Loving & Reliable Pet Care

Animals have always brought a sense of peace and joy into my life, and I genuinely love every opportunity to care for them. Whether it’s going on walks, playing with their favorite toy, relaxing on the couch for cuddles, or spending time at the dog park, I enjoy making pets feel happy, safe, and loved. Animals have such a special ability to brighten someone’s day, and I love being able to give that same comfort and care back to them. I’ve been caring for animals since I was young. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and spend quality time with their pets over the years. Growing up, I had 4 Yorkies and as an adult, I also cared for two American Bulldogs, one of whom suffered from severe allergies, so I understand how important it is to be attentive to food sensitivities, environmental triggers, and each pet’s individual needs. I also have experience administering medications, including pills, liquid medications, pill poppers, and oral syringes. My cat Willow, was a sweetheart and required both pill and liquid medications, which gave me even more hands-on experience with patient, gentle care. I know how hard it can be finding someone you trust to take care of your sweet furry babies. I treat every pet as if they were my own and aim to create a safe, comforting, and loving environment while you’re away.

Because of this, I’m not the best fit for bookings that require crate use as part of the routine***

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets at a clients home I am very communicative and respectful of your home and pets. I will always follow the instructions left by the owner and ask questions if I need clarification on anything. I want to give you peace of mind while you are away. I am happy to bring in the mail or water any house plants while you’re away as well.

Hello - It is my pleasure to write this note on Greta Urra's behalf. I've had the pleasure of knowing Greta for 3-years now – as an assistant, as a wise woman whom I use as a sounding board, and as a house and petsitter for our 2 dogs and 2 cats. We used to worry about our “kids” when we left home, but since Greta has been taking care of them (and our house), my wife and I are now completely at ease. In addition to her love of animals and high integrity, Greta is a kind woman with a gentle heart, yet she is also triple-smart and deeply authentic, traits not often found in folks these days. We trust her implicitly. - Best regards, David

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs/ likes and dislikes, their feeding routine and any allergies and behaviors I should know about. Areas that are sensitive or that they don’t like to be touched. Do they have separation anxiety or do they have a favorite toy? I love as much information as you can possibly give :) Please make sure to have the care information filled out for your pet including their vet and emergency contact information; if you will not be by your phone during my visits. This is all super important to have because it’s better to be prepared. Thanks for choosing me for your furry family members 💖
