the owner. He and his wife were pilots so whenever they were flying I was working and I was ecstatic to have my first job looking after their two dogs. Through the years I’ve done Bathing, walks, feeding, medications, shots , vet trips, etc. I truly love dogs and seeing them happy, and giving their families peace of mind that their beloved pups will be well loved while they are gone. I send texts and pictures of each visit and keep in communication with the family. If you choose to trust me with your four legged family member I guarantee they will be well taken care of and loved. I am a teacher so I have Summers to offer. My Schedule throughout the school year fills up so book in advance because I also do tutoring, and nannying throughout the week. I would love to meet you and your pup. Just reach out! I will not be able to have any dogs in my home personally because of home owner restrictions. In the clients home I would provide feelings, walks, medication, or whatever else the puppy would need. If there is a history of dogfights or biting I am not the person for you.
