Pet care experience

All pets are family to me!!!

I've cared for animals my entire life and truly love them like family. Growing up, I helped my neighbor with Operation Catnip, where we trapped, rescued, and rehabilitated feral cats and dogs. I assisted with feeding, bathing, walking, giving medication, changing litter—whatever the animals needed. Over time, I started my own small pet care business for friends and family, and I also volunteered at my hometown's local animal shelter. I've fostered animals over the years as well, so I'm experienced with pets that need extra patience and care. Whether you're looking for someone to care for a playful puppy, a shy rescue, or a senior pet who needs gentleness and routine—I treat every animal like they're my own. If you want someone who genuinely loves animals and has hands-on experience, I’m the sitter for you!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When I care for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep everything as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow your pet’s regular routine—feeding schedules, walk times, play, medication, and any special instructions. I'm experienced with administering medications, managing crate time, and keeping things clean and organized. For dogs, I offer safe, enjoyable walks based on their energy and comfort level. I’m also experienced with crate-trained dogs, senior pets who need a slower pace, and anxious pups who need extra patience and calm. For cats, I provide gentle, attentive care—cleaning litter, keeping feeding areas tidy, and respecting their space or snuggle needs depending on their personality. I'm also comfortable caring for multiple pets and making sure each one gets the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s a quick walk, a drop-in visit, or an overnight stay, your pets will be loved, safe, and treated like family every time.

She was amazing with Cletus! He was a happy pup on my return and she was great communicating with me. Thank you!

Alexa has always had a natural connection with animals. She’s loving, patient, and incredibly responsible. I’ve watched her care for pets like they’re her own children. Anyone would be lucky to have her care for their furry family member!

Schedule

Pet care is a big part of my everyday life, and I have a very flexible schedule to support it! I'm available on weekends, holidays, and evenings, which makes it easy to accommodate your pet’s routine—whether it's a late-night potty break, an early morning walk, or holiday coverage when you're out of town. I’m committed to making your pet feel safe, loved, and cared for no matter the time of day. You can count on me for dependable and attentive care whenever you need it!

To give your pet the best care possible, I like to know a few key things ahead of time—like their daily routine, energy level, any medical needs, triggers, favorite toys or calming tricks, and how they do around other animals. I’m experienced with shy, senior, and special-needs pets, so the more I know about what makes them feel safe and happy, the better I can care for them like family.
