Loving Care for your Fur Baby

I am a certified veterinary assistant with experience caring for animals in veterinary hospitals, shelters, and private pet-sitting settings. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including pets with mobility or dietary needs, and I have experience administering medications. My goal is to provide the same attentive, compassionate care I’d want for my own pets while keeping owners informed and giving them peace of mind while they’re away.

We have really loved having Holly take care of our little Murphy. She was kind to me when I was a scared, new puppy-mom. She was always reliable, communicative, and took excellent care of Murph. We know he loves her and we’re all sad to see her leave CO. She always went above and beyond for his care & to help us. I highly recommend her for your pets’ care.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my priority is maintaining a safe, low-stress environment while following their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special care requests to help your pet feel comfortable while you’re away. For pets staying in my home, I have a large backyard with plenty of room to play, as well as a long, fenced-in deck where dogs can safely enjoy fresh air and sunshine under supervision. My home is also equipped with handicap ramps to better accommodate senior pets or those with mobility challenges. Indoor cats can enjoy plenty of natural sunlight from the many windows throughout my home, creating cozy spots to relax and watch the outdoors.

Pets

A typical day

Every pet has a different idea of fun, so I tailor activities to their age, energy level, and personality. Whether it’s neighborhood walks, exploring nearby trails, playing fetch in the yard, interactive toys, enrichment games, or simply relaxing together and enjoying plenty of attention, I’ll make sure your pet stays happy, active, and engaged. If your dog enjoys swimming, I also have access to a small pond on the property that can be enjoyed with owner approval and close supervision.

Every pet is unique, so please let me know about any dietary or mobility restrictions, medication needs, or behavioral concerns. Whether your pet has sensitivities to certain people, animals, noises, objects, or situations, the more I know about their routine and preferences, the better I can provide safe, personalized care.
