Pet care experience

Mature, conscientious, non-smoker

Being around animals brings me joy and I want them to feel at ease because I know they are missing their pet parents. My calm, patient and kind personality will be comforting to your pet. I’ve given medications and have cared for many types of dogs and cats as well as chickens, birds and a duck! I am also very conscientious about safety, being on time and keeping your home tidy. When you return home it will be as you left it and to happy pets!

Safety, trust & environment

I can pet sit in your home. I do not have my own pets but family members I live with have 2 cats that I often help care for. Safety and caring for your home and pets are important to me. You will return to a tidy home. I am happy to discuss how to accommodate your needs.

House Sitting • Feb 20, 2026

I highly recommend Donna for any pet sitting needs. She was an amazing sitter and took wonderful care of our three dogs, guinea pig, and fish. Our dogs have become very attached to having someone home since my husband started working from home, so it was a huge relief to know they were happy and calm in Donna's care. Her calm demeanor and warm personality made our dogs very comfortable, and we appreciated the daily photos and messages she sent to keep us updated. We also returned to an immaculate house. Donna’s care truly made our vacation much better. Please do not hesitate to book her for your pet sitting needs.

If you are looking for a pet sitter look no further! Donna has watched and cared for our pets, and our house for over 15 years. She was recommended originally to use by a coworker as we had never used a pet sitter before we were a little nervous but she met with us before hand so we could see her interact with our pets and she put our mind at ease. She is caring and respectful of our property and always takes great care of our pets, from our dogs, African gray parrot, chickens and a duck. She is even tempered with a caring demeanor. She responds to our texts checking in on our fur babies quickly and even sends pictures. We couldn't ask for a better pet/ house sitter. When we go away we know our house and our best friends are in the best hands possible.

Donna is an overall wonderful person. She has been pet sitting for our furry family for more than 15 years. She is reliable, dependable and caring. Our animals love her and look forward to her visits. She is an asset to anyone who needs peace of mind when required to leave their pets for any period of time. I highly recommend Donna. You and your beloved pets will not be disappointed.

Donna has watched our pets many times. I almost don’t want to write this review for fear she will become so popular I won’t be able to book her ! She has watched all of our rescue dogs (currently 3) each having their own unique personalities, as well as taking care of our fish and Guinea pigs. It’s an absolute pleasure to be able to go away and know our pets are safe and well taken care of. She sends us daily pictures and keeps the very house clean. Donna is extremely trustworthy and our pets love her. You won’t find a better person for your animals!

Let me know if your pet has special needs, medications, food preferences, and if your pet needs to be lifted or carried. Does your pet have anxiety from loud noises outside? I’ve held many shaking dogs through thunder storms and fireworks! I’ve cared for pets with missing or damaged limbs, and who are elderly.
