Pet care experience
Hi my name is Judy! I’ve had experience with animals from an early age because I grew up in a family with many pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters etc. I've had my own pets (cats) and I’ve had the privilege to take care of my friends pets as well. I regularly house sat for a friend with five cats and several chickens. I had so much fun taking care of her fur babies. We would cuddle and play and I’d take photos of their goofy antics and send them to her. I've also spent time watching friends dogs, both large and small. We’d go on hikes, as well as to the beach, and to the dog park. Every animal is a delight and I care for each one as if they were my own. I especially love taking nice photos of your pet for you.
Reviews
Judy is our go-to for watching our dog at our house while we're away. Another wonderful experience with Judy. She keeps me updated, sends pictures of my pup, and is always kind and thoughtful. Our dog, June, loves Judy and is always sad when she leaves! You're the best Judy!
Super appreciative of Judith’s patience for our slow old gal, keeping us informed of how the walk went with pics and putting up with Roxy’s walking quirks! Will definitely reach out to her in the future for walking and petsitting needs.
Judith was super communicative and very sweet to my boys while I was away!
JUDY THE CAT WHISPURRRRRRR ... Seriously I feel so lucky to have found Judy! We have a very shy rescue bengal cat, named Lola. In the past Lola has not done when when we go away. She would hide from the friend or neighbor who was feeding her and therefore would not have any human interaction the whole time which is so sad! So when we booked our first vacation in many years, I knew I needed to find the perfect sitter. After looking at available folks in my area, I landed on Judy bc of other reviews saying she was great with their shy cats. In the months leading up to our vacation, I hired her for drop in visits where we co-played with Lola so they could get acquainted before our trip. This tactic paid off! She got to know Lola's behavior and figured out how to mitigate the hiding upon arrival and get her to play even! Such a relief for me to enjoy my vacation and not worry about my sweet baby Lola once. She even brought in our mail/packages and cleaned up hairballs/vomit when needed (the joys of having a cat!) Also, i should mention, that during our co-play visits I got to know Judy for more that just a cat sitter, and she's a really rad and thoughtful person! Also, I want to mention that since coming home from vacation, our shy cat actually has a better temperament around other people! Like the work we did getting her comfortable with Judy paid off in more than one way which is really neat. <3

Safety, trust & environment
Your pets safety is very important to me. I will follow any instructions you ask of me and always prioritize their trust and safety. I understand meeting and trusting new person is a big deal to an animal and the best results take time and patience.
Information Judith L. would like to know about your pet
Are they friendly? Do they get along with other animals? Do certain things make them nervous? Do they have any special needs such as medications they need with their food? How can I show my affection and win their trust?
A typical day
A causal walk through the neighborhood and visiting local dog parks as well as whatever activity the owner would prefer me to include. Discovering your pets favorite toy and playing with them. Cuddling on the couch, watching tv together while giving belly rubs.
