Waterloo

dogSitting

I am a long-time Waterloo resident known by neighbors as a dependable "safe pair of hands" for their pets. I genuinely enjoy the steady, calm energy dogs bring to a day and believe in providing a structured, happy environment where they can truly thrive. My approach is simple: I provide calm, steady companionship so your dog feels settled and well-exercised while you're away. Whether your pup is high-energy or on the shy side, I focus on building trust through a predictable routine and a patient, positive attitude.
What to Expect:

Active Play: I typically provide one hour of outside play exploring local trees and fields.
Nervous Pets: I am patient with shy dogs and use gentle enrichment activities to help them feel secure and build confidence.
Medications &amp; Safety: I am comfortable administering oral medications as needed and am always prepared to follow your specific emergency protocols.
Capacity &amp; Availability: I prioritize quality of care by taking only a limited number of dogs at once, ensuring your pet gets the focused attention they deserve.
Training Reinforcement: While not a professional trainer, I am highly comfortable reinforcing your established house-training, socialization, and basic command routines.
Behavioral Support: I specialize in managing different energy levels by building trust through predictable routines and a patient, positive attitude.
Off-Leash Options: If your dog has great recall, I’m happy to visit off-leash areas for a more vigorous run.
Experience: I have years of practical experience, including a dedicated six-month stretch providing daily care for a friend's dog.
Communication: I prioritize peace of mind by sending regular photo updates throughout our time together.


For the safety and health of everyone involved, I only accept pets that are fully up-to-date on their vaccinations. This helps ensure a safe and healthy environment for all the animals in my care.



I have always lived with pets, and caring for animals has been a constant part of my life. Growing up surrounded by dogs taught me how important routine, patience, and affection are for their wellbeing. This lifelong experience is what motivated me to become a pet sitter.

I offer in-home pet care and dog walking services, making sure pets can stay comfortable in their own environment while their owners are away. During home visits, I follow each pet’s usual routine carefully, including feeding, fresh water, playtime, and companionship, so they feel safe and relaxed. I always take time to give pets attention and reassurance, especially those who may feel anxious when their owners are not home.

For dog walks, I adapt the pace and length of the walk to each dog’s age, energy level, and personality. Whether a dog enjoys calm walks or needs more active outings, I make sure they get the exercise and mental stimulation they need in a safe and controlled way.

I am attentive, patient, and respectful of each pet’s unique personality. I only care for vaccinated pets to ensure a safe environment. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were my own, providing reliable, loving, and responsible care.
