We are officially done with week 1 of me going back to the office and Arin taking care of our high energy 14 week puppy during the lunch hour and things have been great! Arin always provides updates and has been very patient as we work through all of the training and teething going on at this stage. :)

Mark was super amazing while taking care of my two boys! This is the longest I’ve left them and Mark made me feel at ease. I received notes and pictures daily, and the cats looked happy. As my trip was ending, Mark made sure to check in with me and told me to let him know if anything came up. Unfortunately, something did come up and my flight was canceled, and I wouldn’t be able to return for another day. Mark was flexible and able to check in an additional day. It meant so much to me and relieved some of the anxiety and stressed caused by the cancelation. I’ve really loved working with Mark and I’m looking forward to working with him again!

About: I’m confident giving medications, injections, and providing gentle care for elderly or special-needs pets. While I don’t have much experience with reactive dogs, I’m very comfortable with quirky cats—my own has quite the attitude! Your pets will be safe, loved, and well cared for. Hi! I’m a nurse and doctoral student with two dogs, two cats, and a flexible schedule. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays—especially mornings, evenings, and weekends. With 5+ years of experience and a calm, loving approach, I’m here to make sure your pets are safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m also comfortable giving meds and caring for senior pets. Let’s chat! I have two sweet, social dogs who are leash and e-collar trained—we get lots of exercise through walks and fetch! I also have two very opinionated indoor cats: one shy, one sassy, both obsessed with running water and treats. My crew mostly lives in harmony (with the occasional drama, of course). I’m happy to share my amazing trainer’s info if you’re interested! I love helping other pet parents feel confident their fur babies are well cared for.

About: I treat every dog or cat as if it’s my own. I will love on them all day long. I have a mini aussie so I’m very used to high energy dogs and keeping them entertained. I’ve taken care of all different types of breeds from small pups to large pups and I love them all. I’m very comfortable with all dogs whether they’re playful or shy. I have a pretty flexible schedule during the week. I work during the weekdays as a babysitter assisting with after school care, but get off at 6. Other than work or maybe an occasional doctors appointment, I’m free plenty throughout the day to watch your pup. I really enjoy spending quality time with dogs and want to create a safe, comfortable, environment for them to be in. I love to be able to socialize your dog with others and take them to the dog park or on walks on nature trails. Depending on what your dog’s typical schedule is, I can always accommodate it.

If you’re lucky enough to book with her, your pet is in the best hands possible. She’s not just a natural with animals—she’s a deeply attentive, loving, and intuitive caregiver. From early morning walks to late-night cuddles, she makes sure each one of them feels safe, happy, and genuinely loved. She’s the kind of person who notices the tiniest changes in their behavior, adjusts their care if they seem off, and never cuts corners. Whether it’s giving medications, preparing a special diet, or just spending extra time with a shy or anxious pet, she meets each animal where they are with patience and compassion. She’s also incredibly responsible and communicative. You’ll get updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is being cared for like family.
