About: I grew up taking care of cats, and my current cat, Sookie, is 18 years old! My love for dogs runs just as deep. I have been dog sitting for over 15 years and recently joined my local animal shelter as a canine volunteer, where I am also currently fostering. I have a special place in my heart for senior pets. Caring for Sookie into her golden years has given me firsthand experience with the patience, attentiveness, and extra love that older animals need. Senior pet owners can feel confident their companions will be treated with the gentleness and respect they deserve. I am experienced administering cat medications including inhalers, injections, pills, and liquids via syringe, and have experience giving dogs pill medications as well. Your pets are in capable, caring hands. I am currently working remote part-time so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it's a one-off snuggle while you're away or a regular walking buddy to ensure your bestie is getting their steps in, I'm happy to discuss your pets' needs and availability. In my experience, pets are most comfortable in their own space so I am happy to care for them in their home. I follow the owner's routines, gladly provide updates with photos, and will treat your home with the same care I would my own. My home is calm and pet-friendly. I have a senior cat who has full reign of the second floor upstairs. Blocked by a gate, I can host pets downstairs with limited or full reign of the first floor. NOTE: At this time, I am fostering a shelter dog in our downstairs first floor space and will not be able to host your furry friends in my home overnight.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
