Pet care experience

Animal obsessed pet owner

I have loved animals since a very young age. I have been blessed to have been the fur mom to cats, hamsters, rabbits and I am now a devoted mom to Pablo, my 3 year old chihuahua mix. Having the opportunity to help look after your precious fur babies would be an absolute honor. My promise is to treat them with the same love, care and respect that I give to my own.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

My philosophy with my own pets is to meet them where they are and respect their boundaries. If they do not like to be picked up or held, I happily respect their wishes. However I am also able to say “no” to cheeky behaviour :) I am happy to accommodate any special requirements such as medicines and special play times.

I am delighted to provide this reference for Kathy, whom I have known for nearly ten years. During that time, I have had the opportunity to see firsthand the exceptional care, dedication, and love Kathy gives to her pets. Over the years, she has cared for a variety of animals, including two rabbits, a cat, and her current dog, Pablo. Regardless of the species, Kathy approaches every pet with the same level of attentiveness, compassion, and commitment to their well-being. One of the qualities that stands out most is how engaged she is with the animals in her care. Kathy is highly observant and quickly notices even the smallest changes in behavior, health, or mood. When concerns arise, she responds promptly and thoughtfully, always ensuring her pets receive the care and attention they need. Their health, happiness, and comfort are clearly her top priorities. What I admire most is the genuine love and respect Kathy has for animals. Caring for them is not simply a responsibility to her. It is something she approaches with kindness, patience, and wholehearted dedication. Anyone who entrusts their pet to Kathy can be confident that they will be treated with the same care, affection, and attention that she gives her own beloved pets. As the owner of two dogs myself, I would trust Kathy implicitly with their care. In fact, knowing Kathy as I do, I would have complete peace of mind leaving my dogs in her hands, confident that they would be cared for as if they were her own. I recommend Kathy without reservation for any pet-sitting role. She is trustworthy, compassionate, responsible, and truly devoted to animal care. I am confident that any pet owner would be fortunate to have her looking after their animals.

I have watched Kathy take wonderful care of her pets over the years including a miniature hamster, rabbits, a cat and a dog. She feeds them the best food available, maintains their litter boxes/habitats impeccably, provides for excellent proactive veterinary care and always makes time for play and loving snuggles. Her compassion and concern for all animals is amazing and heartfelt.
