Pet care experience

The best care for your best friend

I am a compassionate and responsible pet sitter with hands-on experience in handling a variety of pet care services including walking, overnight pet care, pet taxi and medication administration. Actively perform grooming duties such as bathing and brushing. Competent and committed, ability to ensure that pets are given their food and water according to specified schedules. Ability to dispense and administer medication to assigned pets, along with a great ability to keep a constant check on their health. I have had dogs and cats for most of my adult life. My experience comes from them and pet sitting for family and friends. We have recently lost one of our beloved fur babies of 14 years and would love to welcome your pets into our family while you are away.

Barb was great with our dog Riley. She was very responsible, flexible and took good care of her.

We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Barb! She watched our dog for nearly 20 days and kept us completely at ease with regular photo updates and great communication. When we faced unexpected travel delays, Barb was incredibly understanding and flexible. She is reliable, professional, and attentive—we will absolutely book with her again!

So kind from start to finish! Our dog is older, and he came back clearly relaxed and wasn’t stressed which is so nice. I’d definitely book with her again!

Barb and her family were great! She provided photos and updates of my dog throughout the stay. They were able to take my dog to the vet for an unexpected visit and I felt very reassured that he was in good hands.
