“Becca is very sweet , I have a shy separation anxiety girl named Lola and Becca works her butt off to make sure she feels better while I'm at work”
About: I have over 7 years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—from small breed seniors to high-energy breeds. Jinger (My own pup) is a 6-year-old Female Malinois-Lab mix, so I’m especially familiar with energetic dogs who need structure, attention, and enrichment to thrive. Over the years, I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, rescues, and dogs with unique needs—including leash reactivity, anxiety, and medical routines. The wonderful folks at Southside pet shop had taught me Animal Husbandry by the book (literally). During my time there I had taken care of a wide variety of pets in a professional setting. I comfortable caring cats, and exotic pets too- I am more than at home in a multi-pet household. I ALWAYS approach every pet with patience and empathy. I understand that every animal is different, so I change my care-style (never quality!) to match their needs—whether that’s a long walk, playtime, cuddles or medical needs. If you need drop-in visits, house sitting, or just someone to give your dog an afternoon potty break, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, understood, and loved. You can expect daily updates and plenty of photos, Rest assured! Pet sitting is my full-time profession and passion, alongside my work as a freelance artist. I have professional experience in animal husbandry; I’m able to provide attentive, reliable care. I enjoy doing both traditional and digital art; my favorite are pet portraits! If there is downtime while I am petsitting, I’m usually doing art! In both my own home and when caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owners instructions, because I understand this routine is in place to keep them comfortable, and healthy. This includes using toys, treats and games to make their day rewarding and fun. Maintaining a clean environment is a top priority; food and water bowls are washed regularly and I always make sure each pet is fed according to their specified guidelines.
About: Some Senior Care Magic hands with dogs Feeding and Nutrition I have some experience with giving medications, but please tell me what works best for your pet. I currently am working part time for the summer so I will be able to check with your pets late at night and early morning. The most they'll be alone will probably be 5 hours. Most of time they won't be alone for Sundays. In your home, I'll make sure to walk them outside and if you have a backyard we'll play outside. We'll also play in any surrounded parks.
“She was very flexible and even came to my house an extra time to check in on my cat when I was freaking out! I’ve used her multiple times now”
“Great help no issues at all”
About: I've been a foster and pet sitter for mostly greyhounds for the past 20 years. Before that I always had dogs of my own. I've gone through obedience classes and grooming, and am pretty good with most temperaments. I am very available and flexible, since I'm retired and work part time from home. Evenings, weekends, holidays, whatever works for you and your pet. I can come to your home and let your dog out, walk, sit, or feed. Safety is a big factor and I'll do my best!
“Brooklynn was lovely from start to finish! She kept us updated with photos and was very prompt and responsive with communication. We could tell she really takes the responsibility seriously and really loves animals :-) Definitely planning to rebook in the future!”
About: I grew up with both cats and a dog so I have experience caring for both! I also have cared for friend’s pets since high school so I have experience with pets that are not my own. Willing to work with both young and elderly animals of any kind! My current work schedule is on a week by week basis so I am available any time as long as it’s planned 3 days in advance. I will care for your pets the same way you do; send me any care instructions needed and I’ll make sure your fur babies are taken care of!
