Pet care experience

Loving Pet Care While You’re Busy!

For over 10 years, I’ve been dedicated to caring for all types of cats and dogs, providing reliable and loving service to my family and neighbors. From playful puppies to calm senior cats, I’ve gained experience with pets of all breeds, sizes and personalities. My commitment to their well-being ensures they receive the best care, whether it’s feeding, walking, or simply offering companionship. I’ve built strong relationships with both pets and their owners, always prioritizing safety and happiness.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I follow a consistent routine to make sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for. In my own home, my dogs are let out in the morning, midday, and evening, along with daily walks to keep them active and engaged. They are seniors, so I’m experienced with slower paced care and administering medication on a strict schedule, including daily medication for heart disease. I’ve also cared for high energy dogs and puppies! I enjoy keeping them active through walks and play, while always adjusting to their individual needs and energy levels. With cats, I focus on creating a calm, lower stress environments so they can feel safe and build trust at their own pace. I stay on top of litter box cleanliness and make sure they get regular playtime and attention based on their personality. I aim to provide consistent and attentive care for all the animals I take care of!

Meryk did a great job making sure Big Boy was happy and cared for while I was at work. He even stayed a few extra minutes extra to play with the cat wand and sent pictures! 10/10 will hire again.

Schedule

I am very responsive and try to maintain clear, consistent communication. My availability is kept up to date on my calendar, and I am flexible throughout the day depending on bookings. I can come over for a quick feeding or to spend several hours with your pets, depending on what will benefit them the most. I work remotely, which allows me a lot of flexibility to provide care and attention throughout the day. On rare occasions, I may travel out of town, but I update my calendar well in advance to reflect any changes. I’m always open to coordinating schedules and finding arrangements that work well for both the pet owner and the pets. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to help and provide reliable care!

Please let me know if your pet has any medicine schedule or any specific preferences you want me to account for when I provide care. I’d love to know favorite types of play, and walking routes as well as comfort-level with other humans or animals while on walks.
