About: I’ve had pets my entire life - first cat at 6, many many cats after that. I helped my parents with their 8 dogs (rescues + bonus dogs are always fun!), my aunt with her 7, and at 20 finally decided on a dog of my own! My roommate and I now have 6 pets between the two of us, so I’m more then experienced with them. I’ve always been the one who wants to take them on walks, give them baths, teach them fun tricks, or even just enjoy cuddle time in front of the tv. I usually have availability! If it’s marked as unavailable on my calendar you’re welcome to message me to arrange something on those days. I’m pretty flexible when it comes to pet care. I’m more then willing to comply with anything you need, pet wise! Kennel training if you prefer it, walking them on a harness if they’re not leash trained, supervision with toys and treats. If they’re not particularly people friendly I will happily sit on the floor and let them get used to me too. Safety is very important to me! And I’ll happily take all the time I can to send pet pictures and updates; that’s my favorite part.

About: I've been taking care of other people's pets from a very young age. I started at 10 and I've loved every minute of it since the beginning. I'll love your pet just as much as you do (maybe even a little more!) while they're in my care. They will enjoy frequent potty breaks, nice walks, treats, unconditional love, and play time with me. I'm more than willing to administer simple medications, such as pills, eye drops, and liquids. Drop-In and House Sitting pets will have their bowls washed clean every day and will be fed accordingly, with fresh water as well. Your pets mean a lot to you, and I want them to receive the same affection and care that you provide to them! 🐾 I’m a stay at home mom and entrepreneur so I’m always looking for work to do that can fit in my schedule! I have six cats and one dog at home that I’m responsible for.

About: 🐾 Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! I grew up surrounded by horses, cattle, and chickens—and even lived on a fox farm. One of my most unique companions was Barbara, my pet fox, who won “Most Unusual Pet” at our state fair several years in a row! Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide range of pets including dogs, cats (yes, even the hairless kind!), guinea pigs, fish, toads, and a couple of hermit crabs. I’m experienced in senior pet care and understand the importance of gentle handling and specialized attention, including administering medications both orally and via injection. I’m also well-versed in puppy care and potty training, and I’ll always follow your lead to maintain consistency with your pup’s routine. I have a special place in my heart for animals in need—many of my own pets have been rescues or strays. One unforgettable experience was taking in a pregnant stray cat who gave birth to eight kittens! It was chaotic, heartwarming, and absolutely worth it. I found loving homes for all the kittens, and the mama cat is still with me today. 🌿 For all overnight house-sitting stays, my rate includes a variety of helpful extras to keep your home running smoothly.

If I'm going to take a pay cut, it’s going to be for something that brings me joy—and helping pet parents is exactly that. I'm excited to start building lasting relationships with clients and their furry companions! 🐾 Every pet is unique, and I tailor each drop-in visit to meet their individual needs. At a minimum, I ensure fresh water and food are provided, and I sanitize bowls daily to keep things clean and safe. I also will poop scoop (weather permitting) and check litter boxes. When it comes to exercise and play, I follow your pet’s favorite routine—whether that’s chasing a stream from the water hose, fetching a ball, soaking up belly rubs, or even going for a joyride. I’m happy to provide visit notes, photos, or any updates you’d like.
