Highlights
Pet care experience
Communication is key!
I’m a licensed attorney and an animal lover at heart. I grew up surrounded by animals, in a home with a dog and four cats. I frequently care for my neighbor and friends’ pets when they are out of town, and have two cats of my own. I also have 3 years of volunteer experience at a no-kill animal shelter, and am comfortable giving medications and handling any special health or behavioral needs. I have experience caring for dogs that require frequent potty breaks due to age or medical condition; as well as those with Arthritis, recovering injuries, or other mobility concerns. Similarly, I have cared for cats of all ages and temperaments, including those with medical vulnerabilities (seizures, kidney disease, cancer, incontinence issues). I have also worked with former ferals, and am happy to care for those who may be especially shy or anxious around unfamiliar faces and disrupted routines. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust look after your pet. I value reliability and communication, and strive to provide the upmost care. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies!

Safety, trust & environment
I will be sure to communicate with you to ensure your expectations for drop in visits or house sitting are fully met. I’m here for any special care requests. I’ll check in after each drop-in session with plenty of photos of your pet and a rundown on the visit. I typically provide two updates mid-morning and evening each day while house sitting. I always include detailed information about your pet’s activity and behavior, along with lots of photos and videos documenting the day. However, I am happy to provide updates at your preferred frequency. I am always available and responsive during visits should you have any questions or requests.
Ratings and reviews
Hayley was great with our three cats! She sent lots of pictures of them, their food, etc. which we really appreciated. She was very communicative and even took out our trash and recycling. Will definitely request her again in the future!
We would recommend Hayley to anyone! She was professional, attentive, and took care of our pets like her own.
Hayley is the epitome of a great dog sitter. I have 2 difficult pups and from the moment she walked up she went above and beyond to gain their trust. She is very communicative. Sending lots of pics and updating me on when she got there, what the pups did and when she was headed out. Definitely will be using her for drop ins and overnight stays!
Hayley house sat for my pets for 5 days. I have four pets, one being a 5 month old GSD/Malinois puppy and Hayley did wonderfully. I got photo updates every meal time and little tidbits of their day and funny things they’d do. I know they all got one on one time, which I really appreciate as well. She took care of them like they were her own and she really took all of their little quirks/tricks/mealtimes in and followed them accordingly! I have a pretty shy cat that warmed up to Hayley within a day, which is rather impressive! She left our house clean and made sure all of our babies had water. Tina and Kai (our dogs) were tuckered out too (which is amazing). Overall 11/10 and will be rebooking if I go out of town again. All of my animals were rather happy and well taken care of!
Hayley was communicative, attentive, and friendly! I already have her lined up for another trip we are taking, and I know she will take great care of Hermione, because she did a great job! My husband said Hermione might like her more than us!
Hayley is so good with my shy guy Lenny. He tends to take a long time to warm up to new people but he was quickly at ease with Hayley. She is very communicative and seems to go above and beyond. I’m grateful to have a sitter I trust.

Schedule
I work fully remote, so I have plenty of flexibility when caring for your pets. I update my calendar frequently, and am happy to work with your schedule. During housesits, I will make your home my base camp so pets will not be left alone for extended periods.
