My partner and I currently have three medium dogs, including a senior and one who takes daily medicine, and two cats, including one with a history of urinary blockage and issues which necessitate a prescription wet food. I know the stress of trying to find someone responsible to care for your pet(s), and the importance of being attentive to pets and keeping owners updated throughout the visit or stay. (When I’m sitting overnight, my spouse makes sure ours are well-loved so your pet gets my full attention.) My experience spans most of my life. I've had dogs and cats since childhood, volunteered with the humane society, worked with a non-profit organization that trains therapy dogs for seniors and wilderness search dogs, and been a pet sitter since college. I've dealt with young puppies, rowdy kittens, separation anxiety, oral medications and prescription diets for both dogs and cats, multi-dog households, food aggression, and even a senior cat on injections. I know every pet has different needs, and am happy to do whatever it takes to keep them safe and happy. I also have experience owning and pet sitting for reptiles, hamsters, and ferrets, and am open to caring for any animal you need!
