I am generally available on week nights and can check in on your dog multiple times each day. I can care for your dog by letting them outside during your preferred times, taking them for walks, cleaning them, and playing with them. I am able to work with multiple dogs as well!

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. As a child, I dreamed of becoming a veterinarian, and while my path later shifted toward human medicine, my appreciation for animals and caregiving has never changed. Caring for creatures both great and small has always been meaningful to me. I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of animals. I worked at the Natick Organic Community Farm, where I helped care for farm animals and learned the importance of consistency, patience, and attentiveness in animal care. I also spent many years helping take care of my grandfather’s English Setter, Posey — including regular walks, feeding, and companionship — especially as my grandfather became less steady on his feet. In addition, I grew up with cats from the age of eight and am very comfortable with feline care, routines, and personalities. I’ve graduated with majors in Biology and French with a minor in Fine Arts and completed the pre-med track at GWU. I live in Wellesley, MA, for my gap year. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and calm under pressure. These qualities that are especially important to me as someone pursuing a career in healthcare. I treat every pet as an individual and aim to provide attentive, gentle, and dependable care so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I have flexible weekend and weekday availability, easy access to public transportation, and a genuine love for animals. I’m especially happy to help with midday walks, check-ins, and routine care while you’re at work. Specifically, I have free time: Tues: 8am-10am, 3pm-9pm Wed: 8am-11am, 2pm-9pm Thurs: 8am-10am, 3pm-9pm Friday: 8am-9am, 1pm-6pm I prioritize safety, comfort, and a calm environment for every pet. In my home or the client’s, I make sure all spaces are secure, litter boxes are clean, food and water are fresh, and pets are supervised at all times. I follow each pet’s routine closely, provide plenty of attention and enrichment, and check in with owners regularly to keep them updated. I treat every pet as if they were my own, creating a trustworthy, loving, and stress-free environment.
