Pet care experience

🐾 Trusted Pet Sitter & Pet Lover ⭐

Hi! I’m Francisca! 👋 I’m a nursing student, CNA, and lifelong animal lover who genuinely enjoys caring for pets. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or prefers a quiet companion, my goal is always the same: to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs through professional pet sitting, previous work at Banfield Pet Hospital, and a lifetime of caring for my own pets. My healthcare background has made me calm, detail-oriented, and attentive to changes in behavior or health. I’m also comfortable administering oral and injectable medications when needed. Cats hold a special place in my heart, and I absolutely love caring for feline families. Whether your cat is outgoing and social or prefers to observe from across the room, I’ll respect their personality, move at their pace, and work to earn their trust. I also enjoy caring for dogs and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. I know leaving your pet with someone new can feel stressful, so communication is one of my top priorities. I’ll send thoughtful updates and photos throughout each visit so you always know how your pet is doing and can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. When I’m not pet sitting, I’m usually studying for nursing school, spending time with my three cats—Jaxon, Freddy, and Asher—or enjoying the outdoors during the summer. While you’re away, I will: • Follow your pet’s routine closely • Provide plenty of love, playtime, and attention • Keep food, fresh water, litter boxes, potty breaks, and medications on schedule • Administer oral and injectable medications if needed • Send regular photo and message updates • Treat your pet like one of my own I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet, and I look forward to providing the same loving, dependable care that I would want for my own animals.

Safety, trust & environment

I carefully follow all care instructions provided by pet parents and make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I prioritize maintaining your pet’s routine, providing plenty of playtime, enrichment, affection, and clear communication throughout each visit. If I ever have a question, I’ll always reach out rather than make assumptions, so you can feel confident your pet is receiving the best possible care.

Francisca was a wonderful cat sitter. She followed my care instructions perfectly and sent very thorough updates after each vist. My shy cats even made an appearance when she came over. I would definitely book her again!

Francisca watched over my two cats for 9 days and I couldn’t have picked a better person for the job. She dropped by twice a day making sure their food and water were full while also making time to pet and play with them. Her communication throughout the time was excellent and she also provided multiple pictures of the cats for each visit. I highly recommended Francisca if you are looking for a responsible pet sitter. I definitely will be utilizing her services again.

I appreciate learning as much as possible about your pet before I begin caring for them. Please share any important details such as allergies, medications, feeding instructions, daily routines, favorite activities, behaviors, fears, or anything that helps your pet feel more comfortable. The more I know, the better I can tailor my care to your pet’s individual needs and help them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. If I ever have a question, I’ll always reach out rather than make assumptions so your pet receives the best possible care.
