Experienced Pet/Home Sitter- WALKS!

Pet care experience

I’ve been pet and house sitting (in addition to childcare,) for 10 or so years now. My goal is to ensure my clients come home from their trips to that “just the way we left it” feeling. I’m currently freelancing and work from home so my availability is flexible, and I don’t mind traveling a little to help a pet and their owner out! I help with a variety of tasks to make sure your time away from home is nothing but a breeze, from maintaining clients gardens and dehumidifiers, taking out the trash, etc. But mostly, I do this for the walks. I love getting out my own energy along with your pupper, and I think a wagged-out doggo is the best doggo. My own Shiba Inu, Sammy, is nearing 11 now. I became his primary owner when my parents divorced about 6 years ago, and he has taught me so much in those last few years, about reading your dog’s mood and vibes, so to speak... In that time I helped to raise my ex’s rescue from just 8 weeks old, and learned just how important patience and routine are in a dog’s world. Pet and house sitting for a family friend for the past 4 years, I’ve worked with an elderly cat and an energetic, medium-large, mixed “Miss Daisy,” and am recently taking on their new kitten addition. I’ll bring in the paper, water their flowers and plants, make sure the pets are fed/“watered,” and entertained! It’s my favorite part of the summer, which is why I’m looking to expand and take on new pets to walk and, well, pet!

Cassandra gave excellent care to both my dogs . Richie is a senior dog with health issues and he was well cared for by Cassandra. My other dog Ari is a puppy who likes a lot of attention and she provided that. She also went above and beyond cleaning up the mess my senior dog had. Would definitely recommend her. She sent photos and gave updates of what was going on during each visit.

Cassandra is excellent. She came over to meet our 5 dogs ahead of her 1st scheduled visit. She really tried to understand each of them individually and our routine. Our dogs loved her. And so do we...she kept us updated with pictures. She asks great questions. We do not hesitate to highly recommend her!!

Very personable and easy to work with. Our timid dogs did well with Cassandra. I would use her again.

Information Cassandra C. would like to know about your pet

I see the best in all, but I do need to know if your dog has triggers, or “bad habits,” i.e. nipping at food, aggression with animals, humans, etc., eating socks... In general, let me know anything that strays from the norm, because I don’t want any trips to the emergency room, for your pooch or myself!

A typical day

Walks, fetch, dog parks (depending on size and temperment of your pooch,) TREATS! I love doing “hide and seek treats” with my own pup; I’m willing to learn your dog’s favorite “games,” too!
