12 plus years of animal care!

Pet care experience

Are you in search of a caring and knowledgeable pet sitter? Look no further! Greetings, I'm Holly, and with over 12 years of professional pet care experience, I am your trusted companion for your beloved furry friends. From a young age, my heart has always been drawn to animals, and my journey has been a fulfilling one. My passion for pet care led me to become a Nationally Certified Animal Control Officer, where I supervised an animal shelter, managed adoptions, and ensured the well-being of our four-legged companions. Additionally, I've devoted over a decade to volunteering with various animal rescue organizations and shelters, even opening my home as a foster parent. In my commitment to animal welfare, I've also responded to the call of duty alongside esteemed organizations such as the Humane Society of the United States, ASPCA, and Handsome Dan's Rescue, assisting victims of dog fighting cases. Teaming up with my partner Chris, who shares the same love for pets, we boast a wealth of experience handling diverse breeds, temperaments, and sizes – no breed restrictions in sight! While we have two adored dogs of our own, rest assured that we can seamlessly separate them from your precious pooch. Your furry friend will be treated to their own dedicated guest room, complete with a comfy bed and a crate for their personal preference. My current work schedule spans Monday to Friday, yet I have the flexibility to return home, if necessary, given my ten-minute proximity. Evenings and weekends find me readily available, ensuring that your pet's needs are met throughout their stay. Our secure and fenced yard, constructed with vinyl, offers not one but two distinct sections. This layout accommodates the requirements of multiple dogs, allowing for individualized attention as needed. Though our own dogs remain separate, I'm always thrilled to meet you and your pet before their stay. While we don't arrange meet and greets with our own dogs, we are more than willing to meet you and your dog(s) prior to their stay! Choose me as your dedicated pet sitter, and rest assured that your cherished companion will receive exceptional care, affection, and a home away from home. Contact me today for a tailored pet care experience that exceeds expectations!

5 STARS!!! Holly was fantastic! She has a lot of experience working with dogs and she takes her responsibilities seriously. She spent a lot of time each day with Rosie playing outside or doing her food puzzles. I received photos showing our happy dog! I absolutely will be using Holly’s services again.

So appreciative of Holly going above and beyond treating Kelso as her own! She did all she could to make him comfortable and create a fun environment. Frequent communication and photos really helped let us know how he was doing each day.

Holly and Chris were wonderful hosts for our dog! I had so much comfort knowing he was safe and settled at their place. We got plenty of photos and updates throughout the weekend. This will be our go-to sitter for the future!!
