Your pets will receive the highest level of care and attention. You set their routine, and I will follow it closely to ensure their daily needs, happiness, and well-being are fully met. 🐾

Information Dusty W. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know each pet’s routine, temperament, and any specific needs ahead of time. I like to understand their feeding schedule, exercise habits, and any medical needs or medications. It’s also helpful to know how they interact with other animals and people, along with any triggers, fears, or behaviors I should be aware of. I also ask for emergency contacts, vet information, and any house rules so I can keep everything consistent. The more I know in advance, the better I can make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable.

A typical day

I make sure every pet I watch has a fun, engaging, and comfortable experience with me. I’ll take them on walks, play their favorite games like fetch or tug, and spend quality one-on-one time giving them attention and affection. For more active pets, I enjoy longer walks or outdoor time, and for calmer or senior pets, I focus on gentle activity, companionship, and lots of cuddles. I also like to include simple enrichment activities to keep them mentally stimulated, and I always follow their routine so they feel secure and at ease. My goal is to make sure they’re not just cared for, but genuinely happy while they’re with me.

Pet care experience

I have a wealth of experience and a genuine love for animals! My background in house and pet sitting spans more than 20 years, combined with 9 years of veterinary technician expertise, along with obedience and confirmation training, which makes me a valuable resource for home/pet owners. Highlighting my international experience and specialization in various types of animals, including exotic ones like elephants and large cats, sets me apart in the field. I would be happy to offer a chat. Meow, Barks, and Tail Waggggs 🐾 💖  Cheers Dusty xx PS: I am happy to offer references

I would highly recommend Dusty for most anything I could think of. She is efficient, hard-working, honest, dependable, and has a great personality. She dog sat and house sat my fur baby in my home for a week while I was out of state. While I was gone, Dusty would send me videos of my lovable Maltese so I could talk to her. It was a super surprise and I was so happy she thought to go the extra mile. It was very evident that they were having a good time. When I returned, my house was clean and orderly and my little Lilly looked like she had been well taken care of and had enjoyed her week with Dusty.

Anyone who is lucky enough to have Dusty take care of their pet will never want anyone else again. She is reliable, and trustworthy. Our dog adored her and we knew we could go away with no worries. We would highly recommend Dusty and would love to have her take care of our dog again sometime. In fact we would consider her a friend now and would welcome her anytime.

This is regarding my pet/house sitter Dusty White. I live alone with my little dog Beau. Beau has diabetes and cataracts which limit his sight. Beau needs insulin injections twice a day to control his diabetes. Ms. White took care of Beau while I was on a cruise for 16 days. Beau was well taken care of and received a lot of attention. Ms. White sent me photos or videos every day so I could see how my Beau was doing. I came home to fresh linens on my bed and a freshly vacuumed home. My little Beau is everything to me and I trust Ms. White to take excellent care of him. Regards, Diana Bell
