Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving & Experienced pet caregiver
Over the years I've had experience with all stages and ages of pets, especially dogs, but also including horses, chickens, fish, guinea pigs, bunnies, cats etc. I've raised and cared for my own pets from puppies to elder dogs, special needs to the most energetic (or anxious). I've taken in some willful and anxious fur babies that have thrived and became amazing loyal, obedient and loving companions. I have also been blessed with 4 amazing grown kiddos that have pets of their own and I get to care for them often and its the best!! Most of my/my families pets have been rescues but we've also had/have several pure bred Animals (Long-haired German Shepherd, Newfoundland, Maltese, Blue Pittie). I like to make sure the fur babies get lots of love and exercise, but its also okay if your pet is a bit more stand-offish. I truly appreciate when pet parents leave information about routine, pets personality and preferences and will follow instructions meticulously. Special needs, medications, puppy care, etc are also welcome (of course!!). Feel free to ask any questions...look forward to chatting and meeting you/your fur babies.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I only care for pets in your/their home. I am primarily looking for overnight sits, but will also be available for walks and drop-in care.
Ratings and reviews
Lynn stayed with my 1&1/2 year old lab mix rescue and was great! She kept him on schedule and was flexible so he was not crated for long stretches. She had great communication with me.
Lynn is fantastic with our pets! Our 2 cats and 2 dogs love her when she comes. She is very dependable and spends quality time with our pets during visits. Our cats, even the shy one, interacted with Lynn! She is great at providing feedback about the pets during the visits and will ask questions should she need clarification or if a concern arises while caring for them. We had a great experience with Lynn, felt comfortable with her in our home, and will definitely use her in the future for our pet sitting needs!
Donna is an amazing petsitter. She is extremely organized and loyal. She will never cancel on you last minute leaving you scrambling to find someone like many petsitters will. She will always help you if she can and loves ALL animals.

Schedule
I am an empty-nested Mom and Mimi with my kids' families being spread around CO, NC, TN, GA, STX so I travel to see kids/grandkids/family...a lot...and I love it. This gives me the flexibility to do house sitting/pet care around those visits (in some cases, I've done sits near my kids as well and check both boxes, pet care and visits with the fam). I'm looking to pet/house sit almost full-time around family visits. I'm also VERY open to traveling to pet sits outside my home base area, overseas as well. I lost my little Maltese "Smiles" a few years ago and have poured my snuggles into my kid's 6 dogs. With my travel schedule its hasn't felt like the right time to add a new pet to my personal life so getting to love on my families' pets and those that I sit for really helps fill that void.
