Pet care experience

Animal Enthusiast Since 1998

Whether it's a walk, or a drop-in visit, your pet's happiness, health, and safety are my top priorities. I'm the person who stops to say "hi" to every dog I see on the street! I treat every animal I meet as if they were my own- with all the love, care, and respect they deserve. <3 I have experience administering oral medication and walking reactive dogs. Every walk or visit I send includes pictures and detailed updates! I value clear and direct communication with my clients. I want you and your animals to feel safe and secure with me and my services. I love all animals and have experience caring for small animals such as rabbits, rats, hedgehogs, turtles, hamsters, and fish as well as cats and dogs! I currently have a senior free roam rabbit named Inlé.

Safety, trust & environment

I try to anticipate what situations could be stressful and mitigate the harm that could be caused. If I know there’s going to be loud noises outside and a pet is sensitive to noise, I keep the windows shut and play music as a distraction. If I’m walking a dog who is reactive, I keep alert to the surroundings and will cross to the other side of the road.

Booked Lacey for my mom and this is her review: I didn’t know what to expect with Roger and Lacey, but my husband was gone and I needed help. The moment she saw Buddy, she immediately made a great connection

Lacey was super responsive which was nice when booking, but she also genuinely cared about making sure my cat was getting enough love & attention while I was gone, which was awesome to know. Would defs have her cat-sit again!

She was great! Our dog had more attention with a one on one dog sitter at our house. He probably wishes we would stay away longer.

She is phenomenal with my dog Luna. Luna is probably one of the most insanely energetic dogs that is out there. Lacey works with her so well, and not only gives her enough exercise and attention, but also trains her so well. She was the one who taught Luna how to sit! She's taught Luna everything from sit, to lay, to shake, to high-five. When I have to work or am stuck in school, I never have any worries leaving Luna with Lacey. In addition to her amazing report with Luna, Lacey also understands how to give orally-administered medication, which is something I don't find a lot of people knowing how to do. Luna (and I!) am always excited to see Lacey!

I’ve known Lacey for 5 years and she has always loved and cared for every dog around her. Her puppy, Owen, is always being cuddled and loved on and played with. She takes incredible care of my dogs when I need her to. She’s always been an animal lover and I would absolutely hire her to watch my pets.

I have a detailed check list to make sure I have completed all their necessary care and plan ahead of time for days that I will have to do more time-intensive care like a litter box change. Caring for another’s animals looks very similar, making sure I am thorough and make time to take good care of them!

I like to know what a typical day/walk looks like for the dog, if they use any specific commands or training, etc. When taking a walk, I like to know the dog's level of comfort with other animals to ensure everyone stays safe and happy. If the pets require any medication, I ensure I have the correct dosage prepared. And I love to know if they have any special quirks or favorite places to be pet!
