Pet care experience

I want Hobby Lobby spending money!

I do not have professional pet sitting experience, but I do have experience taking care of pets (& 2 teenage boys). Just let me know what you are looking for and I will tell you if I can make it happen! I have been employed with the same company for 34 years. I am looking to make some extra money because teenagers are expensive and I would like to keep my sanity by shopping the aisles of Hobby Lobby. I work Monday - Friday from 9-4. Nights and weekends I have open availability. Mornings, I can be flexible depending upon what needs to be done. I have taken care of dogs, cats, fish, guinea pigs, chickens, and hamsters. I am not a fan of slithery reptiles though.

Denise did an amazing job taking care of my two high maintenance and high energy dogs! It was my first time leaving them and I was very nervous but she went above and beyond to take care of them like they were her own and she kept me looped in every step of the way. We even had some weird things come up during her time with my dogs, and she handled it like a real pro, clearly putting my dogs needs above all else. I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone needing dog care in the future!

Denise is amazing! I have 3 high energy, people picky, miniature schnauzers. They usually take a bit to warm up to new people but they took to Denise immediately, which says a lot! Denise took excellent care of my pups, provided great communication and even sent a few photos while we were away. I never had to worry whether they were in good hands or not. I will definitely be booking with Denise again! Stella, Stetson, and Dash say thank you, and they miss you! ❤️

Denise was great! Our precious Mr. Crook was fat & happy when we came home. He's a difficult cat and not for 'beginners'... as the vet said. Denise made friends with him and he began to sleep with her, which is a major accomplishment. I'll definitely use her again.
