I've been petsitting in Seattle and the surrounding area for over 30 years, making it my full-time occupation at the end of 2021. As you might imagine, these thirty-plus years have given me a lot of experience with all kinds of pets and all manner of situations. Dogs, cats, birds, horses, reptiles, fish, turtles - I might be forgetting a species or two! - are in my repertoire, and I am well versed in basic daily care as well as those who need a little extra, whether that's because they're very young, very elderly, or need medications. My service specialty is overnight/"move-in" housesitting, basing out of your home for the length of my stay, keeping your pets relaxed and reassured by maintaining their routines in their own space, and assuring your home is secure in your absence! I'll do my best to maintain whatever schedule your pets have. :-) I am available for basic overnights (dinner through breakfast, with a walk), all the way up to constant (24-hr) care (additional rates apply.) My goal is to provide seamless care for your beasties, ensuring I maintain the same loving care - routines, meals, exercise, snuggles - that you would if you were home, reducing the stress of your absence to the best of my ability.
