Pet care experience

Peace of Mind Pet Care

Growing up my house was always full of animals. My dad, a lifelong animal lover, instilled and passed down his love for caring for animals and the joys that come with owning pets. At 15 after years of taking care of my other dog, our several cats, and my dads fish tanks too from time to time, my parents finally let me get "my own" puppy. Raising a dog from six weeks at such a young age did prove to be extremely challenging but it was also very rewarding. Now, years later as a student away from my home full of pets, I am missing all the joys of being a pet parent, and would love to care for your critters!

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets with the same attention and respect I would give my own. Whether I'm in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment tailored to each pet’s needs. I stick to their usual routines as closely as possible. In your home, I’m mindful of your space and preferences, keeping things clean and secure. I’ll keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to get to know what makes yours feel happy and safe.

Margo was great with our dog, housesitting for a week. She was very responsive, sent lots of photos, and took Mitchell and lots of nice walks.

Margo was a fantastic pet sitter!! She took excellent care of our pup and our home, sent photo updates throughout the day, and communicated well. She even left a sweet little note for us to come home to. We will absolutely be booking with her again!

Margo took such amazing care of my cat, Poptart. She was an excellent house sitter and was very respectful of the space. She also sent plenty of updates with pictures and followed my cat’s routine with no troubles. If you’re looking for a caring, communicative sitter, Margo is the one!

Margo watched Bagel for a week, and I know I left him in good hands! She was caring, attentive, and communicative throughout. I'll definitely book her again the next time I need someone to watch Bagel, and I'd recommend her to anyone in need of someone to care for their pet.

Margo has grown up with pets and been around them from the start. At 15 Margo wanted to get a dog. We begrudgingly obliged, and Hyde joined our family as a puppy (male cattle dog mix). He was not an easy guy, but Margo persisted and made a home for Hyde in addition to our other dog and three cats. Margo was responsible for walking Hyde and taking him out for bathroom breaks at night. Hyde stayed in Margo room nights and still does when she comes home from school. Margo is extremely responsible and loving to animals. She has been pet-sitting for friends and family. She is reliable, punctual, and trustworthy. She always allots significant time to care for her charges so that she can spend time keeping them company in addition to food, water, and bathroom breaks. Margo makes sure that pets never go too long without human interaction. Animals love Margo and she loves animals. I wish I could find someone like Margo to care for our brood when we go away because then I would feel confident that they were being well cared for and loved.

Margo has lived her whole life around animals. She grew up with lots of dogs and cats. She got her own dog for her 14th birthday and took care of him until she went to college. She has a kind a gentle way with both cats and dogs. I would be fortunate to have someone like her care for our pets.
