The best care for your best friend!

Pet care experience

My experience working with dogs as large as 180lb English Mastiffs from 10lb French Bulldogs to the long-haired 20lb Maine Coones has given me a vast array of skills to make sure that your loved ones are walked and cared for properly. When dog and house-sitting, I am strict when following any necessary medication or food schedules and more than happy to keep up with the unique needs of your pet to ensure they are as comfortable as possible while you are gone. Rain or shine, dog-walking will be no problem at all, and if your pet is currently in the training process while they are in my care, I have experience with training-treats and healthy usages of commands based on positive reinforcement. Adapting to each pet's individual personality is my special talent as what is overbearing for one animal may simply not be enough cuddles and attention for the next! Feel free to ask me any questions and I look forward to meeting your furry friends!

Derowen is the best cat sitter! We left our kitties for a week, which we have never done before. I was so nervous leaving them alone for so many days that I drove separately in case I needed to come home if Derowen reported any problems. The kitties were perfectly fine in her good hands. She has to give one of our cats medication twice a day, and she takes care of this easily. Our female cat has always shied away from anyone she doesn’t know— this time Derowen and Mochi became great friends ! Derowen provides us with many pictures at each visit and great updates each time as well. Our family feels very comfortable with her taking care of our “ babies”. We have had her come several times now to care for them— every time we know they are getting the best care. Thank you Derowen for all of your kindness, help and care of our precious babies!

Derowen takes the best pictures and always writes really sweet notes telling me how my fur babies are doing. Ajax and Minky love her.

Derowen provides detail-orientated walks with some of the greatest photos. The type of report cards you get that make you smile & know your pet is in good care.

As always, Derowen takes the best care of my girls. Someone who is super compassionate and trustworthy. Reading my updates and seeing pictures while I’m away is such a highlight and puts the biggest smile on my face!
