Pet care experience

I love animals,as they are,so much!

I’ve pet-sat since I was 13 for neighbors and anyone else. I’ve always been animal-obsessed, and enjoy spending time with any and all pets. I’ve watched dogs, cats, and even birds! I also love a good pup walk, and because of my own ardent sniffer, I’m happy to go at the pace dictated by dogs’ curious nose(s)!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have lived in a variety of situations with different pets throughout my life. I even had my childhood dog with me at college for a while, adjusted to dorm living! I miss my childhood dog a lot as well as the other animals I used to dogsit back at home, and now my roommate’s cat is my primary fulfiller of animal attention. Overall, I am just a super attentive and flexible pet lover. I love learning every animal’s quirks and needs and then fulfilling them. I also understand the worry that owner’s experience when away from their pets, so I’m happy to alleviate that as best I can with updates and video evidence of their contentment.

My dog loves Cali and so do we! She did an extended stay for us, and was great.

Callie was wonderful! She was super responsive and communicative, sending us updates and photos throughout our trip. We came back to a happy pup and a clean apartment. When meeting her for the first time before our trip, we could tell it was going to be a great match. Callie is friendly and professional. We knew Finn was in great hands!

Calista communicated in a timely manner and did a great job of taking care of my dog and house while I was away. I would recommend to anyone looking for a dog/house sitter.

Callista was amazing and I highly recommend her! Super communicative and patient as one of our dogs takes a bit to warm up to new people. Thank you for taking such good care of them!

I work multiple part-time jobs with varied hours. The longest I’m usually gone in one block for work is 6 hours. I’m happy to juggle the chaos due to my current situation and general desire to get as much pet-loving in as possible.

I would appreciate knowing general facts about their temperament, like if they have a tendency to pee if you’re too excited when you first arrive, or if certain things trigger them to bark or get scared. I am pretty good at sensing the vibes of animals upon arrival and carefully testing to find out what their boundaries are, but any extra info ahead of time is super valuable.
