Loving and Compassionate Pet Mom!
Pet care experience
I have had pets my entire life-- from dogs and cats to lizards, hamsters, and gerbils. I was always the little girl who was bringing home stray wildlife and begging my parents to keep it. I have been petsitting and housesitting for about 15 years. I am honest, trustworthy, and above all I care deeply about animals. I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and everything in between. I am comfortable administering medication, matching your dogs energy, going on walks, cuddling on the couch, and just being a fun companion for your pet when you can't be. I also have experience with dogs who have been in traumatic situations. I understand how to navigate the boundaries of a scared animal, and I am a gentle and quiet-natured person who most dogs and cats learn to trust pretty quickly.
Reviews
It is always scary leaving your precious creatures behind and having to rely on someone you don't know to care for them. Bethany was reliable, thoughtful, and respectful. We have 3 dogs and two of them are large/giant breeds (80lbs. and 185 lbs.) Bethany only met them once before we left, and she had no issues taking care of them. She even cycled our cats litter box when it decided to malfunction and brought in our mail! Everyone was safe, healthy, and happy when we got back home. She was great. I will definitely ask her to watch them next time we go on vacation.
Bethany was amazing. She took such great care of our dogs and our house, and kept me updated with multiple pictures every day. It’s obvious that she truly loves animals. We have three big dogs, and she wasn’t overwhelmed by them. It was clear that they had a great time with Bethany. It’s so nice to be able to leave town with zero worry/stress about their safety and wellbeing. The house also looked great upon our return. Highly recommend!!
Took great care of our dog, Jen. She warmed up to her and was very communicative and sweet to our pup. Definitely recommend and plan to use again !
Bethany is incredible! She was great with my babies. Very punctual, caring, kind and overall lovely to work with. We will definitely have Bethany over again.

My priority is making sure that your pet is comfortable, safe, and getting the care it needs. I let you tell me about their schedule, your preferences on my time at your house, and your dogs quirks. I am very amenable to adapting my routine to fit your pet's lifestyle.
Information Bethany M. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know: - what makes your dog comfortable? What can I do to help them feel safe with me? - what are your dogs favorite activities? - what medications your dog is on and how they’re administered
A typical day
Each dog is different, so I do my best to match their activity and energy level. This could mean anything from snuggling on the couch to long walks and lots of play time!

Availability
I have a very flexible daily and weekly routine. I am available for drop-ins, walks, and even staying overnight if desired. I am married so my spouse is able to care for my pets while I am caring for yours!
