Pet care experience

Loving Sitter | Lifelong Pet Mom

I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals has always been a natural and important part of my life. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets belonging to friends, family, and neighbors, including overnight stays and extended pet-sitting arrangements. I’ve also had the opportunity to foster animals — including young kittens, which has given me experience caring for pets with different personalities, needs, and routines. I understand that leaving your pets with someone else can be stressful, which is why I treat every animal in my care like they’re part of my own family. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and all the little things that help pets feel safe and comfortable in their normal routine. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pet wants to spend the day playing, going for walks, getting lots of attention, or simply curling up somewhere cozy, I’m happy to meet them where they are. My goal is simple: to give your pets the same love, patience, attention, and care I would want someone to give mine.

Schedule

I homeschool my children, so I’m home with them throughout the day and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to provide pets with plenty of companionship, attention, and supervision rather than leaving them alone for long periods of time. I’m available for regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and lots of cuddles throughout the day. I’m also happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and schedule so they can feel comfortable and at home while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have lifelong experience with both cats and dogs and understand how important it is to respect each pet’s personality, boundaries, and routine. I currently have two very friendly, social cats and a friendly dog who are accustomed to being around other animals. I’m happy to discuss introductions and make sure every pet is comfortable before allowing interaction. Our home does not have a private fenced yard, but our complex has a small dog park, and we also take plenty of walks for exercise, fresh air, and enrichment. I’m happy to keep your pet’s normal exercise routine while they’re in my care. Because I homeschool my children and am home most of the day, pets staying with us will have someone around to keep an eye on them, give them attention, and make sure they’re safe and comfortable. I want every pet in my care to feel like a welcomed member of the family—not a guest being left in a strange place.
