I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I had both a dog and a cat, and I was responsible for taking care of them from daily walks and feeding to vet visits and everything in between. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Four years ago, I adopted my own dog, Piko, a senior stray from Greece, and he completely changed my life. Piko has several health issues and will never be a completely healthy dog, but he’s the sweetest soul and has taught me more than I could have imagined. He’s also highly reactive towards other dogs, so over the past four years my partner and I have been patiently learning, training, and working with him every single day. Because of that, I understand that every dog is different and deserves care that’s adapted to their personality and needs. I genuinely love dogs and cats, and I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust. Whether your dog is young, senior, energetic, shy, or needs a little extra patience, or your cat simply needs a calm and caring companion while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after. I offer dog walking, home visits, overnight pet sitting, and cat sitting. For walks, I always go individually without bringing my own dog, so your dog gets my full attention. If I’m staying in your home, I’ll do everything I can to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’m also a painter, which means I have a flexible schedule and can often adapt my availability to what works best for you and your pet. My goal is simple: to care for every animal with the same patience, kindness, and attention I give my own.
