Pet care experience
Services I offer: * Dog walking * Pet sitting (ALL animals) * Overnight/in-home care (ALL animals) * Farms & Exotic Pets * Administering medications (oral & injectable) About Me: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Having grown up with animals in the house such as Guinea pigs, rats, dogs, and cats, I quickly learned to love all species. I was introduced to horses and livestock early on via my grandfathers hobby farm and my love for all animals was cemented. Over the years, I have continued to care for both my own and other animals. This includes experiences such as pet sitting & dog walking for out of town families, farm sitting for livestock such as horses, goats, and cows, and more. I'd love to bring my love of animals and many years of experience to your beloved pet. Medications: Medications can be a daily part of an animals routine, something I am accustomed to with my personal pets. From giving injections & pills, wrapping wounds, and more, most medication routines are no sweat. Farms & Exotic Pets: Even those with farms or exotics need to take a break sometimes! My wide experience can leave you assured that you can relax while you’re away, knowing I am always happy to help. From throwing hay, milking goats, or feeding snakes, I am confident that I can handle any needs your animals may have! Meet & Greets: Many families would like to meet before leaving their pet in anyone’s care, this is completely understandable! Scheduling a meet & greet is a great way to go over expectations in person, show your sitter where your pet’s supplies are, and more. Don’t hesitate to reach out after booking to schedule one!
Reviews
Cat was great—she was very communicative and took great care of my dog and cat. I’ll definitely book again!
Cat was wonderful! Our pets loved her from the moment she came for the meet and greet. She took great care of them while we were gone and provided daily updates. Cat is very trustworthy, punctual, and we plan on booking her again for the next time we travel. Highly recommend hiring Cat to take care of your fur babies!
Cat was an absolute lifesaver! We booked Cat the week between Christmas and new years when it was nearly impossible to find a sitter, and she did an amazing job. She came for a home visit beforehand so we had the chance to get to know her and introduce her to the house and dogs. She took excellent care of our old boys, one of which is over 16 and requires tedious care. She also sent cute pictures and updates along the way. Can’t recommend her enough!
Always a pleasure having Cat watch our pups - our 2 dogs love her. We also really appreciate that she leaves the house clean just as we left it. Very kind and considerate - highly recommend!
About Cat Z.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is always a huge concern for both of us. Keeping doors closed or sneaking in so escape artists have no chance is second nature to me, having owned an escape artist or two of my own. Having been around animals so long, I tend to keep an eye on their mood/personality for changes that may be them not feeling well.
Information Cat Z. would like to know about your pet
Before leaving, I always love to have your trusted veterinarian’s information on hand. If possible, emergency contacts are also great to leave. I would love to discuss allergies, needed medications, and your animal’s daily routine including meal times during a meet & greet!
A typical day
Depending on your animals needs & energy levels, activities can vary! With energetic dogs I am happy to take them on walks, play with cats, or lunge horses.
