I’ve had dogs and cats around me since I can remember, so this isn’t new territory for me. I know what it’s like to deal with a dog that pulls on the leash, a cat that hides from strangers, or a pet with a very specific feeding routine. Growing up with animals taught me patience and how to actually pay attention to what they’re telling you, not just go through the motions.

I’m a first year uni student, so my schedule isn’t packed like a full time job. I’m free most weekday mornings and weekend afternoons, and my walks usually run over an hour so your dog gets a real amount of time outside instead of a rushed lap around the block. If a dog seems nervous or unsure of me, I don’t force it. I keep my distance at first and let them come to me in their own time, so they can settle in without feeling pressured.

I’m comfortable taking on more than one pet at a time if it makes sense for the situation, though I always stay flexible depending on how the animals get along and what they need. Safety is something I take seriously. If anything seems off during a walk or visit, I contact you right away and can help get your pet to a vet or connect with whoever you designate if you’re not reachable.

I take both dogs and cats, any size or breed. Before the first visit, tell me anything I should know like allergies, fears, or favorite toys, and I’ll remember it. During the visit itself I send photos and messages so you can see how things are going in real time, not just a summary after the fact. If you want someone who’ll actually show up, pay attention, and keep you in the loop, I’m your person.
