Kind and caring animal lover!
Pet care experience
I have had cats and dogs ever since I can remember! I'm very gentle and don't force attention on any furry friends. I prefer to let them accept me and come to me on their terms. I have never abused my furry family members and have adopted many older and abused animals. I volunteered at the ARL for 7 years so I am familiar with the handling of dogs and cats. I have also owned small animals such as hamsters, gerbils, rats and guinea pigs.
Reviews
Lisa was INCREDIBLE! I left my cat, Marley, with her for three weeks while I was out of the country. As a helicopter pet mom, I felt so comfortable knowing Marley was in Lisa’s care. She sent me photos regularly and Marley looked so happy in all of them. I genuinely felt that she was giving him the same amount of love he gets when he’s at home. So much so I was worried he wouldn’t be ready to come home when I picked him up! I cannot say enough good things about Lisa.
Thanks for the compassionate, flexible, and patient care you gave our old sweet dog! We so appreciate it. 🙂
Has done a wonderful job with walking our dog!
I highly recommend Lisa!!! Lisa was absolutely wonderful with our dog. We had a meet and greet in person - Lisa was incredibly kind and loved her energy. She made my dog feel instantly comfortable. While we were on vacation, Lisa sent me multiple pictures and updates everyday for a week while we were gone. I will absolutely use Lisa again!!!

A typical day
I love to have plenty of toys to stimulate and engage dogs. I like to play with them in my fenced back yard, play tug of war and fetch and enjoy their joy and energy. I also have many cat toys and love to play with and cuddle them!

Availability
I work remote from home and can be flexible somewhat during the week days. On the weekends I would prioritize animal care for any clients who choose to have me provide care for their pets.
