10+ Yrs Experience Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Barbie and I offer full-time pet and house sitting for you and your furry friends. With 8+ years experience in veterinary medicine, I am able to care for a wide range of pets; energetic puppies to geriatrics whom may require that extra attention. Whether it be a morning run or administering medications, I ensure they stick to their normal routine while you are away. As a pet owner myself, I understand the anxiety of knowing your pet is in safe hands and I am here to give you that peace of mind. I will look after your pet as if they were my own, with as many belly rubs their little hearts desire! I excitingly, look forward to meeting you soon!

Barbara is the epitome of a 5 star pet sitter and dog walker, hands down! When I have to go out of town or gone for the day for an extended period of time, I always feel bad because I'm really the only thing my dog has. My dog's whole existence depends on me lol. I had previously used 4 different dog sitters on different occasions. Each experience I would say was average...what's to be expected. Finally I found Barbara and what sets her apart is her love and competence, in taking care of my dog! I will never use another dog sitter again. I feel much more comfortable when I have to go out of town, and that peace of mind knowing my daughter (2 year old pitbull lol) is taken care of, is priceless. Barbara is great at respecting the instructions I leave for Luna, sending photos, and giving updates. She treats my dog as her own, and it's also comforting to know Barbara has 10 years experience working in veterinarian offices and animal emergency hospitals as a professional vet technician. Now when Luna goes to stay with Barbara, it's like a field trip for her, rather than being sad watching me pack like she used to. I'm starting to think my dog likes Barbara more than me haha!

Barbara is experienced, professional and yet gentle and caring. She has worked in the veterinary field and loves doggies! Your pet will enjoy her company as well. If you love your doggie and need a sitter, know she is the person to hire. It's a win-win!

Barbie is a kind and sweet person. She has taken care of both of my cats in the past. She would send my wife and me photos throughout the day. We felt save knowing that our cats were in great hands. She is such an awesome person. Highly recommend her.

Barbie has stayed at our house and sat my brood on multiple occasions. She’s trustworthy and offers loving care. I can not speak highly enough. My dogs are like our 4 legged kids and I just couldn’t leave them at a kennel. Barbie is the best. She has vet experience and can give the meds that my pups are on.
