Dedicated animal lover and advocate

Pet care experience

I have taken care of animals since I’ve been able to walk. I grew up with two dogs and 1 cat and I absolutely loved every moment with them. I was always the sitter of the neighborhood and friends. I’ve been walking dogs and visiting kitties for longer than I’ve been able to drive! Devoting love and care to all animals is something I’m really passionate about and is something that is a big part of my life. I’ve volunteered at shelters where I’ve had amazing experiences. I’ve fostered two pregnant kitties who had beautiful litters. One was a foster fail because that once pregnant mama is currently sleeping on my lap! I have a lot of senior experience as I was the main caretaker for both my dogs when they fell old and ill. I’m able to bath, trim nails, brush, and give medications to both dogs, and cats. I believe every animal has their own personality and soul and each one always holds a special place in my heart. Every animal I’ve had the privilege of taking care of I’ve been able to watch more than once because I create a bond so quickly between us. Whenever your pet is in my care, I treat them as if their my own, spoiled rotten and loved!

Bethany made time to come to my house and meet the pets prior, and took excellent care of my animals ! She spent extra time with the boys and sent loads of photos (love!) Will absolutely use her in the future.

Bethany did a super job walking and caring for Emma. She sent pictures and kept us notified of times and how Emma did while we were away. Definitely have her take care of Emma again.

I highly recommend Bethany if you need a pet sitter. We have used Bethany many, many times and it’s a comfort to know that our pets are in her care. She is dependable, reliable and trustworthy. She not only cares for our pets while we are away she goes the extra mile: by getting the mail, watering plants, sending us pictures of our fur babies and she also leaves a daily message in our absence. With Bethany I have no worries about our precious pets. I give Bethany a 5 star rating, she’s the best!!!

Bethany is a great choice to watch your fury friends. I have 2 dogs - one of which is a lab puppy under one year old and the other a three year old German Shepard mix - both very active. Not only did she watch my dogs but she played with them nonstop and got their energy out. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!

Safety, trust & environment

I'm all about safety and taking the appropriate precautions when needed. With bringing in a new cat into my home I was all about making sure all of my different animals were comfortable. When I leave the house for anything I tend to put on "dog tv" for my dogs to help ease their separation anxiety from me to make them comfortable. There is no request that is too much. I too can be a crazy pet lady! Whatever you think your pet needs or will help them, I’m more than happy to help as you know them best.

Information Bethany B. would like to know about your pet

I really would like to know in depth about your dog especially if I have the privilege to take them on a walk. I’d like to know they react to people, children, other animals, etc. This is so I know if they’re reactive or not so everyone can be as safe as we can! Reactive dogs do not scare me in the slightest, I just need to know so if possible I will avoid others when walking! I also would like to know their status of walking on a leash! I’ve walked the highest trained of dogs and I have walked dogs who have practically walked me! I don’t care at all if your fur baby is not the best on walking on a leash, just let me know before hand! I also would like to know their favorite things and least favorite things so I know to avoid them. I also would like to know of any concerns you may have such as if your dog or cat has a certain diet, special needs, etc. For kitties I’d like to their demeanor just because some kitties are very shy. I would love to know how to approach them properly! Also tell me where their favorites scratches are at, as some cats are very specific lol! I just want them to be their happiest, safest, and most spoiled when in my care, and that starts with knowing more from you!

A typical day

I do everything around the sun for the kitties and doggies I get to watch! If I know your cat is obsessed with the red laser, or that mouse toy then that is what we shall do! Your cat loves cuddles? We’re cuddling! Does your dog enjoy fetch? Maybe he prefers their stuffed animals! Whatever they like, we do! I’m very animated when I’m around fur babies so talking to them, running with them, playing with them are the highlights! Just tell me what they love and that’s what we’ll do!

I'm currently a full-time student at college and would really like this to be my part-time job! My hours can be flexible just have to work it around my school schedule. During my free time when I'm not in school I devote almost all of my time into caring and spending time with pets and family.
