Pet care experience
Your Pet, My Passion
(Fully vaccinated) For the last 9 years I’ve had the opportunity to care for a variety of animals in Louisiana, Texas and now in Colorado. From morning walks to administering medications to overnight care to daycare adventures. My love for the feline familia goes as far back as I can remember. From having farm cats to my first indoor feline & enduring allergy shots so I can accept kitty kisses without the hives, lol. I've nurtured countless kitties through floods, fires, and many natural disasters via rescue agencies and daycare/foster organizations. The cat distribution system has certainly blessed my home and those around me over and over again. My “cat care rate” consists of overnight hours only (approximately 12 hrs). If you’d prefer an aditional mid day visit included in the stay, the rate is my “house sitting rate”. The pricing on this platform can be tricky and confusing when booking multiple days/pets. Each pet in the home must be included in your profile/sitting request and sittings will be priced per pet. See services/pricing provided in my profile. Please feel free to reach out if you have questions about pricing as I am more than willing to work with your budget via discounts. Dog walks are considered “drop-in visits” & priced the same. Use Promo Code: HOLLYB65783 for a $20 discount on your first booking with me! *last minute bookings (72hrs or less) are accepted for established clients ONLY along with an additional $80 fee. Caring for your pet in your home is always ideal for your pet. Whatever needs they have at home can be met easily with instructions from you, followed by me. Taking care of your beloved pets fills a gap in my days when routines can become monotonous and boring. Pet sitting is a part time role but a very important role in remaining humble in this journey called life. Whatever routines and play spaces your pets are accustomed to is what I would like to continue for them while you’re away. Most often your pets are more comfortable in their familiar space and routines. With the recent vehicle crimes in the Denver metro area, and my vehicle being a victim to these crimes, I are only able to accept overnight assignments that offer secured parking i.e. garage or secured parking. Street parking requests will be respectfully declined. My main source of income is driving hence my need to keep my vehicle secured at all times.

Safety, trust & environment
I prefer to continue your pet's daily routines as closely as possible. From playing in their yard to walks around your neighborhood. I prefer to NOT take your pets to a public dog park as there are too many variables with other people's pets and other drivers for an unsavory event to happen on our watch. Your pet may be the best pet but there is always a possibility of an unfriendly pet being there at the same time or distracted driver along the way. Please keep in mind, I am in no way a pet/dog trainer, simply a caretaker. If your pet is aggressive towards other pets/humans/vehicles I will accept your booking on a case by case basis depending on how our initial meet & greet goes. Snow days: For drop in visits only, a snow day fee ($10) may be added to each drop in visit depending on the severity of weather conditions.
Ratings and reviews
Holly saved us when the cat boarding situation I had lined up fell through at the last minute. Super professional and knowledgeable about cats. My cat can be a bit timid with strangers but every day I got a video of her playing with Holly and I couldn’t be happier.
Holly is the kind of person who puts you at ease immediately- you know your pets will be loved & cared for while you’re away. We will be using her again and again.
Holly is absolutely amazing with our separation anxiety prone dachshund.
Holly always goes above and beyond for our cats- she opens and closes window shades so they can enjoy the view, turns on their toys, cleans their feeders, etc. We trust her completely and the cats adore her!
What an amazing human as well as pet sitter! Holly never ever lets our babies down. They love her and she has even made friends with the most skittish of our cats. She'll love on your babies and you get all the funny pics and videos. I don't think they missed us at all.
Holly is wonderful and reliable. We are always happy to work with her.

Schedule
My days usually begin around 10am and end around 9pm. I’m very aware that most dogs usually wake up much earlier than I do and am more than willing to follow their lead for overnight sittings, within reason. Overnight/house sittings will include 12hrs in the evening (approximately 9pm-9am) +1 mid day visit. I do NOT offer constant care. For drop-in visits, my day begins at 10am. As a full time driver, my driving time usually begins around 11am through 6pm. I do prefer to take a break in the middle of my driving shifts which is usually the perfect time for your pets to get a break/snack/attention/walk.

- During our first meet and greet we can go over any special needs or routines your pet needs and is accustomed to. Any triggers or concerns, emergency/evacuation plans, can be addressed then as well. Detailed instructions from you will be expected either in the platform chat prior to or written and accessible upon arrival. (house alarm codes, door codes, keys, medication dose & method, feeding, cleaning instructions, wifi network/password for overnights, any scheduled deliveries/repair appointments, plant watering schedule, etc.) It's understood that we live in an age of surveillance, and I do appreciate it for the most part. However, if you have indoor cameras, I and Rover Terms Of Service require that I be made aware of their locations before any sitting begins. I prefer to not be under surveillance while indoors & will only accept bookings with indoor cameras on a case by case basis. Failure to disclose existence & location of cameras during meet & greet will result in immediate termination of booking and any future bookings. See link below for Terms Of Service regarding cameras. https://www.rover.com/blog/community-guidelines/#list-item-rovers-role (Disclose security cameras and other recording devices in or around your home. They are prohibited in private areas, such as bedrooms and bathrooms that you have designated for the use of your pet care provider. You are responsible at all times for the legal and appropriate use of your cameras and recording devices. *under pet parent role)
