“Quirky” ones are my specialty!

Pet care experience

I have been a lifetime animal lover, pet owner and rescue volunteer. I have had experience with cats and dogs of all sizes and ages, as well as fish, reptiles and small rodents. I have also worked part time for a pet sitting agency in the area. My breed grouping of most experience in dogs are bully breeds, which can be stubborn at times, but I love all types. I have saved and rehabilitated a former bait dog, and have worked with a behavioralist on pack training, with my own dogs, to bring peace to my own home. So, I understand “quirky” and am ready and willing to get to know your pack and learn to work with them. While you are gone, have no fear. I will take care of your pets and love them like my own, being sure they are getting enough love and attention: brushing or simple grooming, playing with them and their favorite toys, talking to them, exercising them as well as sitting and having quiet time, feeding them their favorite treats (if you allow). You will also receive reports and photos of your pet with each time I visit. I will also bring in mail, water plants (if applicable), change which lights are left on and off daily. I AM CURRENTLY ONLY OPEN ON WEEKENDS. LONGER STAYS, including weekdays, may be available with 4 weeks advance notice. Contact me for details.

I recommend cindy very highly. She took care of my cat last week and did a wonderful job. She loves animals and it showed. She sent pictures every day when she was here. She played with him and followed all my instructions to the letter. I give her a 10 plus.

Cindy is the type of person who thinks that dogs and cats are not like family, they ARE family and with that in mind, you can be sure that she will treat any pet that she looks after with the utmost care and kindness. All of her pets are rescues and are living in their forever home where they are much loved and well taken care of. On a number of occasions when my husband and I have been out of town, she has come over to look after my cats and has fulfilled all of my requests regarding their care and I highly recommend her.

Trustworthy, knowledgeable &loves pets!! Cindy has exceptional experience with both dogs &cats. She pet-sit our 9yr old blue heeler mix & 8yr old cat for 5days. Our dog Buck is wary of strangers, very protective. She won him over, with her patience & kindness. We had an amazing vacation, confidant in her ability. She was most thorough in her questions for their feeding, temperaments &overall care. A++ ???
