I will closely follow the routine you have set for your pet(s) and ensure they feel loved and stable while you’re away. My home is pet safe with nothing left on the ground and food always in raised cabinets. If I’m staying in your home, I will leave it clean and well tended to. And I’ll, of course, send you tons of photos of your pet along with updates so you know they’re in good hands :)

Information Claire S. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know how your dog interacts with other dogs and if they are likely to have an accident indoors. It is also helpful to know their exact feeding/walking schedule and how long they can be left alone, just in case.

A typical day

My neighborhood is very walkable with dog-friendly parks and lots of fellow dogs to interact with. I'll take them out multiple times a day to keep them active, and will happily throw around their favorite toy(s) or stay in and cuddle on the couch—whatever your pup prefers. If a cat is staying with me, I have windows with lots of sunlight to lounge in, and will be happy to engage them in playtime if they’d like! I love kitties of all temperaments, and can provide snuggles or give them space depending on what they prefer.

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for dogs and cats from a young age including neighbors’ and my own pets. I’m experienced with walking dogs up to 50 pounds, keeping a training schedule, and administering medicine. I love cuddling, so will give your animals lots of love and scritches while you’re not with them!

I booked a daycare stay with Claire, and she was great with my dog! She was easy to coordinate with, flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, very responsive, and sent plenty of updates and photos throughout the day, which I really appreciated. It was clear that she was attentive to details and followed all of my care instructions. My dog clearly had a great time with her and came home happy. I'd definitely book with Claire again and would highly recommend her to others.
