What do I enjoy most about caring for other people’s pets? Well, my husband says we are at capacity for animals so really, I am living vicariously through all your animals. Jokes aside, I absolutely love animals. I feel a special and unique bond with each one I meet. I am thrilled to be able to step in and help our clients feel confident and secure going away and not having to worry about their pets being back home. I know it can be stressful planning vacations, leaving for work trips, etc., and I love that we can step in and take one worry out of the equation. I strive to be there and take care of the furry family members in our care just like they were my own. I feel like I have the best job in the world – walking dogs, playing with cats, checking on guinea pigs- you name it, I have done it!

My experience with Red Dog Sitting started as a client looking for care for my pets. In 2020 I had the opportunity to join the Red Dog team and have fallen in love with caring for animals. My fondness for animals has been strong since my childhood. I was very fortunate to have grown up around many types of animals. I have learned the meaningful impact that they have on a family. Since my childhood, I have had a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your pet. In many ways, pets have become a significant part of the family. I enjoy helping the animals feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. Either for a few hours away at a job, errands, or days for travel. Seeing their faces and often wagging tails every day puts a smile on my face! I have quickly learned that many of the pets grasp that I am solely there for them. I am then able to share a special bond during the visits. One of the many reasons I enjoy pet-sitting is the opportunity to see each animal's personality, learning their funny quirks, along with sharing photos and stories with the families. They bring so much joy and happiness to my life!
