“Autumn was great. She took care of our cats and chickens at the last minute. She was very informative and our fur babies liked her. Would definitely recommend.”
“Lizz has been such a big help for our anxious 15-year-old cat. We so appreciate her skill and compassion when giving him his injections for arthritis, and her care and kindness have so helped our peace of mind knowing that he’s getting the care he needs.”
“Emily took care of our two cats while we were gone for two weeks and we came home to very well cared for and happy babies!! Her visits were at consistent times every day, she sent great pictures and updates, and was quick to respond to our messages. She also kept our plants alive while we were gone :) We will happily book with Emily again for future trips!”
“Azure was wonderful with our three cats! She was timely and excellent with communication. It was obvious that she was passionate about taking care of them. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again!”
“Camille was very sweet and caring to my cat! She really cared about the specific routine we have and sticking to the instructions and tips I left. She left detailed notes through the app and lots of adorable pictures. It was good to know my cat was comfortable with her and enjoyed having someone there to care for her while I was gone.”
“This was my second time having Marisa watch my kitty and I just so appreciate her! She’s extremely responsive and professional and goes above and beyond with her care, notes, and photos. I can really trust that my cat is in great hands and love that she is opening up more and more to Marisa :)”
“Chandra is awesome. She has made friends with my very shy cat and I feel confident I can leave him at home when we travel because she takes such good care of him. Boarding is extremely stressful for him so it's nice to have an alternative. Thanks again, Chandra ☺️”
“Sierra is a great cat sitter, would definitely recommend! She did drop in visits for our two cats and did a great job with them. We will definitely rebook with Sierra for next time we travel.”
“Jase took great care of our 2 kittens while we were away for a long weekend trip. He fed them, played with them, and cared for them like they were his own. This helped me relax during my vacation, knowing that they were in great hands.”
“It was wonderful working with you and I hope to work with you again in the future! I appreciated your flexibility and little notes you left after your visits! The photos you sent eased my worries about leaving my boy home! Thank you so much!”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was a kid. My partner and I have 2 young, high energy dogs as well as 3 cats. Gus is a 2 year old Golden Retriever and Pennie is a 3.5 year old English Shepherd. Cats are ages 10, 6, and 5. I am not a dog trainer, but I have attended training classes at Tails-a-waggin as an owner with my 2 dogs and I am comfortable using positive reinforcement techniques with dogs. I work remotely out of Ferndale. I have the ability to work from your home or I can stop by on my breaks (timing can be flexible). I have an hour lunch break so plenty of time for a walk or potty break if you live near by. I will be very diligent about the safety of your pets. I have a lot of experience making sure pets are contained in their home or yard. I do not allow on leash greetings with other pets or people when on a walk for your pets safety. I have reliable transportation just in case a pet may need to be transported to the vet.
“Mika came over and spent an hour with the dogs in the middle of the day and it was such a big help! She plays with them, took them on a walk and I feel completely comfortable with them in her care.”
“Maddy is great with our kitties. Even our usually shy boy went right to her when she arrived! Maddy is super conscientious and we look forward to her watching our kitties again!”
