Pet care experience
NEW! Spring and Summer calendar is updated! I will not be available Thurs, Fri May 23,24. However, Memorial Day weekend on Sat, Sun, and Monday, (May 25,26,27) is open with a few more spots for drop ins and dog walks. Mother's Day and Father's Day weekend is open but limited as well. Week of July 4th is open with limited availability. I will not be available week of July 13-21. If the calendar says unavailable, please contact me anyway just in case it isn't synched. Also I will accept new families depending on distance, so always send a request. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I have taken care of my own personal dogs and cats for over 30 years. As a pet owner my entire life, I enjoy spending time with fur babies and have taken care of any needs. I have personal experience with caring for special needs pets, older pets, and giving medication as needed. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your fur babies happy! I love to share photos of your fur babies at the visits for the utmost assurance that they are happy and well cared for. Also, I can feed any small pets like guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, turtles, bearded dragons. (no snakes)
Reviews
Barb was such a help with watching the dogs!! She would take the time to play with them and give them attention during her visit. We loved getting photos after each visit:).
Barb is the best! Highly recommend her. She takes such good care of my cats when I’m away.
Barb was an absolutely wonderful caregiver for our 3 cats while we went on a trip. The regular updates and photos gave us such peace of mind to know they were in such loving care. We will definitely use her again.
Barb is the best!! We are very grateful for all her help and our puppies adore her as do we!

Safety, trust & environment
First I require a complimentary MEET n GREET to see if I am a good fit and your pet and myself will be comfortable and safe. Please provide any important info about your pet including allergies, specific behaviors, breed information, feeding schedule, potty schedule, medications, etc. For neighborhood dog walks I would like to see the routine with a quick walk with you and your pet at the meet n greet. Safety and trust is very important :-)
Information Barb F. would like to know about your pet
It is important for a pet sitter to be informed of any special needs or behaviors beforehand. This is a great opportunity to ask questions and to let me know if there are any specific behaviors to be aware of (separation anxiety, biting, allergies, social skills with people and other pets, feeding, medication, and bathroom schedule). Let me know of any breed specific information. Safety, trust, and environment is very important to me. At the meet n greet we will determine if the pet will be comfortable and the sitter will be safe. A complimentary Meet n Greet is highly recommended so we can get acquainted with the pets and learn the routines.
A typical day
We will walk or run and play outside around the neighborhood or in a fenced in back yard. Games with dog toys are so much fun with a lot of interaction and praise.
