Experienced & trustworthy neighbor

Pet care experience

I’ve had pets since childhood to include dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles and have been pet sitting for friends and neighbors for many years. While I am most familiar with dogs and cats, I have experience with a variety of household pets. I cared for pets that need special attention (medications, etc). I am looking to make some flexible income while I go back to school and start a family. I have a toddler, so I’m hesitant to do boarding or house sitting, but am open to discussing options if you’re in a pinch.

Holly has been a great sitter, we are SO happy we found her! She arrived as expected and kept us up to date on what was going on everyday. We will definitely call her again.

Holly was the absolute best. She took amazing care of my pets and my house. She was reliable, communicated throughout the whole stay and I came home to happy pets and my house in order. I would recommend her to everyone!!

Holly was great! She spent a good amount of time playing with our kitties, made sure they had food and water and a clean litter box, and really took care of them! She was prompt, too!

Information Holly W. would like to know about your pet

If I care for your pup or other pet, I’d like to know about any specific diets, medications, or allergies they have. Knowing any negative behaviors like frequent barking, aggression towards strangers or other pets, or chewing what they shouldn’t is a must so I can prepare and adjust for it. I also like to know what your fur baby’s typical behavior is like so I can watch for signs of distress or illness. Lastly, what does your little guy/ gal like for play time?

A typical day

I love to hike, run, and go to dog parks with dogs. Dog parks are always an option if your fur baby likes other pets. I know cats don’t always like strangers, but I usually try to play or pet if they are willing. Litter care willing. I like to pet and play with pups and am open to assist in small amounts of training (sit, stay, etc). I’m open to bathing and brushing pets if they don’t hate bath time.
