Pet care experience

Trusted, Experienced Pet Sitter

Hi, I’m Debbie! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 25 years of real-world pet sitting experience. Caring for pets has never been “just a job” for me — it’s something I’ve done consistently and responsibly for decades. At one point, I maintained 8–10 regular, long-term clients, many of whom trusted me with their pets year after year. I currently have one dog and two cats of my own, so I understand how important routines, patience, and individual attention are. Every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience with puppies, seniors, cats, and pets who require specific feeding instructions, medications, or extra TLC. I’m calm, observant, and dependable — and I communicate clearly so you’re never left wondering how your pet is doing. You’ll receive regular updates and photos for peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone experienced, reliable, and genuinely invested in your pet’s well-being, I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit. Thank you! Debbie

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or staying in yours, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and stress‑free. For client stays, I follow your instructions closely—feeding on schedule, refreshing water, giving medications if needed, and keeping your home tidy and secure. I make sure pets get plenty of outdoor time, including letting them out into the backyard for potty breaks and taking them on relaxed walks for exercise and enrichment. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

Debbie was amazing. She took great care of our cat Merlin and even brought in our mail and packages for us. It was so nice to just be able to relax on vacation and know that our cat was in very good hands. Merlin was so much more relaxed and content when we came home this time compared to other times where we would have to leave him at a boarding place or leave him on his own for a couple of days. It made such a huge difference for him to have someone like Debbie stopping by every day to check on him and make sure he had everything he needed and give him some attention. Debbie was great with communicating with us whenever she needed to and was very trustworthy. We will definitely be using her services again in the future.

Debbie did a great job taking care of my three cats when I was on vacation. She kept the food bowls and water bowls full and cleaned the three litter boxes. She sent photos of my cats along with any updates. She was very professional. I also asked her to bring in my trash cans from the street and any packages on the front porch, which she did. I recommend her for your pet sitting needs.

Debbie took excellent care of our boys while we were out of state. She was new to our circle but she came and met all of us and was natural and relaxed around the dogs. They instantly liked her and by the time she left we knew she’d be great and she was! She followed our care instructions and kept us informed at each drop in. We were a little anxious about having someone other than our usual person care for our dogs but Debbie was fantastic! Now we have another qualified amazing caregiver for our boys and we couldn’t be more pleased!

I want every pet to feel comfortable and understood, so it helps to know a few things before I arrive. Please share anything about your dog’s routine, personality, or quirks that would help me care for them the way you do. I love knowing their favorite activities, what makes them excited, and what helps them feel calm. It’s also helpful to know about any special needs — feeding instructions, medications, mobility issues, sensitivities, or anything that might make them nervous (like loud noises, new people, or other dogs). If they have specific walking habits, training cues, or house rules, I’m happy to follow them. The more I know ahead of time, the easier it is for me to keep your dog happy, relaxed, and on their normal routine while you’re away.
