About: I have over 15 years of experience pet sitting for cats and caring for dogs for friends, family, and extended networks. I grew up with two Dalmatians and a chocolate Labrador, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I also volunteered for 7 years at the Humane Society SPCA, where I worked hands-on with dogs, including training and behavior support. Through this experience, I’ve developed confidence handling a wide range of personalities—from high-energy dogs to more anxious or sensitive pets. I currently have a 9-year-old black cat named Peter, and I’m especially skilled with cats. I understand their behavior, respect their boundaries, and know how to build trust—even with shy or more reserved cats. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I’m happy to follow routines closely and ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Flexible schedule with availability weekdays and weekends for drop-ins and walks. I prioritize consistency, follow routines closely, and ensure reliable, attentive care for your pet. I create a calm, safe environment, follow all care instructions, respect boundaries, and provide attentive care. Experienced with shy or anxious cats and build trust patiently.

I respect their home. I treat their home as if it's my own. I respect their fur baby's space. I would never harm an animal, especially one that's part of the family.

Elizabeth is a cat whisperer! She has watched my 3 cats several times. She is reliable, incredibly caring, pays attention to detail, and she has learned to administer my blind cats liquid medication. Two of my cats are former ferals and they hide from everyone, and she has seen both of them and even pet my extremely shy boy Shadow. She is highly recommended & cat approved! 🐈😻🐈⬛

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
