About: I grew up with cats and dogs. I just love their unique personalities and I am passionate about their behavior and why they do the things they do.

About: Caring for animals has been a lifelong passion of mine. Growing up, my family and I regularly took in sick, injured, or abandoned animals, nursing them back to health and giving them the love they needed to thrive. This early experience taught me not only the basics of pet care, but also the patience, compassion, and attentiveness it takes to truly understand an animal’s needs. While I love all creatures, I have a special connection with cats and dogs, and nothing brings me more joy than making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, administering medication, or just giving them some extra love, I take pride in treating every animal as if they were my own. I am a business owner who works remote - which makes fitting pet care into my schedule fairly easy. So long as I have a day or so for notice and am not currently booked with anyone else, I can typically make myself available. I can easily provide my services in your home in order to ensure the comfort of your pets. I’m happy to take them outside to play, go for walks, feed them, snuggle them, and ensure litter boxes and yards are cleaned up during my visit.

“Jason has only been visiting Margo for a couple of weeks but she looks forward to seeing him. He's really good with her and it's comforting to know that he has medical experience.”

About: I have taken care of my own two dogs for 10 years now. I also cat sit and care for friends and family; including giving medications and special dietary needs.
