Availability
Pet care is naturally woven into my daily life. I already care for my own cat and small dog, so feeding, walking, playtime, and cuddles are part of my everyday routine. Because I have flexible availability during both weekdays and weekends, I can easily adjust my schedule to fit the needs of pets I’m looking after. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening play sessions, I make sure each pet gets the attention and activity they need.

Safety, trust & environment
Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for pets. In my own home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with secure spaces, fresh water, and plenty of enrichment. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their instructions closely. I maintain the pet’s normal routine—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication—so they feel safe and cared for even while their family is away. I always ask about any special needs, favorite activities, or things the pet dislikes, so I can avoid stress and provide the best possible care.
Information Deidre M. would like to know about your pet
I like to know as much as possible about their personality and routine. Important details include: - Daily schedule: feeding times, walk routines, play preferences, and sleep habits. - Health needs: medications, allergies, or any special care instructions. - Temperament: how they interact with new people, other animals, and any triggers that may cause stress. - Likes & dislikes: favorite toys, games, or activities, as well as things that make them nervous or unhappy. - House rules: whether pets are allowed on furniture, crate training routines, or other boundaries you’d like me to respect. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can tailor my care to keep your pet safe, comfortable, and happy.
A typical day
Every pet has their own favorite activities, so I tailor the day to match their routine and preferences. My goal is to make sure they feel loved, safe, and entertained while you’re away. For dogs, I enjoy taking them on walks or runs, playing fetch, or exploring new routes to keep things exciting. For cats, I provide play sessions with toys, cozy lap time, or quiet companionship, depending on their personality.

Pet care experience
Hello! I’m originally from Upstate New York and currently share my home with a cat and a small dog. Animals have always been a huge part of my life—dogs and cats alike seem to gravitate toward me! I’ve cared for my own dogs from puppyhood through adulthood, and I also have experience training Newfoundland show dogs. At the same time, I adore cats and understand their unique personalities, from playful kittens to independent seniors. Whether your pet is tiny or giant, young or old, canine or feline, I love them all and know how to meet their needs. I offer flexible availability on both weekdays and weekends. I’m happy to take dogs on walks or runs, provide playtime, cuddle sessions, or quiet companionship for cats. I always ask about your pet’s favorite activities, routines, and any dislikes so I can tailor my care to keep them as happy as possible. Your pet’s comfort and joy are my top priority—I’d love to meet your furry family member!

Reviews
Thank you Deidre for taking such good care of My fur babies
She was amazing with my German Shepherd puppy and my 8-year-old husky. She kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell they were very well cared for and getting lots of attention. I would absolutely trust her with my dogs again and highly recommend her!
Deidre is the person I trust most with my precious pups! She is always on time, she is very responsible, and she is a great worker. She gives all of her love and attention to them, even when she isn't sitting for me and is just paying us a visit! My dogs are always excited to see her! Deidre has a personality that draws animals towards her. I have been out in public, and dogs always look to her and want to be pet. Deidre always makes sure to go above and beyond to make sure my pups and myself are happy. I would recommend her to anyone!
