Lots of cuddles and love!

Pet care experience

I am 25 years old, and I have three cats of my own (Riley, Kiwi, and Cosmo) and a huge love for dogs! I have experience around many animals. I grew up around dogs, cats, fish, birds, corn snakes, hamsters, and frogs. I love to take care of other peoples animals! I've cared for puppies, small, medium, large, and giant dogs. Although, I much prefer taking care of smaller to medium sized dogs. I've also cared for kittens, and adult cats. Other pets besides cats and dogs are welcome as well! My husband, Adam, stays with me and helps me with all my pet sitting stays. I am easy to get a hold of, reliable, and want to ensure your cat or dog is perfectly at home! I grew up around dogs and have always had a dog in the house. I'm extremely clean. I'll make sure to take care of your home, and leave it beautiful when I leave! I look forward to meeting you and your animals!

Mercedes Was great with our dog. She communicated well and Rocky was happy when we got home.

When we came home, our dogs were happy and well-fed. I would hire Mercedes again! Highly recommend.

Hi there- thank you for watching our pets. We do appreciate what you did. I know you fed both pets and cleaned Max's litter and I truly appreciate it. However there are a couple things we asked you to do that were not done: All mail still in mailbox. Instead of cleaning auto feeder after use you reloaded it with more food (disgusting). You guys didn't cover tomato plant at all. Despite my instructions with request in text string. Didn't call for instructions re how to pull drip line out of pot. This is so simple. We had to remove about 6 inches of snow from plants at 1030pm and try to save about $150 worth of plants. There were three spots in carpet that you guys attempted to clean. You never mentioned who did it? Why did the pet get sick? Our pets don't usually vomit or make messes in house. I'd love to know why it occurred - what caused it? I think I see orange stain - was it Stella? If you had called me- I could have told you where to find appropriate spot remover. As it is- I didn't find spot to treat until much later and am still working on spots. Lastly, despite cold temperatures outside you left bathroom window open. I had opened it the day you arrived as temps were 60+. And if I'm being honest, I'm a little surprised you didn't strip your bedsheets and towels for me. It was nice meeting you both and I really thought I would be tipping you. However, you won't know these things unless people provide feedback. As much as I don't like to provide negative feedback, I want you to learn from this. As have I. I will definitely include these things In written communication going forward. I'll include a picture of how drip lines are "stuck" into a pot with a little stick too. Thank you. I wish you luck in all future endeavors.

It'd be best if your dog had access to being outside while I am away but I can always stay overnight and do morning and evening feedings. My husband stays with me and can also provide pet care after he's off work if I'm not immediately available.
