Love and Affection When You're Away

Leaving your pet in a loving home is a great choice, especially when your loved one is prone to stress. I've worked at animal hospitals, rescue centers and boarding facilities, and have cared for breeds ranging from Siamese's to Shephards. I have a little pup of my own, and know our pets are family that we simply want the best for. A keen eye, a gentle touch or a playful day....each pet is different, and I tend to that need. I have a fairly flexible schedule and can drop-in for senior dogs, young pups, and well as those who just love attention. I'm also available for walks and house sitting.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a Shih Tzu of my own. He is an older dog, so he doesn't play as much as a younger dog but he is great company if your pup would like it.

Fatima is very professional and a true lover of animals. From the moment she walked in and lovingly tolerated my cat's love nibble, I knew that she was a great sitter. Fatima took time to not only take care of my cat, but show her true affection, which meant a lot and put me at ease as I traveled. In addition, Fatima was very thorough during our initial chat and made sure that she was ready to address any health issues that may cat may have had. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Fatima to anyone for cat or dog care.

House Sitting • Oct 04, 2015

Fatima was able to come through for us on short notice. She sent lots of pictures and was very responsive with good communication. Unlike other sitters who offered "house sitting", however, she did not actually stay in our home with our boxer, Kona. Instead, she came for a walks a few times a day with visits lasting no more than 30 minutes or so. While this may be fine for other dogs, we knew it would not be enough for a high-energy dog like ours. We had to supplement her visits with a neighbor who came by to check in on our dog as well, which meant paying two people to take care of her while we were gone. Although it all worked out, it was a little complex and not as smooth as we would have liked.

I had Fatima take care of my Boston Terrier, and she was amazing. She was very flexible given the short notice and kept me up to date constantly. I will definitely be contacting her in the future.

Fatima is very compassionate about animals and spends most of her time taking care of them. When baby sitting cats/dogs, she pays full attention to detail (checking for any broken toe nails or signs your fur baby may not be feeling well) She has experience giving oral meds as well as insulin injections to dogs or cats who have diabetes. She is very professional and takes her job seriously. She is also a very reliable person and you can count on her to be on time. I trust her completely with my furbabies and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dog sitter. Stop searching any further because you have your girl right here! she will spoil your furbabies and give them lots of TLC ??
