I am a life-long, doting pet owner who loves animals. My goal is to offer the best at-home, holistic pet care possible for cats, dogs, and other small animals, while giving pet owners peace of mind while they are away. As a pet owner myself, I know the ability to enjoy a well-earned vacation is heavily dependent on being able to trust a caretaker with your fur babies and your home. I am a university graduate who is bonded and insured with Pet Sitters Associates, and have done an extensive background check on myself, with reputable background reporting company B&B Reporting and with Rover.com, which you can see during meet & greets. I am also pet first aid certified. I also have solid science background and experience in the food & supplement industries, and am very knowledgeable about holistic pet care. From meals and supplements to the best natural litter, flea and tick control, and personal care products, I have it covered! I also care deeply about animal welfare and have raised funds for animals affected by the Australian wildfires and Lebanon blast through my print-on-demand t-shirts and other products. My experience with animals include being a life-long pet owned human and being a foster mommy. In fact, my cat Mila was once one of my foster kitties along with two of her siblings. How am I different? * Great Communication - My clients from my other business have noted that one of the best things they like about working with me is that I have great communication skills and keep them up to date on important matters. I will provide updates with a frequency that is the most comfortable for you, whether that is a few times per week or once per day. * Above & Beyond - I understand that you want your return home to be drama and stress free. That is why I leave your home better than how I found it. Not only will I pick up after myself and your pets, I will leave the your kitchen or primary care area cleaner that how you left it. That means I will clean up any dishes in the sink and leave surfaces and floors looking extra polished. * Holistic Knowledge - Because of my love of pets and experience in the food and supplement industries as an R&D scientist, I have exceptional knowledge of the best supplements, natural flea and tick control, and other effective natural products. I also use vet formulated aromatherapy for pets that need extra comfort while their human is away. * Special Gifts - I leave special gifts for my clients at the end of multi-day trips. I hope to create a relaxing, safe atmosphere for both pets and their people. I currently accept assignments in clients' homes, such as house visits, dog walking, and overnight stays. I hope to offer bathing and grooming services in the future.
