Animals are better 💙

Pet care experience

I grew up with animals such as goats, chickens, ducks, cats, dogs, and rabbits. I currently have two cats that I’m obsessed with. I have furbaby sat for multiple furbabies in one household which one of whom who had a heart condition that required medication distribution 2x a day. I also helped ease anxiety ridden fur babies by being present, cuddling, create a song and dance number if they let me and taking a ton of photos. Also have had requests to take of care other pet babies such fishes and Guinea pigs as well. I ensure that all furbabies basic needs are met but also their social-emotional wellbeing. Animals require lots of love as they can have a hard time being out of their element. I have unconditional love to provide while their parents can do what they need with peace, ease, and comfort knowing that their fur babies are safe and cared for in a lovingly environment.

Leila is the most affectionate caring sitter. She has the 2 most cutest furbabies that treat each other like brother and sister. Leila has been around my big dogs and is so sweet and gives the best cuddles and kisses. One of the very best highly recommended.

Safety, trust & environment

I live on the third floor in a one bedroom apartment. My windows are safeguard so no furbaby can escape or be harmed. I have a large living room with no furniture at the moment so there’s plenty of space for play (my cats love the open space to run around with their toys) and sleep. If there’s a specific schedule that needs to be followed (i.e dietary needs, meds, etc) i will need it in writing what that schedule will look like. I usually will wash all animal dishes prior to meals and ensure there’s adequate clean water supply at all times. I will provide walks, playtime, cuddles and medication(if necessary). I have great communication skills and will provide updates and photos upon request. I am near two parks where the dogs can play and walk while feeling safe.

For dogs, I have toys as well as beds/blankets and am close to at least two parks in my community. One park is right across the street from me and another is a block down the street.

I am available for doggy/kitty daycare and boarding in my home from Monday-Saturday (fur babies can be picked up Saturday morning/afternoon). If you need a Sunday accommodations I am willing to work with you. I am available Monday-Saturday for walk. will do my best to be accommodating to the pets needs. I am home at the moment as I have recently lost employment. I have the time and love to provide for fur babies as I given already given my time and care for human children while I was employed with child welfare. *PLEASE NOTE: While rover does not require a meet n greets (although highly recommended by them), I DO REQUIRE a meet n greet. This is to ensure that all of our furbabies get along and are safe. Safety is my number one priority. I am willingly to work with your schedule to ensure the meet n greet happens, however after 2 failed attempts to meet n greet, I will have to respectfully decline further services. Thank you and looking forward to caring and cuddles with your furbabies.
