Great with cats, too!
Pet care experience
Hi! I graduated from UT in 2021 and now live and work in the Domain. I have walked many dogs and checked on many cats these past years on Rover, in addition to serving private clients and looking after pets for family friends. I have 4 cats (3 at home and 1 that lives with me) and take great care of all my fur babies (my previous two cats lived into their twenties). I have taken care of many cats while friends are away - they call me "the cat whisperer." I know many people have a hard time finding a catsitter on here, so here I am! Every pet has their own distinct personality, and I'm looking forward to meeting yours! I have a car, so transportation isn't a problem.
Reviews
Amazing as always!
Grace was absolutely amazing! My other pet sitter canceled on me and my cat needs her inhaler medication. Grace was willing to help super last minute and did so well with my shy cat who needed her inhaler. I am beyond happy with her service and would book again for sure! She sent the best pictures and helped me through a stressful situation. Words cannot describe how awesome she was!
Grace did an awesome job watching over our two cats and dog. She gave prompt updates and was flexible when our coming home plans changed. I could see in the photos that our pets really enjoyed her presence! 🐱🐱🐶
Grace always takes good care of our fur babies

Safety, trust & environment
I follow all instructions provided and love your pet as if it were my own. I can provide lots of updates or just one a day, whatever sets you at ease! Dogs that are not fully potty trained / frequently mess inside the home will be charged a puppy rate. Puppies that are fully potty trained for the stay are eligible to receive a refund of the puppy fee. Housesitting does not include constant care and is a minimum of overnight with one midday drop in. Puppy rate for housesitting includes 2 drop ins. Additional drop ins may be added for a discounted rate.
Information Grace Y. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know beforehand if they have any traumas/triggers, medical issues/concerns, or any specific rules they should follow, along with their favorite activities. Dogs MUST be up to date on shots and vaccines.
A typical day
We will go on adventures (if desired) and have lots of cuddles. We can play games, go on walks, whatever you want! Your pet’s happiness is my top priority. Both drop ins and walks include food and water refills, plus necessary medications. Drop ins include a quick potty break and indoor play or yard time. Walks are a little more and include full walks. You can expect anywhere between 1/4 of a mile and 1 mile, depending on the dog. Brisk walks are good for their physical health, while walks filled with sniffing are great for their mental health, so in general, I don’t like to push for a certain distance, so much as a dog’s satisfaction. (Unless, of course, there is a physical limitation, and then I will lead them on slow walks to protect joints, injuries, or conditions.)

Availability
I used to do this full time, but since starting my new corporate job I have noticed a lack of puppy kisses and kitty fur. I’m available during the week M-Th between 6-7 A.M. and 6-9 P.M., with limited availability for lunch drop ins, and F between 6-7 A.M and 12-10 P.M. I keep my radius small to ensure I have plenty of time to spend with your critters. I follow notes and plan my schedule carefully so that your pet gets the attention they need. Due to this, I only guarantee exact times (+/- 30 minutes) for animals with medical needs. All other pets will be scheduled as close to the desired times as possible, but are subject to a 3 hour window (+/- 1.5 hrs on either side of the desired time). If you have any concerns regarding this, feel free to reach out and discuss. I do accept bookings outside my service radius, please note that these bookings will incur an additional fee to cover additional travel costs.
