Here to give 🦮🐈 lots of ❤️🐾!

Pet care experience

I am an animal lover who can not wait to meet you and your dog(s) and/or cat(s). I am ready to give your furry family members lots of attention and affection and go for tons of walks! We can walk around the neighborhood or go to a local dog park. I am a proud cat mom to two senior kitties, one DSH and one Persian. I have been pet sitting for 18 years for dogs of all sizes and breeds from 4lb chihuahuas to 100lb Labrador retrievers as well as cats of all ages. I am comfortable with any age from puppy to senior dogs and have experience administering oral medications to dogs and cats. I have past experience volunteering weekly as a dog walker for an animal shelter and it gave me a ton of exposure to many different breeds and temperaments of dogs. Let me know if you have any questions!

I was so nervous to leave my boys Sheldon & Freddie with a sitter while we were out of town but I’m so glad we found Barbara! She’s so responsible, communicative, kind, and our dogs love her! She sent the best photos everyday to keep us up to date with what was happening at home. Definitely recommend!

Barbara was absolutely super! She took care of my pets and house as though they were her own. Could not have asked for a better caregiver. Thank you, Barbara :-)

Barbara was wonderful in caring for our energetic dog Ruby while we were away for a long weekend. She was extremely communicative, sending texts and photos updates of their play time in the yard and neighborhood walks. She was also extremely vigilant in looking after our home during her stay. We felt such peace of mind with Barbara’s presence in our jobs and care for our dog and we would definitely book her again in the future!

If your dog has any medications or conditions just let me know. I want to make the transitions as smooth as possible for your furry family member, so the more information I know the better!
