Loving Your Pets Like My Own

Pet care experience

I've taken care of pups and kitties throughout my life so being a pet sitter is second nature and a dream come true! I have experience with senior pets, administering medications, fostering and rescuing, and training in pet first aid and CPR. As a volunteer dog walker at the Oregon Dog Rescue, I walked and provided social interaction for dogs with a variety of personalities and backgrounds. At Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, I fed, refreshed bedding and litter, and provided social interaction for cats in the Cat House, as a part of a week-long volunteer trip. As a pet sitter, I’ve cared for dogs and kitties with a variety of experiences, comfort levels, and challenges. There's nothing more rewarding than that moment when the shy pet you’re caring for decides to trust you! My goal is to provide the same routine and care your pet experiences when you’re home so that they feel happy and secure. I provide exercise as well as fun games and puzzles to stimulate them physically, mentally, and emotionally. I’ll keep you updated by sending you a detailed message with photos at the end of every stay.
