Cats and Medical needs!
Pet care experience
I specialize in all cats and especially animals that have senior/medical needs!! Most pet prefer to stay in their own homes while their owners are away. I have taken courses to help understand dog/cat stress and can take steps to reduce as much stress as possible during my stay. I am a girl born and raised in Wisconsin. I moved to Maine to pursue a degree in Marine Science and ended up in Veterinary medicine as a vet assistant after finishing my degree. I needed a big life change and moved in Washington/Kitsap County in 2021! I now work in human medicine as a surgery technician but still love and miss working with animals. Since working in veterinary medicine, I am confident working with animals with a variety of medical needs and behaviors. I have developed a great attention to detail and have learned warning signs of illness. I have also taken many courses on low-stress introductions so I can make sure your pet feels comfortable with me! I am a passionate animal lover and have a multitude of experiences working with pets of all shapes and sizes. I have been the go to person for all of our clients, friends, and family for help with their pets. They know when their pet is with me, they are well cared for. I have been pet sitting for 5+ years and I am always flexible to your pet needs. We know pets can be fussy at times especially when owners are gone and I will ensure they receive their medications, grooming, play time as requested. I would love the opportunity to meet and love your pet!
Reviews
Grace is a gem. She answered my request for a sitter within an hour of posting it. In addition to our little guys, my daughters dog ,Vern, was here too. It takes more time than average for Vern to warm up to people he doesn't know. Grace was very patient with him and kept my daughter up-to-date every day which she appreciated deeply. Our house was spotless when we got home. Grace is a consummate professional. I would recommend her without hesitation.
Grace was a reliable sitter, provided great care and communication during her stay. Would definitely use her again.
Grace is the BEST caregiver for my Franklin. He’s a senior kitty with all kinds of medical issues and requires numerous medications and supplements and she managed everything perfectly. Grace dealt with my oddball requests when it comes to things like how his food is prepared and requesting pictures/ videos of him when i’m away. I felt so at ease with him being watched by Grace and I will only trust her with my boy!
We cannot say enough good things about Grace!!! Our little animal crew can be a lot! From a feisty little Chihuahua mix to a senior guy, a wild cat and a big doofy berner, they are all characters with a variety of needs. They were well cared for and we felt comfortable leaving them with her! Without a doubt, we would highly recommend Grace to care for your babies!!

Safety, trust & environment
I am though rough with home visits. Care with me always includes bathroom habits and appetite are closely monitored, medications are received, and their energy levels are normal. All important things to make sure your pet is happy and healthy while you are away! I understand many pets can be anxious I also always clean up after myself and your pet!
Information Grace W. would like to know about your pet
I always want to know things like your animal's favorite treats, toys, or activities. Other important details include what are they trained to know. What things should I avoid that they don't like, ie triggers or things they are anxious about!
A typical day
I provide different activities always depending on the animal! I'd love to provide walks, food enrichment, playing inside. I always do my best to continue the routine your pet is used to, to help reduce anxiety and stress!
