Loving Animal Connoisseur

Pet care experience

I grew up with furry and not so furry friends my entire life; dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, ferrets, lizards, you name it! What did we do to deserve these precious creatures? I've been taking care of animals from a young age as well as having a house full of loving pets. Dog walking was the first door, I soon quickly knew I wanted to exceed even further. That's when I knew this was my home, I couldn't leave the animal life. I wanted to further my commitment and knowledge. I began looking into working in hospitals and husbandry. I have the experience of animal care in hospitals as well as a zoo with more exotic animals. Their health, happiness, and lifestyle is what is most dearest to me. I was able to do what I love most, caring for animals, everyday. I understand the worry, they are family and I will take very great care for them while having fun going on hikes, cuddles, pets, anything their heart desires. I look forward to meeting you and your dearest ones!

Drayla is awesome! I have an old senior guy who has medicine needs and incontentce :( Drayla was a champ! She was highly communicative and left thorough notes for me about his health while I was away for a long weekend. Definitely booking with her again!

Drayla sat our two cats for a month, one of which requires medication twice per day. She kept excellent condition of our house while we were away and we were able to come home to happy kitties! I’d strongly recommend her!

Drayla did such a great job dropping in to feed and check on my cat Johnson over the weekend.

Drayla cat/house sat for me for a week. Coming home to a spotless house and a HAPPY cat made all the difference! She was so respectful of our space, friendly and clearly very attentive to our needy cat! I’ve never come home from a trip and him be as calm as he was after Drayla’s stay. 10/10, will book again. :)

Safety, trust & environment

We all want what is best for our families. I want them to have full trust with me and feel as though they are loved, being well taken care of, and safe with me. Unfortunately at the moment I can not have pets where I am staying. However, I will do the best of my ability to ensure your pet is safe and is taken very well cared of in their own home.

Information Drayla G. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting, I would like to know of any and all of their medical issues, what upsets your pet(if any), and what your pet loves! Their silly little quirks and habits. I want to ensure they're comfortable.

A typical day

Your little family member and I would go on walks around the neighborhood and neighboring parks! We'll have so much fun at the parks or in the backyard, playing with toys, and belly rubs. If they're a little bit older or maybe a little shy, we can relax and get cozy.
