Raining Cats & Dogs

Pet care experience

I grew up with cats, later with dogs. When I married I had both dogs and cats at home. My husband and I attended dog obedience classes starting in the early 90s. We had a series of Rottweilers, then a Belgian Malinois, and now a Pitt Bull. I enjoy training canines and playing with them. I also very much enjoy interacting with my two cats. One of the joys of my life is raising felines alongside canines. First, during the week, when school is in session, I'm available 5pm to 7pm Mon-Fri. And when school is out, I can watch pets 8am to 7pm Mon-Fri. Second, on Saturdays I can do 8am to 2pm and then 5pm to 7pm. Finally, Sundays I can pet-sit from 1pm to 7pm. I keep two indoor cats in my apartment. They get fresh air regularly in the carrier on the balcony. They get wet food in the morning and dry food on demand, along with plenty of water. They visit the vet annually.

Barbara is wonderful. This is our second time having her with our little Wraith. My kitty loves her and she provides daily fun! Absolutely would recommend and will be booking again. Thank you, Barbara!

Barbara did a great job taking care of Earl Grey! Earl Grey was not very cooperative and stayed in hiding when Barbara came to visit, but she made sure he was fed and had everything he needed. Earl Grey missed out on making a fine new friend. However, he was in good form when we returned from our travels and I will definitely use Barbara again if she is available when we travel again.

I'll care for your pet in your home according to your instructions, and according to my experience. I'm careful and conscientious. I'll stay in touch.

Information Barbara C. would like to know about your pet

Any people- or dog-socialization issues, physical limitations, food preferences, please inform me, and I'll take proper care of your companion pet. One problem in particular, fear biting, which is biting without any warning whatsoever, needs special attention. A muzzle would help when walking such a dog, for the sake of the walker and any stranger coming up to the dog.

A typical day

I enjoy interacting with canines, walking and training them, and playing with them outdoors. Whatever special instructions owners leave me, I'll abide by. They will find a happy dog that has been exercised and cared for when they get back.
