Pet care experience

i have had dogs, cats and other pets all my life. decades of experience caring for animals; different types and different settings/needs. very attentive and meticulous about the details, so your little one will be in excellent hands. emotionally in tune to what animals are feeling. i can monitor and sense how they are feeling quickly and easily. i really enjoy being outdoors, so we will have a great time on long (and shorter) walks. i am good with animals who may be a bit shy and helping them feel calm when outside of their home. also helping them feel safe to engage with and make new friends. I LOVE TO PLAY! so, we will have a great time together. schedule with me today! : )

Ché is absolutely incredible! At my initial inquiry about house sitting my cats, she was incredibly quick to respond and began to help me feel comfortable leaving town and leaving my kitties. She is super friendly and professional, with a great care for animals. Incredibly detail oriented, she was very thoughtful with taking care of the home as well as the pets while I was away. A great communicator who sent many updates while I was away, especially about one of my more anxious cats. One of my kitties has a bit more specific care instructions than normal, Ché was on top of everything and made sure all of his needs were met. I have rebooked her since, and will continue to do so.

If you need a dog sitter/house sitter, Che is the best!!! We needed a sitter at our house for our two dogs for the holidays. Our usually boarding place was completely booked and our normal house sitter was unavailable. We were really in a spot and apprehensive to have a stranger stay in our home to take care of our dogs. Then we found Che. Her profile seemed perfect for what we needed, we hoped. We couldn’t be happier with the results! Che was so great with our babies and sent lots of updates, videos and pictures. Her communication was excellent! Our dogs have absolutely loved her! She asked all the right questions not only about the dogs but with taking care of our home. One of the dogs has some tending to with medications and she handled it perfectly. Che is extremely professional with a wonderfully calm demeanor that lets you know, it’s going to be alright. Very professional, put us at ease. We would absolutely book Che again without hesitation. So happy to have found her and our dogs will certainly look forward to seeing her again!!!

Che sat all day with our puppy Tessie. She did a wonderful job keeping us informed and keeping Tessie busy. We highly recommend Che for her reliability professionalism and communication skills. We certainly plan on booking with her again.

We left our 3.5 month old pup with Che’ overnight and couldn’t have been more pleased! I was very anxious as I know we were asking a lot with a new pup. She was patient and followed our instructions implicitly. Sadie pretty much needed constant care at this point, Che’ had no problem making sure she went outside to potty, even in the middle of the night and again up at the crack of dawn and raring to go at 5am! She also administered her medication, and there were no issues. I would not hesitate to have Che’ come to our home again and take care of our pets. Our home was left as we left it, and we appreciated her care so very much.

Safety, trust & environment

the day begins with food and a walk. perhaps a midday walk, depending on the energy level of the doggie. another meal in the evening. a walk to conclude the day. if your dog is more active, walks can be longer with play time included. i treat your home as though it is my own. i clean up after myself and your four-legged family. you can be confident that you will return to your home exactly as you left it. general cleaning and upkeep related to your fur family, and myself, are included in my house-sitting services (i.e. bowel remnants, kitchen, furniture and floors). any upkeep, troubleshooting, management, clean-up, etc. that are not related to fur friends or myself will incur additional fees.

Information Ché F. would like to know about your pet

i like to know what their daily schedule is like so i can maintain that. i know there is safety and security in keeping their day-to-day the same. some general notes about temperament, food, playing + walking preferences and any other pertinent idiosyncrasies. it is important to know if they have any acute/temporal or on-going ailments.

A typical day

i really enjoy longer walks or hikes, if they are up for it! fetch is a classic favorite too. having time to just be and relax outdoors is preferred too; we can both get some fresh air and soak up the sun!
