Pet care experience

Animal lover w/ flexible schedule!

When I was a baby, our family cat, Gretchen gave birth to a litter of kittens in my crib...while I was in it! I like to think that sealed my fate as an animal lover and a human that is loved by animals. Growing up, dogs and cats were not just pets but members of our family. As an adult, I've cared for the pets of my friends and family for many years and now have two sweet cats who were born in our back yard to a feral mother. Their names are Peanut and Butter and I truly don't know what my life would be without them! <3 Whether your pet needs twice daily walks, special care during meal times, a bath, or extra snuggles - I'm happy to attend to any and all of their needs. I'm reliable, organized, and a great communicator. I will care for your pets like they are my own and, at the end of the day, isn't that what any pet parent wants in a pet sitter?

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I am an independent contractor and freelancer who frequently works from home, which means I can work from anywhere with a reliable internet connection. While I'm working, my time is also incredibly flexible and I can care for your pet during my work day if need be.

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

Is there anything worse than coming home from a trip and worrying that your pet has missed you so much that they chewed up a pair of shoes or scratched the couch to pieces? Or that the house will be a wreck and you'll have to spend hours cleaning after a long day? If I'm visiting or staying in your home to take care of your pet, you can rest assured that they will be happy and healthy and that I will take the utmost care of your home as well!

Pets

A typical day

I'm happy to walk your dog around his or her favorite neighborhoods. If there's a dog park your pup loves to go to or a toy/game they enjoy I'm happy to accommodate!

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors I should be aware of. I'd also appreciate knowing how they react to children and other animals (in case we encounter them on a walk) so that I can make sure all parties are happy and healthy during my time with them. If they like to be pet a certain way or love a particular brand of treat, that's always good to know as well. :)
