Pet care experience

Paws from all walks of life

I have no dogs or cat! I live in South Lamar. I have 100+ visits of experience doing drop-ins in Austin. In addition to that, I have years of experience caring for my own pets and friends' and families' pets. I will care for your pet as if it were my own whether that be to play, walk, feed, or administer medication I am there. I know all pets have their different needs and do what I can to make sure they feel like you never left. I used to own a FeLV herpes lymphoma cat that required a lot of medications and a close eye. As a pet sitter, I have plenty of experience watching cats from all walks of life and administering different types of medications, as well as caring for different needs. Available for the holidays! I treat every pet I care for as if it were my own. I work remotely, so I am able to provide care for your pet throughout the day and am happy to discuss specifics. I am also fully vaccinated and can take any precautions as needed. For walking, I am available all day in the local area, on weekdays and weekends. Home sitting is something I currently offers. I am always happy to do meet and greets.

Reliable and communicative. Gisela has watched my cats several times over the years and I trust her with both short and longer periods.

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behavioral needs that I should be aware of. I have experience with pets from all walks of life and would love to do a meet and greet to make sure I am a good fit. What are your Pet's favorite treats? Does your pet have specific medications? Is your pet friendly? Does your pet prefer certain foods? Would you like a meet and greet? What area of town do you live in?
