Energetic and Responsible Pet Lover

Pet care experience

I've been pet sitting for over 6 years and love the opportunity to meet new dogs and cats. I love hanging out with pets, but because I don't have a dog of my own, pet sitting is my way to spend some time with pets and help out owners in the area while they're away. I'm an energetic, friendly, reliable person. I have several years of experience as a dog walker and dog/cat sitter, for animals of all sizes and ages. I'm happy to follow any guidelines that you set out so please reach out to me if you are looking for help, even if it's last minute. Pets are family and I know how important it is to find someone who is trustworthy to look after them, so they're in good hands with me.

Claire was great. Very responsive, and our dog and cat loved her. We will definitely consider her again.

Claire is wonderful! One of my shy kitties (who usually stays under the bed when a new person comes in) came right up to her. I guess they can tell :) This really put my mind at ease during my time away-- as did the great communication. I'm very grateful for her help and would definitely recommend her to my friends. THANK YOU, Claire!! We're lucky to have you!

Claire provided us with peace of mind knowing our two cats would be well taken care of while we were away. She followed up after the meet and greet to review instructions, which meant a lot to us. We got home and our cats were happy, healthy, and well fed! Thank you!

I have used Claire’s services twice now. She stops in to feed and pet my cat while I’m away. She is flexible, professional, and conveinient. Will use again!

Safety, trust & environment

I care for all pets as though they were my own! I'm conscientious and always make sure that pets are in a safe environment – from making sure they don't sneak out the door to putting away all food or items they might chew on I keep a close eye on them.

Information Claire G. would like to know about your pet

I would love to learn your pet's routine from meals to activities ahead of time so that I can follow any guidelines that are part of his/her routine. Pet personalities can be as varied as humans so I find it helpful to know about the pet's like/dislikes and other habits.

A typical day

Exercise If your dog has enough energy I will happily take him/her on a run for a couple of miles. Otherwise I can always take him/her to the park to play fetch and perhaps meet some of your dog's pals. Love I will give your dog lots of pets and attention! They'll have just as much love as when you're around.
