Care I’d Want for My Own Pets
I’ve been caring for animals for more than 30 years, from my own family pets to pets belonging to friends and neighbors. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need plenty of attention and playtime to senior dogs who need a little extra patience, care, and a slower pace. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to follow the schedule and care instructions that help your pet feel comfortable and secure. Whether that means walks and playtime, lots of belly rubs, keeping up with a puppy’s routine, or giving an older pet some extra TLC, I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I’d want for my own.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs, and I take the time to learn your pet’s personality, habits, and preferences. Safety is always a priority, so I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, and anything else that could put a curious pet at risk. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would expect someone to show in mine. Most importantly, I want you to feel completely comfortable while you’re away, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention and affection.
Ratings and reviews
Lisa helps out with my cats while I’m out of town. She is a great sitter! I’m always pleased when she sends check-ins and photos. She cares for others’ (including my own) furry family members as if they’re her own. Highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!
Lisa is the very best! I have three senior pets so it can be stressful to leave them, but I feel completely comfortable with them in Lisa’s care. She is incredibly attentive and always makes sure they each get the individual care and attention they need. Lisa is kind, reliable, and trustworthy, and I would absolutely recommend her!
Lisa has watched my three cats on many occasions! She goes above and beyond for them. She is always timely, sends great updates and very communicative. One of our cats is extra shy but loves when Lisa comes over. He even greets her at the door. I highly recommend Lisa for any of your pet sitting needs!

Schedule
I have a flexible schedule that makes it easy to fit pet care into my daily routine. I work part-time in a medical office, typically for 4–6 hours at a time, and also work part-time from home. This gives me plenty of availability throughout the week and the flexibility to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and extra attention when needed. Because I’m not away from home for long workdays, I can be flexible with your pet’s normal routine and make sure they get the care, companionship, and attention they’re used to while you’re away.

- I’d love to know anything that will help me keep your pet happy, comfortable, and safe! Please let me know about their normal routine, personality, favorite activities, feeding schedule, medications, or any special needs. It’s also important for me to know about any behavioral concerns, fears, triggers, escape tendencies, or how they typically react to other animals and people. The more I know about your pet ahead of time, the better I can make their time with me feel comfortable and familiar.
