Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet lover you can trust (:
My whole life I've grown up with many dogs and I absolutely adore them!! I love walking them, playing with them, taking them out for car rides, etc. For a little over three years now I've been dogsitting and catsitting for my dad's friends. I've cared for cats previously, but I didn't have my very first cat until very recently, and I adore them as well! I'm more than willing to scoop litter, pick up after they potty, walk pets, and have a designated play time with them (:

Safety, trust & environment
In client's homes I make sure to spend a good amount of time with pets because I know they're missing their owners. I give them treats, pet them, cuddle with them, and walk them. Before I leave for anywhere I make sure that they have food, water, and they've used the potty, that way clients can be assured there will be no accidents in the home, and their pet is being properly cared for. Some cats prefer to spend time alone, and if that's the case, of course I have no problem leaving them be. As a pet owner myself, I can tell when sometimes the pets don't want to play and just wanna nap, or when they want to be left alone. Additionally, I make sure to take care of their house and clean up after myself! Beforehand, I'd love to meet with the client that way I can get to know everyone, and build some trust between me, the client, and the pet (:
Ratings and reviews
Claire has been an amazing Rover. She takes such good care of Tsunami everytime she watches her and communicates very well! She will 100% be my go to for future trips. I would recommend Claire to anyone in need of house sitting and looking for someone they can trust!
Claire was so wonderful to our dogs! She watched them at our house for a week and was very accomodating and flexible with our late night flight schedules. Our dogs were so calm and relaxed when we came back, which is unusual for them. We felt it's because Claire was excellent and thoughtful with her care! She was so sweet to our anxious little dog and was able to keep our high energy border collie fulfilled. She took initiative and got creative with taking care of them when there was thunder and changes in work schedules. Highly recommend Claire and will absolutely be reaching out to her first anytime we need someone!
Claire was the absolute best! She watched Tsunami on my wedding weekend and gave me and my now wife the peace of mind we needed while we were away. She was diligent, adaptable and so good with Tsu. I give her a 10/10 and will be booking her again!
Claire was a great house-sitter! She was prompt, flexible and loved our beloved dog Scamp. She communicated with us daily. We would hire her again.
Claire has been watching my pets in my home for about a year now. she is my first call anytime I am traveling. The dogs love her and she keeps the plants watered and house tidy. I always return to a happy home. I will continue to call her before anyone else.
Claire N. is an absolute gem, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She has cared for my own pet, and seeing firsthand how she treats her with the utmost patience, affection, and genuine joy gives me total peace of mind. What makes Claire an awesome human being is her innate kindness and reliability—she doesn't just do a job, she truly connects with the animals and treats them as if they were her own. On top of that, her customer service is stellar; she is incredibly communicative, organized, and always goes the extra mile to make sure both the pets and their owners are happy and comfortable."

Schedule
Now that I'm back in school, I won't be as available to be with dogs during the day time. Monday through thursday, I have classes for about 4 hours at a time. I am still more than able to stay overnight with the doggies, as well as walk them in the afternoon or morning. At night, I usually work for about 5/6 hours, and am flexible enough to check on pets after work as well. Since cats don't require to be let outside, I'll be much more flexible with catsitting than dogsitting, but am still willing to do both! I usually work at my job 3-4 nights a week.

- I'd prefer pet owners to let me know about behaviors that may not be typical for their pet, that way if I see this specific behavior I can know whether to be worried or if I need to contact the owner. Every pet has their specific needs and every pet works differently, so notifying me of any random quirks or things is also super helpful! (:
