“Tanya was absolutely amazing! We were away for a week, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was taking care of my three cats with as much love and attention as I do. One of my older babies, Bailey, struggles with constipation and usually won’t poop normally when I’m away due to stress. Sometimes we have to give her special medication to help her, and she can be fussy about taking it. Tanya handled the situation so well. I honestly don’t even know how to thank her enough. She gave her the necessary medication, monitored her closely to make sure she was pooping again, and even arrived earlier on some days just to ensure everything was okay with my kitties. I felt so relaxed knowing she was the one caring for them, and I was truly able to enjoy my vacation. She is incredible, and I will absolutely continue using her services going forward!”
About: **About Me – Animal Experience 🐶🐱** I am an animal lover who enjoys spending time with and caring for animals.

“Mary was so lovely! I appreciated her flexibility with our meet and greet, the pictures she sent, her consistent timing, and her updates. I hope to get her in the future when we travel!!”
About: My preferred name is Zara. Nice to digitally meet you here :) I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! The reason I don’t have reviews but so many pictures is because pet parents I encounter don’t wish to pay extra fees and during meet & greet choose a different route :) I’ve 20+ years of experience in foster care, reactive dog care, senior dogs/cats care. I lost my job in Aug 2025 and I’m pet boarding full time. I’ll be there for your fur baby 24/7. If you like my work, tips would be greatly appreciated since pet sitting is my main and only source of income right now, while I actively hunt for a full-time job in this economy :) What sets me apart from other sitters is my approach and knowledge - i constantly update myself by reading more into holistic care and positive training for pets. I adapt my style of care to your pet because I believe each pet has their unique personalities, space and likes/dislikes. I love to mentally stimulate my pets with a walk in the park near by or puzzle games at home. I play soothing music in the house with some calming scent. I give cuddles to a cuddly pet or space to a more reserved pet. I never take dogs to dog park. I never leave your dog off leash anytime. Your pet’s safety is my #1 priority. A regular day in my life as a pet enthusiast: E.g. if it is a dog: 7am: morning poo/pee break 30 min 8am: breakfast 10am: morning walk 60min 2pm: afternoon poo/pee break 30min 3pm: lunch (if small dog) 6pm: evening walk 60min 8pm: dinner 9pm: night poo/pee break 30 min I’m currently unemployed hence I am home full time and I have a small 1 year friendly chihuahua (trained puppy). So I have more time on my hand to go dog walking or board your pet. I have a variety or trails and parks nearby; I believe dogs need regular walks to mentally stimulate themselves with their super strong sense of smell. I love enrichment walks with dogs. My pet dog Chico would love to have a companion to go on a walk with. I have 6 feet and 20/50 feet leash at home. I also have a big sized crate in my house if needed. If you are boarding your pet cat at my place, I would encourage you to provide all the supplies because a change of diet would affect their gut.
