Longing for fur on my clothes!!!
Pet care experience
Love all animals, as soon as I turned 17 I had pets nonstop! Everyone would bring neglected, abandoned animals to me, knowing I would never turn any away. My favorite pet ever was my Great Pyrenees - Bumble. When my kids were young I was a nanny, pet sat for those families and my friends and family. I love animals so much that I spent years doing allergy shots for cat allergies, and now can have my own cats! I enjoyed many pets over the years, cats, dogs, bunnies, small mammals, reptiles, even a beautiful painted turtle. Happy to take care of any species. My husband and I try to provide the same care for your furry children that you do. We both believe in positive reinforcement and do not think there is any such thing as a bad animal. I work outside the home but partner with my husband. He is also a Rover sitter who does fulltime pet sitting. Between the two of us we can provide midday breaks to any pets when we are on a house stay but we do require they can be alone at least 4-6 hours. We do not offer constant care. We are Bonded and Insured for your additional assurance.
Reviews
Donna is AMAZING. She has watched our two cats multiple times, and for good reason. She is communicative, including sending multiple photos and updates, and she really went the extra mile for one of our cats who has issues with anxiety. I can’t recommend her enough!
Simply the best! Donna took care of our senior cat and gave her the love and attention that she needed. Her communication and check ins were fabulous and we were able to enjoy our vacation fully knowing our sweet cat was in good hands.
Donna and Stephen were great with our dog Elaina. They provided photos and updates multiple times a day and made Elaina's time away from us very comfortable. We will defintely be using them again! Thanks Donna!
Absolute perfection! Loved by my two kitties and me for her kindness, expertise, professionalism, reliability, photography, communications, etc. etc. etc. (!!!!!)

I love all animals, have had all breeds of dogs: mixed breeds and pure breeds from my smallest, a beagle, to my largest, a Great Pyrenees. I have had several pets with special needs and want to know exactly what your pet needs.
