Life’s better with a fur bestie

Animal lover and bestie since before I could walk! My house growing up felt like a zoo with 10 cats, 3 dogs, 2 guinea pigs, and my older brother's snake. All those personalities shaped my love for every animal!

Safety, trust & environment

For clients, I follow their detailed instructions regarding feeding schedules, medication, and any specific needs or routines. If they’re in my home, I have a separate room where I let the newcomer relax for a few hours before slowly introducing them to my friendliest animals first.

Bernadette was so kind and thorough while with my puppy. She sent me updates of what they did and I got a cute little photo! She knows my puppy is having an issue with one of her legs right now so she took her on a small walk just to get some energy out still and of course for potty. She communicated well with me throughout the hour. She is also so flexible with availability! I would highly recommend booking her for your puppy or adult dog:)

I’ve seen my friend Bernadette work absolute magic with animals. She’s a total natural when it comes to caring for pets of all kinds. Whether it’s taking dogs on walks, playing with them, giving them belly rubs, or just curling up for cuddle time, she does it all with genuine love and patience. She has a great sense of each animal’s personality and always adjusts her approach to make them feel comfortable and happy. Treat time is always fun and structured with her, and she never misses when it comes to routines or special care instructions. The same goes for cats and all indoor pets she’s gentle, attentive, and always makes sure they feel safe and cared for. Bernadette has a calm energy that animals seem to really respond to, and it’s clear how much she enjoys spending time with them. Any pet in her care is not only safe, but also truly loved.

Bernadette has a genuine passion for animals and always goes the extra mile to ensure they feel comfortable and loved. She’s attentive to their needs and provides a safe and fun environment. Your pets will not only be well cared for but also have a great time with her! Her warm and friendly demeanor makes her a favorite among pets, and I’ve seen firsthand how happy and relaxed they are in her care. She is incredibly dedicated and always takes the time to understand each pet's unique personality and requirements. She engages them in play, ensures they get plenty of exercise, and maintains their routines. You can trust that your furry friends will receive the love and attention they deserve while in her hands!🐾

Bernadette is one of the most caring and genuine people I know. She has sat for me multiple times and each time has done such an amazing job. I always feel safe and comfortable leaving my animals with her. She’s kept my animals happy by playing with them and has made sure they are well taken care of. She loves my animals as their own each time she’s been with them and it’s so sweet. She is one of the most organized and dedicated people I’ve ever met as well and she will never let you down.
