I work very part‑time as an interior horticulturist and create my own hours, so I can be home with your pets as much as they need. I’m a homebody and pet‑sit because I truly love spending time with animals, so I’m typically with your pet about 90% of the time. I rarely leave them alone for more than 3 hours and make sure they receive plenty of attentive, loving care.

I treat every home as if it were my own — with care, love, and respect. I’m naturally very tidy and organized, and I always aim to leave your home cleaner than I found it. As an interior horticulturist, I’m also happy to care for your indoor plants while you’re away

Attentive, Heartfelt Pet Care

Pet care experience

Animals have been part of my life for over 20 years. I’ve cared for cats, dogs, birds, and smaller animals, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality. I’m active and love taking dogs on long, enriching walks and play sessions. I also understand that pets can feel like children, best friends, and even soulmates. I treat every animal with that level of love and respect, and I’d be honored to care for your fur family as if they were my own.

Lisa is a true animal lover that my cats adored. She stayed at my home for 5 days and watched Taz and Luca. This was the first time being away since I adopted my new cat Luca and everything went perfectly. Lisa kept me informed with text and photos. Taz was a love bug and adored her. Luca was happy zooming around. I would highly recommend Lisa for either drop in or extended petsitting!

Lisa took care of our dog for over a week while we were out of town. She was responsible, communicative and clearly took great care of her. She spent time with her by taking her on walks, playing with her in the backyard and giving her tummy rubs. I would highly recommend Lisa as a pet caregiver!

Lisa has been our go to cat sitter for the past several years - she is reliable, tidy, and extremely loving toward our sweet cat. Instead of feeling sad to leave my cat while I'm out of town, I feel excited that she gets to have her special Lisa time! I cannot recommend her more highly!

Lisa is a true animal lover and took great care of my cat while I was away for a week. My cat can by shy but Lisa got him to relax within a few hours and they were pals for the week. She sent me photos of her playing with him on the floor and on my bed, his favorite place to get attention. It was great for me to come home to a perfect house with a calm kitty to greet me! I highly recommend Lisa for pet care.
