Loving Cat & Dog Care 7 Days a Week

I’ve cared for cats and dogs for over 15 years and truly love every personality, different breeds , and sizes- from playful puppies to shy senior cats and dogs. As a self‑employed sitter with a flexible schedule, I’m available seven days a week for walks, drop‑ins, and overnight care.My calm, pet‑free home is ideal for cat boarding, offering cozy resting spots and a clean, quiet environment. I follow feeding schedules, litter preferences, and medication instructions closely. For dogs, I provide reliable walks, check‑ins, and overnight stays in your home, keeping their routine consistent and stress‑free. I’m gentle with anxious pets, patient with seniors, and always send photo updates so you can relax knowing your furry family is safe, loved, and comfortable.

Marae did a wonderful job taking care of ghostie! She is very attentive to him and is extremely detail oriented. She has a big heart and I can tell she really cares for the pets she takes care of! I can’t thank her enough.

We trust Marae completely with our pets. She overnight‑sat our sweet elderly dog Darla numerous times and cared for her with so much love! She kept Darla on her routine and made sure she received her medications on time. She also boarded our Siamese cat Max many times, and Max is usually very high maintenance! BUT he absolutely adored Marae and was so relaxed in her home. It truly felt like a vacation for him. Marae treats every animal like her own, follows instructions carefully, sends thoughtful updates, and respects your home and privacy. She is an incredible human being and an even better pet caregiver.

Schedule

I’m currently self‑employed and make my own schedule, which means I’m extremely flexible and available seven days a week. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home often, able to adjust my day around visits, walks, and overnight stays, and I prioritize keeping pets on their normal schedule. Whether you need early mornings, evenings, weekends, or last‑minute support, I’m able to accommodate a wide range of timing needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets with a calm, gentle, and detail‑oriented approach. In your home, I follow your routines exactly! Feeding schedules, potty breaks, litter care, walks, medication instructions, and any special notes you provide. I keep your home tidy, respect your space, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. In my home, I offer a quiet, pet‑free environment that is especially ideal for cats. I have cozy resting spots, safe areas for exploration, and a clean setup ready for boarding. Most owners bring their cat’s preferred litter box, litter, food, and carrier, but I also keep a clean backup litter box and extra litter available if needed. I move slowly with shy or anxious pets, give them space to warm up, and always prioritize their comfort. I send consistent photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing and feel confident they’re in good hands.
