Easy dog or cat sitting.

Pet care experience

I am a dog and cat lover. Fine company and sensitive to any pet’s special needs. I am an educated single woman . I am home a lot. I like to sing to dogs too and read them books. I have had two dogs and three cats as pets in my life, but cared for many more than this. I am very sensitive to a pet owner's needs to feel comfortable with the person they choose to care for their family members. Pets are great friends too. Walk both morning and evening. Meet and greets are great ways to see if we can help your dog or cat have a good stay.

Barbara took great care of Lola for us! I had a last minute trip into town to visit a sick friend. July 4th weekend so finding any of my usual dog sitters was not an option. Used Rover for the first time and Barbara did a great job with Lola. Received pictures and had great communication through the sitting. I absolutely would use Barbara again!

Barbara took great care my cat, Vinny. She made it work, keeping Vinny at her home even though she had a pet cat. Vinny took to Barbara and was even snuggling with her by the end of the weekend! Barbara was prompt for all meetings and most helpful. I got several pictures of Vinny during his stay. I will use her again.

Barbara was fantastic watching my dog. She was friendly, responsive and responsible. She provided pictures and updates along the way. Waffles was happy when I arrived to pick him up and I’d happily request Barbara board him again.
