My name is Beth and I'm the proud Person (read: mama) to two of the most wonderful mutts in the world, Rolo and Kiffy. My "kid'ders" and my fiance are the most important parts of my world; I'd love to have you and your dog (or cat, or rabbit, or bird, or iguana, or...you get the idea) be part of it, too. I got serious about caring for my dogs around 14 years old (I've had dogs since I was 7 or 8, but we all know it's more the parents than the kids taking care of the pets at that stage). I became a pet sitter for 7 years (2003 - 2010) for a number of professional services before deciding to "take the road less traveled" and starting my own independent gig. I've had many great experiences over the years and still have a few clients that have been with me since the beginning. I'd like to take a minute to talk about not so much myself, but the service I provide and how important it is. It's quite logical to imagine that your dog (or cat, or rabbit, et cetera), when they can't be with you, is happiest in their own home. Put yourself in your pet's place: would you want to be left at a foreign domain by a loved one, scared, uneasy, and worried you've been abandoned? I know I wouldn't. That's why it's easiest on your dog to have someone (like me!) come to stay with them. It's on their turf and, essentially, their terms, making them more tolerable of your absence. From one pet lover to another, no matter who you choose to stay with your "kid'der," thank you for considering this care option.
