Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Casey. I was born and raised in the Pasadena, CA area. To simply put it, I love animals! I foster kittens, had a service dog in training for 2 years, and want to work in the field of animal welfare. I have a soft spot in my heart for rescue pets, because working with them has changed my life for the better. My family's first dog was a rescue dog named Charlie. We got him when he was estimated to be between 2 and 3 years old, and it was a big adjustment for him, as he did not have positive experiences with humans in the first few years of his life. I was only about six years old when we got him, and so I grew up learning to respect the boundaries he set, while still reassuring him that I loved and cared about him. Thanks to Charlie, I started volunteering with animal rescues when I was about ten. Because I was so young, I couldn't work directly with them, so I used to bake treats and bring them to their photoshoot days. When I turned 12, I started volunteering at Best Friends Mission Hills (mostly in the kitten nursery, but with dogs as well). I bottle fed kittens almost every weekend from age 12 to 16, in addition to fostering kittens every summer when I had no school. After volunteering at Best Friends, I started volunteering at Pasadena Humane. At PH, I foster kittens (my profile picture features my most recent fosters). I have fostered about 53 kittens so far, and am excited to see that number grow. My schedule is pretty flexible at the moment, but have occasional commitments. If this is the case, I will communicate with you to work something out (though, on the calendar, I try my best to block off the days that I have these commitments) I am experienced in handling dogs and cats with a wide range of temperaments, and have administered medication to pets before in a variety of forms (liquid, pill, injection, topical, etc). I have a special interest in caring for disabled and/or senior pets who require extra care. I will always be transparent with you if, for any reason, I am not able to provide the required care.
Reviews
Casey did an exceptional job and we would definitely hire her again!
Casey was amazing. She housesat for us and took such great care of our dog, Zippy and cat, Scoobie. She was an amazing and respectful houseguest and is a very kind and sweet girl. Zippy LOVED her and even Scoobie, who doesn't always warm up to people, loved her by the end of her stay. She was responsive to all my texts and sent regular videos and photos. Casey is awesome and we will definitely have her take care of our fur babies anytime we go out of town!
Casey is an excellent cat sitter! She kindly offered to meet in person before sitting for Stella, and we hit it off right away. She truly loves cats and it shows in the way she cared for Stella. It was so nice to come home to a happy cat-- I could tell by the way my cat was acting that she was so paid attention to and cared for. Casey is a great communicator and sent lots of photos during her stay. I'm looking forward to hiring Casey again.
Casey was so responsive and took great care of our pets!
