Hi, I'm Rumj! As a pre-veterinary and biomedical sciences student, animal care isn't just a job for me -it's my passion and career path. I provide reliable pet sitting, dog walking, and boarding right from my all-animal-friendly home, ensuring your furry family members receive the highest level of care, structure, and affection while you're away. I also will be available for all pet transportation needs starting August 20, 2026. I team up with my partner, Isabella, for all pet care services. Working as a duo means your pet gets double the love, constant supervision, and a built-in safety system. Whether we are hosting boarding guests at my place or out on a walk, having two sets of eyes and hands ensures a highly secure, controlled, and stress-free environment for your pet. I have extensive experience handling different sizes, temperaments, and care routines. I can't wait to meet your pup, kitty, or any other exotic animal, and treat them like one of my own!
Rumi took very good care of my pet family while I was away for the weekend. I have a rescue dog, cat and two parakeets. I'm not able to board my dog in a kennel environment at all. (She grew up as a breeder in a puppy mill). I was nervous about leaving her at home because she can become destructive when her anxiety kicks in. Rumi kept me updated on visits to the house. She followed directions I had left for her. The pets were happy. I was very pleased with Rumi's services.
