I have over five years of professional animal care experience including dog handler at a dog daycare, in-home dog boarding, dog walking, house sitting, and drop-in visits, and volunteering with cat rescues. I grew up surrounded by pets (dogs, cats, a lizard, fish) so animals have always been a central part of my life. Recently I lost my own dog, who had a range of medical and behavioural challenges. Caring for him taught me a level of patience and attentiveness that's hard to teach, and deepened my experience with high-needs and medically complex animals. It's also why I'm here. Being around animals brings me genuine joy, and I'd love to extend that care to yours. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I can be truly present and adaptable to your pet's routine rather than squeezing them into a busy day. I currently offer three services: 🏠 House Sitting — I stay in your home so your pets can remain in the environment they know and love. This includes feeding, toileting, walks for dogs, cleaning up any mess, and plenty of quality time and enrichment. Your home is treated with the same care and respect as my own. 🐾 Drop-In Visits — Perfect for cats, small animals, or dogs who just need a check-in. I'll engage with your pet, handle feeding and toileting, and make sure they're happy and comfortable until you're back. For all services, you can expect regular photo and video updates throughout, genuine one-on-one attention and enrichment, and a calm experienced approach with anxious, reactive, or high-needs animals. I'm available seven days a week and would love to meet your pets!
