I am home full time dedicating my life to my animals. We typically head out for our long walk or hike in the morning after which everyone is having their meal. The exercise in the morning ensures a calm and happy pack for the rest of the day.

Information Judith W. would like to know about your pet

it’s important that you let me know if your pet has any special needs, diet requirements, any quirks or if they’re not 100% potty trained or have accidents due to medical issues or age. All this is not a problem, I’ll just need to know ahead of times Also, very important, please let me know if your dog jumps fences, likes to sneak out, does not listen and / or is not off leash trained. Important for you to know is that we have cats in the house and they don’t appreciate getting chased or attacked, so if your dog might do that, then we might not be the best fit, unless your dog is ok to be in a crate at certain times.

A typical day

We usually take our big walk / hike in the morning to get the energy out. The rest of the day we chill in the house or yard and go on smaller walks around the neighborhood.

Pet care experience

About Me: Animals are my life’s work. My background is unique: I spent 20 years as a commercial airline pilot, a career built on extreme reliability, safety protocols, and being dependable under pressure. I bring that same disciplined "cool head" to pet sitting. Whether I’m managing a pack on a mountain trail, caring for a senior dog, or tending to a barn, your animals’ safety and your peace of mind are my priorities.R Rehab, Healing & Holistic Expertise: For over 15 years, I have specialized in rehabbing dogs with behavioral challenges. My approach is a blend of structured positive reinforcement and intuitive energy work: Behavioral Rehab: I have extensive experience with "difficult" cases, rescues, and high-needs temperaments. Energy Work & Reiki: I am trained in Animal Reiki and Emotion Code. This allows me to help animals release trapped emotions and settle into a calm, balanced state—perfect for anxious travelers or rescues with a traumatic past. All Species, All Breeds – No Discrimination I welcome all animals regardless of breed, size, or status. I am comfortable with "power breeds," giant breeds, and intact dogs, provided they are social and well-mannered and trained. The "Adventure" Standard: For my canine guests, we go on at least one long hike or intensive walk daily, often including outings to the lake and local trails. Farm & Livestock Care: Having run a farm animal rescue, I am experienced with horses, goats, sheep, cows, pigs, and poultry. I am happy to provide farm-sitting services for those who need a caregiver who truly understands livestock. Why My Experience Matters From the cockpit to the farm, I’ve spent my life being the person people count on. Whether your animal needs a high-energy mountain guide, a calm healing presence, or a knowledgeable farm hand, I have the experience and the heart to provide it. Feel free to ask me for a multi-animal discount!

Judith was a great sitter! She was flexible and kind, sent us plenty of photos, spent a lot of time with our kitty, and gave us updates on his mood and temperament. I’d book her again.
