Working with pets is one of the most fulfilling parts of my life. Animals have such genuine, loving personalities, and I truly enjoy building trust with them and becoming someone they feel safe and comfortable around. Whether it's an energetic pup who loves playtime or a shy cat who needs patience and gentle reassurance, I love learning what makes each pet unique and helping them feel relaxed while their family is away.
​
I'm a dependable, compassionate, and observant caregiver with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. From feeding routines and medications to walks, litter care, and enrichment play, I always focus on keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable while maintaining clear communication with their families.
​
What working with pets has taught me: Working with animals has taught me patience, empathy, and strong attention to detail. I've learned how to read body language, recognize when a pet needs space, and when they're ready for affection or play.
​
What I love most about working for Pet Waggin is being part of a team that truly values trust, reliability, and genuine care for animals. It feels great to work with a company that understands pets are family and holds such high standards for the way they are cared for. I also appreciate the relationships built with both pets and their owners. It's so rewarding to see pets grow more comfortable with me over time and to know their families feel at ease knowing they're in loving, capable hands.
​
Pet care tip: One helpful pet care tip I've learned over the years is how important mental stimulation can be, especially for dogs. Puzzle toys, treat-dispensing toys, or even hiding a few treats around a room for a "sniff search" can help keep pets engaged and reduce boredom or anxiety

We love Pet Waggin' and our sitters. They are always prompt and the follow up after each visit is excellent. Also they are very accommodating when needed on a short notice when changes happen.
