Pet care experience

Experienced, Reliable, Caring

Matt and I are mature sitters with loads of house and pet sitting experience locally and abroad. Non-smokers that commute by car. Reading, cooking, walking, and art are among the interests that keep us happily occupied while caring for darling pets. We are happy to send you daily photos through text, email, Messenger, or WhatsApp. Let us know when it is best for a meet-and-greet with you and yours in their familiar surroundings.

Safety, trust & environment

Matt and I enjoy interacting with pets. Walking dogs and playing fetch is a great way to spend time. Offering a lap and entertaining cats with feathered wands is fun. Cuddling bunnies, collecting eggs, and growing fodder is all part of the adventure, also. It all comes naturally to us. We provide fresh food and cool water in clean containers. Litter boxes are monitored throughout the day. Dogs are always kept on a leash when on walks.

Bella was great! My husband and I are new to Rover (we usually have family help with care), and were a bit apprehensive about entrusting the care of our babies Buckley and Enzo (and home!) to a stranger. However, Bella proved to be incredibly responsive, caring and easy to work with. After a successful meet and greet, we felt confident Bella would give them the love and differentiated care they need based on their big age difference (Buckley is a senior dog at 13.5, Enzo is an "old" puppy at 2.5). We loved getting the many daily photos of outside and play time, and appreciated Bella's willingness to help us shuffle cars for street cleaning as well as manage trash pick up for the week we were gone. Buckley and Enzo seemed to really enjoy their time with Bella, and my husband and I were grateful to come home to a house as clean as we had left it. We would definitely recommend Bella to others and would be happy to work with her again. Thank you!

Bella has been very responsible and responsive. She kept me updated with many pictures which I appreciated. My dog needed extra attention during this time-medicine etc and she did a great job. She took care of the house too. Informed me on everything. We found Bella last minute but she managed to steal my dog’s heart during the stay. Thanks so much!

Cheri did an excellent job. Our home was perfect will be arrived. Everything clean, and in order….my dog loved her. She sent multiple pictures every day documenting everything even my dog’s medication. If we’re giving stars, I’d give her six she was the best.
