Information Holly H. would like to know about your pet

I currently do not own any pets as stated above but know that I put my entire heart into caring for your furry family members.

A typical day

I love going to long walks with the dogs I typically watch if it is something they enjoy doing. I once went on an hour long walk with a pup just to try and exhaust them. If okayed by the pet parents I enjoy taking them to the beach or dog park as well. Sometimes I like to brush dogs and if the dog gets dirty from our time out I will bath them if absolutely necessary. However I do not provide grooming services. For cats I try to provide enrichment and play time. This varies depending on the cat but many cats love playtime. Laser pointers, feather toys, and cat nip are great ways to entertain a cat. I allow cats to warm up to me at their own pace and will not try to force them into playing. And of corse lots and lots of cuddles

Just a small town girl

Pet care experience

**UPDATE: I now have a full time job. The hours are inconsistent but I am away for up to 8 hours a day. Im happy to continue providing my services.** I grew up in a small town on the central coast on my family's ranch. I've owned and taken care of a variety of different animals and dreamed of having an animal sanctuary as a little girl. From taking care of barn cats, assisting with dog training, and competing in competitions with my horse, I am no stranger to creatures big and small. At 5 years old, my first family dogs were two Old English Mastiffs. Full grown our female was 195 pounds and our male was 210 pounds. At one point my family had 6 cats, 3 indoor cats and 3 feral barn cats which I've helped with socializing. Currently, I do not own any animals. I miss having animals in my life and will provide the love a care your furry family member needs.

Holly was great!! My cat requires twice daily medication and right before my trip decided that he wasn’t going to eat it in a treat anymore…If you’re ever had to medicate a cat that doesn’t want medication, you know it’s no easy task! Holly was amazing with troubleshooting and trying to make it a positive experience for him. She left our house even better than we left it. I would highly recommend!

Holly was responsive, attentive, and personable. I felt comfortable leaving my pets care in her hands. She kept my pups well-being at the forefront of the walk and was able to navigate problems easily. I would highly recommend her to anyone for their pets!

Holly is amazing! She’s so sweet and kind to my fur babies, especially my shy cat. She got them to open up to her instantly so they were immediately comfortable with her! She sends so many cute photos so no need to worry about your pets while you are away!! She has great communication and always responds fast when you message her! 10/10 would recommend and book her again!
