Safety, trust & environment

While spending time with your pet I will treat them with the same care, respect, and love that I would give my own. I do not take lightly the trust that it requires to let a stranger into your home and entrust them with a piece of your heart. I am happy to send updates and photos to put your mind at ease knowing your pet is cared for. I will also keep an eye out for packages and notify you if there is anything that may need your attention.

Pet care experience

I am a lifelong animal lover and have over a decade of experience caring for animals both personally and professionally. Due to frequent moves, I’ve spent the last few years living vicariously through other people’s fur babies, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and needs. I have experience walking and caring for dogs of all sizes, along with volunteering at local shelters to walk dogs and socialize cats. I also spent several years working in conservation, where I helped care for animals including lemurs, sharks, sea turtles, and even baby toucans. I believe animals are incredible communicators, and I take the time to understand each animal so I can respect their boundaries, build trust, and help them feel safe and comfortable. I am currently a full-time online graduate student, which allows me to offer flexible daytime drop-ins and midday walks. I can also often accommodate same day bookings. I would love to get to know your pet and am happy to provide detailed updates and photos while you’re away!

Cassie is the best sitter we’ve had! Our two high energy corgis adore her. She treats them like family and they get so excited when they see her. She is very trustworthy, great at communicating, and sent lots of update pictures. Will book again.

I am delighted to recommend Cassidy as a pet-sitter and dog walker. She has cared for my senior cat on multiple occasions, including extended stays in my home while I was traveling, and I cannot speak highly enough of her. She is exceptionally trustworthy, reliable, and accountable—qualities that are essential when entrusting someone with both your home and your fur baby. I had complete peace of mind knowing my cat was in loving and capable hands. She is gentle, attentive, and compassionate, and it truly shows in the way she connects with animals. My cat absolutely adored her and welcomed her as part of the family, which says everything. I’ve also observed her interactions with dogs, and she demonstrates the same level of care, awareness, and intuitive understanding of their needs. She has a natural ability to communicate with animals in a way they respond to positively and comfortably. If you are looking for someone who will care for your pets with genuine love, responsibility, and presence, I wholeheartedly recommend her. Animals love her—and I believe you will too.
