🐾 VIP TLC & Tail-Wagging Fun
Pet care experience
I’m all about laid-back family fun—organized chaos is our norm, and pets fit right in! With a lifelong passion for animals (I’d pick fur-friends over people any day), I’ve cared for dogs, cats, Chihuahuas, bearded dragons, bunnies, raccoons, and even horses. I’m super flexible and happy to roll with any request—from special diets and medication dosing to puppy training basics and gentle senior support. Whether your pet is ready for wild games of fetch, mellow cuddle marathons, or precise health care, they’ll be part of our fun, loving zoo.
Cat care experience
Casandra also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Casandra and her family go above and beyond to care for Finn like he’s a member of their own family, working with my schedule for drop off and pick ups and giving him so much love in between!
Casandra was great! My cats don’t usually warm up to people right away. Well, at least LuLu but she got both girls out to play and get some loving! I got daily updates and pictures which all pet parent needs to make sure that they’re doing well.
My dogs were right at home with Cassandra. They stayed almost a week and it was reassuring to know that they were well cared for.
Casandra took great care of my dog Luka. She sent me some pictures periodically thru out his stay with her. Luka enjoyed his visit and I will definitely have her watch Luka again. 👍🏻 Highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment
Pet-Proofed Zones: Whether I’m in your home or mine, I make sure any space your pet explores is escape-proof and free of hazards. I’m transitioning into our new home so stay tuned for our upcoming fenced yard! Home Away From Home: I care for your pets just like I do my own—every visit is filled with love, attention, and plenty of belly rubs or chin scratches. Supervised Freedom: In my home, pets can roam and play under my watchful eye, with gates to block off off-limits areas. When I visit yours, I stick to your preferred rooms and routines so your pet feels safe and comfortable. Tailored Comfort: I set up your pet’s favorite beds, toys, and blankets, and spend quality time playing, snuggling, or simply being there for company. Clear Communication: I follow your instructions for feeding, meds, playtime, and rest. I will also send daily photo or text updates so you don't miss out :)
