Caring for ur family is my pleasure

Pet care experience

I've always loved and wanted to work with animals, in fact I've pet (and house) sat on and off since I was a kid as my very first job. Plus I've always had pets of my own, or my family's, to take care of as well. My duties have included a number of tasks ranging from picking up mail, watering plants, feeding, watering, to administering medication (oral and intravenous)--as well as giving attention and affection of course! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. (In fact my own dog is also my multipurpose service dog.) In addition I have experience caring for cats (an assortment of breeds and ages), geese, chickens, snakes, rodents, fish, bats, squirrels, opossums, and foxes. Any exotic animals that need care are welcome also--as I used to be a wildlife rehabilitator, am a volunteer at WalkingWildRescue .org (a fox rescue & wolf-dog sanctuary), and HosPets .org *Note: I no longer take feline clients who need medication due to multiple negative experiences. Cats generally need someone they trust to administer meds, & do not take kindly to strangers (meeting once is not enough).* I charge what I do because: 1. I have to work around Rover's cut. 2. I'm willing to go the extra mile to make sure you don't need to worry about your family while you're gone! This is my only job & I love it, so I'm very dedicated & do take it seriously.

Storm definitely deserves a five star review. She was always either early or on time to take care of our dog. She went above and beyond what we asked her to do. I have had some health problems, and she was so kind to offer to help me with whatever I might need as well. Since my husband was gone, she heated up my dinner for me and brought it back to me. She is clearly very experienced with dogs too. Storm has a way of calmly and lovingly letting the dog know what they will be doing, like going outside for potty or play time, or getting dinner. Our puppy Pepper was immediately comfortable around her and welcomed her into our home. The next time we need a pet sitter, we will be calling Storm first to see if she is available!

Charlie is a wonderful person and wonderful pet sitter! They took such good care of our senior cat and kept us up to date with lots of photos :) I would book them again in a heartbeat!

Charlie took SUCH good care of my boys! I'm very, very particular about who takes care of my cats, and Charlie followed everything I asked and completely followed their normal routines. I felt such relief on my trip knowing they were being taken good care of. I also received so many pictures and updates with each visit. I was so happy with the care Charlie provided and will definitely be rebooking when we need them taken care of again!

A.P. took such good care of my senior cat Rocky. I'm always nervous leaving him alone, but they made me feel comfortable with timely updates. I will definitely have them take care of Rocky in the future!

Safety, trust & environment

While I am not currently able to host, I will treat your home with respect! In addition; Leon, who is my professionally trained service dog, is very friendly so can help provide some socialization for your pup if desired. *Important Note for Housesitting/Dog-Walk Clients*: Due to my disability I am unable to stay overnight or go on walks without my service dog--so in order for me to be the right provider for you, your pet must be dog friendly while at home/on walks. However if you don't need overnight & are looking for an extended daytime stay, it isn't necessary that my service dog accompany me & I am very open!

Information Storm S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know beforehand if your pet has any special needs and/or behavioral issues so that I can accommodate for them. I do have a service dog, however he only needs to accompany me if I am dog walking or staying overnight (due to my disability). I am able to provide drop-ins without him, no problem!

A typical day

My dog Leon love to play ball, so I can bring a chuck-it & tennis balls if needed! I also have a variety of brain games I can bring for rainy days.
