Pet care experience

I have owned, cared for and trained pets most of my life. Neighbors, friends, and family have entrusted me to walk, feed, bathe and love their pets. I have experience caring for senior pets as well. Since I don't have pets of my own, I am able to give your senior pet the individualized attention he/she needs. I recently lost my 12 year old Tuxedo cat, Bandit. She was the love of my life, and I miss her dearly. I'm looking forward to showing your fur baby all the love I can while you're away. I will do whatever it takes to ease their anxiety, knowing their owner is away.

Ms.Barbara was very nice and attentive. She sent me pictures and updates multiple times a day of my baby, which I loved. I would definitely recommend her and use her again ?

Our dog seemed to be left in amazing hands, no difference in behavior. Barbara sent daily and multiple updates with pictures. She was available for meet up before hand and seemed to treat our dog as if he was her own. When we need a dog sitter again, she will be contacted again. Thank you Barbara.

A typical day

Your fur bay will play all day if they so desire, whether it be in my backyard, at the dog park, on a walking trail, or inside with my grandchildren who are very safe and responsible with pets. They have a beautiful and playful Great Dane at their home, who is so gentle with them. I have plenty of toys to stimulate your pets desire to play since he/she may be anxious being away from home.

Hello, thank you for considering me. I recently retired from a 30 year design career with Interiors by Decorating Den, so I am home all day to provide a safe , loving, and structured environment for your pet. I am very dependable, responsible and trustworthy. I have provided boarding for family and friends as well as clients over the years. My grandson visits some weekends and will love having another pet to play and cuddle with at night.
