Any medications? Allergies?
Dog Sitting & Drop-In Services — Your Pup’s Home Away From Home (Or Right at Home!) Your dog deserves more than just a place to wait. Your companion deserves care, attention, and a sitter who genuinely loves spending time with them. Whether you’re heading out for the day or need someone to hold things down while you’re away for an extended period, I offer flexible, attentive dog sitting services designed to keep your furry family member comfortable, happy, and well-loved in their own environment. What I Offer I provide both drop-in visits and in-home sitting, meaning I come to your space so your dog never has to leave the comfort of the home they know and love. Familiar surroundings make a huge difference for dogs — especially those who experience anxiety in new environments or who simply thrive on routine. Being in their own home means they have access to their favorite spots, their own toys, their own smells, and everything that makes them feel safe and secure. Overnight Stays When I’m booked for an overnight sitting, your dog will receive a minimum of four walks or potty breaks throughout the day and evening, ensuring they stay on a consistent schedule and get plenty of opportunities to stretch their legs, sniff around, and take care of business. I understand how important routine is for dogs, and I make it a priority to maintain the schedule that works best for them. If I have a prior commitment during the day, please know that I keep any time away to a maximum of two to four hours, and I always return promptly. Your dog will never be left alone for extended periods without a plan in place, and I’ll always communicate with you in advance if I anticipate any gap in my availability so there are absolutely no surprises. Drop-In Visits & Day Sitting For day sitting arrangements, I provide a minimum of three walks or potty breaks to make sure your pup stays comfortable and stimulated throughout the visit. Beyond just the basics, I’m there to offer companionship — playtime, belly rubs, and simply hanging out so your dog doesn’t feel lonely or bored while you’re away. Dogs are social creatures, and having someone present and engaged with them makes a world of difference in their mood and energy. Communication You Can Count On I know how much pet owners love updates, so I make it a point to send regular check-ins, photos, and messages throughout my time with your dog. You’ll always know how your pup is doing, what we’ve been up to, and that they’re in good hands. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease while you’re away — not spending your day worrying about whether your dog is okay.
See photos, care updates, and activity as your sitter shares them. Follow walks live with GPS and see when visits start and finish.
This sitter has no pets of their own, so your pet won’t have to share food, toys, or attention with the sitter’s animals.
