“Mariah did an amazing job taking care of my cat while I was away! She communicated clearly, sent regular updates, and really understood how to approach my shy cat. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Tanée was amazing! I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a more than reasonably priced house/pup sitter. Not only did she look after my fur baby with the love and care she’d give her own animals, she also looked after my home and even did some cleaning! I’m so impressed with her work ethic and the amount of effort and energy she put into keeping me updated on my puppy’s wellbeing. She really was such a blessing to find! I’m definitely booking again with her. She clearly loves doing what she does. Thank you Tanée!!”

About: Hi! I'm Michelle. I have over 29 years of experience in the field of veterinarian medicine, training and behavior modification. We offer overnight boarding as well as daycare for cats, dogs, and other pets. To prevent the spread of illness, we require that all pups be up to date on Rabies, Bordetella (kennel cough) and DHPP (parvo). In addition, cats should be current on Rabies and FeLv. Please send vaccine records to records@rufflanding (.com) We also ask that you provide your pets regular food, as sudden diet changes can upset their tummy. We have everything else they could possibly need! Our client service hours are: M-F 8-10AM & 3-6PM Sat & Sun 8-10AM We offer: Socialization, walks, friendly playmates, trips to the dog park if permitted, medication administration, constant potty breaks, photos and baths (upon request), and tons of affection! It's the next best thing to being home! Petcare is my full time business. I work from home sitting and boarding as well as hosting foster pets occasionally. Aside from dropping in on established pets or taking them on walks, I am home full time. We have a securely fenced yard and pets are constantly supervised when outside. We take potty breaks every 2 hours. We schedule socialization, enrichment and playtime activities to keep them busy and entertained.
