Responsible and loving pet sitter!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Grace. I am a friendly, enthusiastic, loving, reliable, and responsible pet sitter and walker. At home, I care for 2 cats, a bird, and 2 reptiles. I have 2 years of experience as a small mammal zookeeper, and 5 years of professional cat and dog sitting. As a lover of all animals, I am happy and comfortable to provide care for any type of pet that you have. I look forward to meeting and caring for your furry best friends!

Y'allllll the way Grace is with our cats is fantastic. She takes the time to make sure to learn everything needed to make sure they are comfortable and happy. Our boy (cat) was diagnosed with diabetes and is now eating Diabetic Management (DM) wet food only - this diagnosis happened between this visit and the previous. His sister (also cat) and him have had to go from eating the same dry food side-by-side to eating different food separately in a very sudden change. These co-dependent eaters had been really struggling with the change and we were so nervous to leave them - but Grace has cared for them numerous times previously so we knew she would let us know if any challenges or issues came up. She also came over the night before to learn allllll of the new ropes with their feeding which was soooo appreciated and helped to ease our minds. When our girl outright refused to eat the first night of the booking Grace reached out to me after trying to troubleshoot alone and together we found a solution that worked the whole rest of the trip! I very much appreciate how she is not afraid to reach out with questions, even for cats that she's cared for before. It is so awesome to have a trusted sitter that will go above and beyond!!!

Our cats love Grace - and so do we! She is always in communication and sends great photos and updates. Grace even gained our extra shy cat Yasha's trust this visit: Yasha accepted pets!! A high honor that deserves recognition!

Grace was wonderful with our shy cats! We enjoyed all of the photos and updates, especially of our girl judging from the upper level while looking down upon her kingdom. She got our boy playing and made them as comfy as possible while we were gone. When concerned about our boy hiding away in his carrier she made sure to see if he would come out for food (he did) and let us know her worries right away. He came out for the food and then walked away because he is just Like That and he likes to chill on the blankets in the carrier a lot. Your pets are in good hands with Grace!
