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 :) It is extremely important to note if your pet has ever shown any aggression, big or small. Whether it is food aggression or towards anything else, sharing triggers are a must to ensure a safe environment.

Information Casandra S. would like to know about your pet
Behavior & Triggers: Any aggression or fear triggers (other dogs, strangers, loud noises) and preferred handling of stress. Kennel/Crate Use: Are they crate-trained or do they prefer free roam? Diet & Meds: Dietary quirks, treat rules, and detailed medication schedules. Daily Routines: Usual meal times, potty cues, exercise needs, and bedtime habits. Personality Quirks: Favorite toys, comfort spots, separation jitters, or any special snuggle preferences. Home Access: Alarm codes, gate locks, parking instructions, or any other access details (If applicable) **If a dog is listed as potty trained but has multiple accidents or shows they are not house-trained, I may need to end the stay early and request pickup to maintain a clean and comfortable environment for all.
A typical day
Morning: Snuggles and breakfast, then out for a walk or backyard zoomies. Midday: Quick snack (if allowed), potty break, then playtime—fetch, tug, or puzzle toys, followed by a good nap. Afternoon: Park trips, pup cups, or even tagging along to soccer practice. Evening: Dinner, sunset stroll or backyard play, then belly rubs and bedtime wherever they feel most cozy. Every day’s an adventure, tailored to your pup’s energy level and favorite activities!

🐾 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
My Great Dane has spent a lot of time with Cassandra and her family over the last two years. They love Rosie and take excellent of her.
Luka always has a fun time staying with Cassandra!
Cassandra did a fantastic job caring for my three kitties. She kept me updated with great communication and photos, and I loved knowing she took time to play with and interact with each one.
Our dog always loves staying with Cassandra. He gets spoiled and she sends pics which help us not miss him too terribly.
