Safety, trust & environment

I keep to the schedule of the pet to maintain their sense of normalcy while you are away. I will listen to your pets behavior and body language to determine how much attention and love they need. Some dogs love cuddles and attention, but I've taken care of other dogs who prefer to keep to themselves. This is the same for cats. I send frequent updates via text, I take lots of photos while I'm watching pets. I tend to send 3 updates per day I am there. One in the morning, afternoon, and before bed. If I am just stopping by to let them go potty I also send photos and updates while I am there. I also clean before leaving your home, especially if I stay for more than one night. I will change the sheets of the bed I sleep in, vacuum and wipe down anything I interact with in your home.

Information Grace D. would like to know about your pet

It is important for me to know a dogs general energy level and temperament, that way I can tailor my care to their needs. Also it is important for me to know their usual daily schedule, I find it can help a dog adjust to not having their mom or dad around if I maintain their routine.

A typical day

I love to play with cats and dogs, outside or inside! I am not comfortable taking someone else's dog to a public place where they could get hurt. However I spend lots of time playing with dogs to get all their energy out. Playing fetch, tug of war, and other fun play!

Pet care experience

I have been petsitting since I was 11 years old! I have taken care of a variety of breeds, both cat and dog. For years my clients have depended on me to walk, feed, give medicine to, and love their fur-babies. I have been getting clients through word of mouth for years, and I finally decided to put myself out there online!

Grace comes highly recommended to any pet parent looking for the BEST in animal care. Grace was punctual, professional, and most importantly, dedicated to Teddy, our little yorkie. Her pics and videos provided us with a calm serenity knowing that Teddy was in such good hands. We came home to a HAPPY dog and a CLEAN house. Grace is truly one of the best sitters we've hired. We will definitely be using her services in the future.

I highly recommend Grace! My normally skittish dog took to her right away. Grace is prompt, flexible, and kind.

Grace is amazing - we couldn’t be more happy with the care and attention she shows our pets (babies!). It is also a pleasure to communicate with her - she is professional, personable, and reliable!
