Over the past few years, I've offered private sitting services for smaller dogs as well as for cats, but my experience started when I was a child and dog-sat my grandparents' schnauzer for a week. I have experience caring for animals long-term, while their owners are out of town, and have been responsible for multiple visits a day for as long as a week and a half at a time. A couple of my repeat jobs have involved taking care of animals with special needs -- older pets who required special food and attention. While I'm happy to make home visits near my home, I'd also love to help your pet get outside to stretch their legs and get some exercise with me. Life gets busy, and I'm here to help when your pets need some extra attention!
