Will love yours like my own!

Pet care experience

I have had pets my whole life. I currently have 2 dogs and 3 cats of my own. I am frequently dog sitting for friends and I also foster dogs from time to time in my home for a few local pet rescues. I have a pet friendly home in a quiet neighborhood with nature trails around the neighborhood. I work from home and have a flexible schedule so frequent breaks are no problem. I welcome dogs of all shapes and sizes and am comfortable caring for pets with special needs. I have baby gates set up at the tops of stairs and have no problem administering medications. I know your pet will love it here!

Liz was the perfect sitter for our 9 month old “Big Dog” puppy! He stayed for 10 days, and had such a good time, he barely wanted to come home :) Thank you, Liz and family.

Liz and her family took great care of Sunny. She was very responsive to our last minute request for day care and It was pretty clear that Sunnynhad a blast during her stay.
