Pet care experience
Caring for your pets is my full time job. I started doing this long before Rover was available so I have extensive long term client referrals that won’t show up on this app as I cared for them before this app came out. . .Your family member, Dog, Cat & Bird, Puppy to Senior or Special Needs, I care about their happiness, comfort, health (emotional, physical) & overall well being).I look forward to meeting you and getting to know you & your fur baby. My first pet sit was when I was 12 yrs old and was for a week for a neighbor. I did some babysitting but always preferred pet sitting. I have cared for many different pets as a result of referrals over the years. Pet parents are my best source for meeting and caring for their furry friends 😊 The way you want your pet’s needs, well- being and happiness cared for are what I will do. If you are working on any training with them, I will continue with that, just as you are currently doing. January 2024 & I am thrilled with the how training of my one of my newest clients has been going the last 4 months. He is going to be a big boy when he finally grows into his paws 😂. I do love my older dogs and cats so much, and I have primarily the adult to senior dog & cat owners request me as it is absolutely essential that they have a sitter that is going to give them that extra TLC. Many have hip or knee issues, have oral and/or injections required. Food portions and feeding instructions must be followed carefully and of course their out put needs to be watched. I make sure their parents are notified for my entire stay and get photos so the pet’s family can enjoy their vacations. Parents that travel for work on a regular basis, please contact me for a phone consult to discuss different rates.

We left our 5 month old puppy, Misty, with Lisa for a week. Lisa was absolutely wonderful! Misty had a great time and we received lots of updates with pictures. Lisa also supported our training efforts. Before Misty's stay, we talked about some of the training we were working on and she made efforts each day during her stay to work with Misty on the things we had talked about. We couldn't be happier with how Misty's first time away from us went.
Lisa is fantastic! She watched our two dogs over two nights. They are anxious and escape artists, so we were very nervous about leaving them for the weekend. Lisa was very understanding and carefully followed their care instructions. The girls loved her! Lisa sent tons of pictures and updates throughout the stay. We will definitely be booking with Lisa for future trips!
Lisa is fantastic. She goes above and beyond to take care of our little babies. It’s great to know we have someone to care for our pups like we would whenever we leave town. Highly recommended!
As pet parents that have had less than stellar results with kennels, we were very hopeful for a good dog sitting experience and Lisa delivered. She took great care of our two dogs, one of which requires anxiety medication and daily medicine. She managed all of this perfectly and our dogs returned to us healthy, happy, and well adjusted. We got routine updates which really put us at ease and our dogs were very happy and cared for. We would recommend Lisa very highly.

I am more than happy to take your dog(s) for walks. I can help if they are not yet comfortable on a lead/harness or you want obedience training assistance or some other behavioral therapy (I.e. please stop chewing furniture, shoes, etc. or some other similar things you want me to assist with. Let me know if they know particular commands (requests) you want them to respond to, or if you would like me to help with any behavioral therapy. I find keeping their routines the same as when you are home is comforting for them. Always take them out first thing in the morning and right before bed. Frequency of walks can be very often. My time is their time. I do care for seniors & those with special needs. Medications, diapers, stroller walks as well as other needs they may have. I am very sensitive to rescues or those that have had some kind of trauma and discuss those issues with the parents as they know what is best for their pets. I keep a very peaceful and calm home for these special fur babies. I am happy to housesit your pet in your home. I have had a thorough background check including fingerprints and am bonded.

Information Lisa B. would like to know about your pet
Let me know your friend’s likes and dislikes. What medications, special dietary needs and schedule? Are they doing rehab or is your friend potty training or other training needed, if so, what is it? Let me know if you have a pup in training and what stage we are at or if you have a senior or special needs pet, are their hip or other issues including diapers or stairs issues I should be aware of? How do they get along with other people or animals? Do you want them to have socialization or do you prefer they don’t interact with other animals. Do they like to be brushed or do you prefer I not do that? I like to know as much as you can share so we have as comfortable and wonderful visit as possible.
A typical day
We can go to the park to walk and play. We play with favorite toys. Obviously, I adjust playtime to your pet’s physical abilities, as I care for puppies through senior pets and those with disabilities.

This is my full time occupation and joy. I do not mix pets from different families. I have always had a dog and had a cat twice. When my last boy passed with cancer at 17, I have not been able to bring myself to adopt another one. So, I love and enjoy taking care of other pets that I know are loved and well cared for. I just can’t go through another heartbreak of a longtime companion passing like my good boy did. Not yet. So your pet(s) will be my only focus while I am with them. I NEVER mix pets! One family’s pets at a time.
