Responsible Pet Enthusiast

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Harlie and I am here to ease your worries. I've been surrounded by animals my entire life, from cats and dogs to birds and guinea pigs. My pets are my family and I know I would want them treated as such. I promise to extend the same level of care to your loved ones, so that you and your pet(s) can have some peace of mind throughout the sitting experience. Pet Care Experience: 20+ Years of Animal Interaction, Multiple Client Base Outside of Rover, Animal Handling Expertise (reptiles, canines, felines, rodents, insects, and also a specialty in house plants), Extended Overnight/Daily Care for Traveling Clients, Medication and Basic First Aid Experience, Have Read "Marley & Me" On A Plane and Didn't Cry (I definitely did). Special Skills: Specific care is extensive. I am capable and knowledgeable in administering multiple forms of medication to animals if they have existing conditions (i.e., Addison's disease, pancreatitis, skin/ear/eye infections, etc.). I also can work with deaf animals (I have two of my own), blind animals, elderly animals that need walking assistance, timid animals, stubborn animals, young animals that are still training, and just plain wild animals (hey, it can be in their nature!). I am also very flexible in both time and payments and I am incredibly responsive/receptive. Please, don't be afraid to be too specific about what your expectations are for your animal(s). Again, they are family. They deserve to receive the utmost love and care that can be afforded to them, no matter who their caregiver may be.

We chose Harlie to watch our Golden Retriever and two cats over a holiday weekend. From the start Harlie was great to work with. She immediately bonded with our pets and communicated clearly and regularly. She sent regular updates and photos throughout the weekend and made sure our pets were happy and cared for. Not only was she an excellent companion to the animals, she was a great house guest - very clean and tidy, received packages, and even cleaned the pet dishes. I can not recommend Harlie enough!!

We were so happy to have found Harlie . She dogsat in our home for us. She is extremely professional, communicative, friendly and easy to work with. She will send photos and updates regularly and we really felt that our dog and house were in great hands. Now we know we can go away again and Harlie will be there for us!

We were on vacation in Florida and booked Harlie to watch our pup while we enjoyed a day at Disney. Simply put, Harlie is AMAZING! It can be nerve-wracking leaving your dog with someone you have never met, but Harlie put me at ease the moment I began emailing with her and especially after meeting her! She was prompt, thorough and made sure to send lots of pictures and videos during the day to give us peace of mind. Our dog LOVED her - so much so he was looking around the house for her after she left. We will absolutely hire Harlie again next time we go to FL!

Information Harlie F. would like to know about your pet

Any existing conditions the dog may have are incredibly important to know. They are not a deterrent to taking on your animal, I promise. Although I am very perceptive to an animal's condition and can react as needed, having a heads up is key to making sure you, your pet(s), and I can find the best possible method for care. Likewise, please provide a contact to your preferred vet should any emergency occur. Also, if your pet is picky in any way about the way their food is prepared, what time they go on walks, how they like to play, or how they like to interact with humans or other animals, don't hesitate to include that information as well.

A typical day

For walks, I can go on your normal, daily routes to maintain a level of consistency and calm for your animal or I can take them to a park and get both of our daily exercises in via ball throwing, running, digging (more for the dog than me), and all the other fun stuff that comes with a big outing. During the stay, you can expect your pet to receive a reasonable amount of cuddles (if that is within their comfort zone), multiple opportunities for tug-of-war, perhaps learn a new trick or two, and never feel unsafe or insecure in their own environment.
