About: I've had pets in the home since age 1, and have been helping to take care of them since I could walk. I've always loved animals, and began volunteering at animal shelters, walking, bathing, and feeding shelter dogs beginning at age 5. I have worked in the field of veterinary medicine since 2023, and have a working knowledge of many medical and behavioral issues. I am comfortable caring for cats and dogs of any size, administering medications, walking reactive dogs, and more. I am also trained in canine CPR and first aid, in case of emergencies. I'm currently working from home, with the ability to bring my work on the road, so I have the flexibility to accommodate the needs of each individual fur family! I currently provide services in the client's home only. I will ask for a rundown of of your pet's daily feeding/walking/play schedule, and do my best to make your fur baby feel at ease while under my care with lots of playtime, cuddles and love; and maintaining their usual routine while you're away!

Mitzi W.
“In a world where finding reliable pet care can often feel like searching for a needle in a haystack, we were fortunate to discover Mitzi. As we prepared for a long-awaited vacation, our minds were filled with excitement, but there was also a lingering concern about leaving our four furry companions behind. Who would care for them? Fortunately, our worries were quickly alleviated when we entrusted our dogs and home to Mitzi. From the moment Mitzi stepped through our front door, it was clear that she was more than just a pet sitter; she was a guardian of our beloved fur babies. Her warm demeanor and genuine affection for animals shone through, instantly putting both us and our dogs at ease. It was as if our dogs sensed her kind energy, welcoming her with wagging tails and eager barks. This was the first indication that we had made the right choice. Throughout our vacation, we received regular updates from Mitzi, each message brimming with details about our dogs’ activities and antics. She shared stories of playtime in the backyard, cozy snuggles on the couch, and even the occasional mischief that our dogs managed to get into. Her diligence in keeping us informed not only reassured us but also highlighted her commitment to ensuring that our pets felt loved and secure in our absence. Upon our return, the undeniable bond that had formed between Mitzi and our dogs was evident. They greeted her with unreserved enthusiasm, their joyful barks and playful leaps demonstrating their affection for her. It was heartwarming to witness how our dogs had embraced Mitzi, a true testament to her nurturing spirit and ability to connect with animals. The way they interacted with her spoke volumes; it was clear that they felt safe and cherished in her care. Mitzi’s reliability and dedication extended beyond simply feeding and walking our dogs. She took the time to engage with them, tailoring her approach to meet each dog's unique personality and needs. Whether it was playing fetch with our exuberant Labrador or offering gentle strokes to our shy rescue pup, she showed an admirable understanding of their individual temperaments. This personalized care not only reinforced their trust in her but also ensured that their emotional and physical well-being was prioritized. it is evident that Mitzi is a gem in the realm of pet care. Her diligence, reliability, and heartfelt”

“Elizabeth has been over to watch our 2 dogs many times and they absolutely love her, including our grouchy Beagle who doesn’t get alone with most people. She has shown great compassion for all animals that I’ve seen her with and has a dog of her own that she treats like family.
