Highlights
Pet care experience
Compassion, Reliability, Integrity
With a lifetime devoted to animals, I bring decades of hands-on experience caring for creatures great and small. I’ve managed barns and stables for years, giving me a deep understanding of structure, safety, and routine. I’ve rescued and fostered dogs, cats, and even bunnies my entire adult life, and I can read an animal’s body language and needs like a book. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, senior, or special-needs, I adapt to them—meeting them exactly where they are. My clients trust me because I am honest, professional, and responsive, treating every pet as if they were my own. You can expect dependable updates, thoughtful care, and a safe, happy environment for your four-legged family member. What I Offer: - Calm, confident handling of animals of all sizes and temperaments - Experience with multi-pet households and special care needs - Clear, timely communication and photo updates - A compassionate, respectful approach that prioritizes your pet’s comfort and well-being If you’re looking for someone who combines professional-level animal care with genuine love and intuition, I’d be honored to care for your pets.

Ratings and reviews
Grace is awesome! My dog liked her right away. I felt comfortable leaving my dog and cat in her care after meeting once. She kept me informed and sent lots of pictures.
Grace was amazing! I’m a first time Rover user and I was a little nervous to leave my high energy pup for the day. But Grace was confident and immediately put me at ease. She treated our home and our fur babies like her own. Will be contacting Grace again next time we’re out of town :)
Very kind to my golden!
Grace really helped us out when another walker cancelled on us last min!! I got a picture and Nala had so much fun. She treated my baby like she was hers. Amazing job!!
Grace is AMAZING. I had to go out of town on short notice and needed someone I could trust with my two goofy Labradors and our rescue rabbit. She handled it all like a pro, keeping the dogs’ energy in check to making sure the rabbit’s area stayed clean and cozy. I got daily updates with the sweetest photos, and I came home to happy pets and a spotless house. She’s a total gem and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.
I was nervous about leaving my senior cat + two bonded parakeets for the first time but Grace instantly put me at ease & took extra time with my cat’s meds; also kept my birds' cages spotless. The updates she sent were so thoughtful & she clearly both understands animals + goes above & beyond to make them feel safe. I came home to a calm, clean, happy household & literally breathed a sigh of relief & total gratitude for a job well done 🙌 thank you Grace u are truly a rockstar Needless to say I couldn't have asked for a better experience with Grace / with any other pet sitter & definitely will hire Grace again in the future!!!

Schedule
I work part-time and for myself, so my schedule is wonderfully flexible. That means I can plan my days around your pet’s needs—whether it’s early morning playtime, mid-day check-ins, or evening snuggles. I love having the freedom to give animals my full attention and keep their routines consistent and stress-free.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In Your Home: I follow your instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent—feeding at their usual times, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes or tidying up after play, administering any needed medications, and giving them the exact mix of play, exercise, and downtime they enjoy. I also keep your home tidy, bring in mail/packages, and send regular updates with photos so you know your pet is happy. In My Home: Pets get a calm, clean, and safe environment with plenty of affection and attention. I prioritize health and hygiene—fresh water, clean litter boxes, cozy bedding, and enrichment activities to keep them stimulated. I make sure every animal has space to feel comfortable, whether they’re social butterflies or need quiet time. Above all, I treat every pet like my own—earning their trust, respecting their boundaries, and making sure they feel secure until you’re home.
Pets
A typical day
I love to keep pets happy, healthy, and engaged. For dogs, we’ll enjoy walks, sniffing adventures, and games to burn energy. For cats, there’s playtime with toys, gentle grooming, and plenty of affection (or quiet companionship if they prefer). Both get fresh water, meals on schedule, and a calm, loving environment.
