Experienced Animal Caretaker Tampa

Pet care experience

I have been pet sitting and walking dogs since I was a teenager as a side job, then went on for a degree in wildlife biology. I truly enjoy taking care of animals and ensuring they are safe and happy while their owners are away. I have 2 years experience volunteering with the Humane Society of Tampa Bay as a dog walker and in the feral cat clinic and trapping feral cats in the community for TVNR. Animals are my passion and working toward a cruelty free world is something that gets me up in the morning. I have fostered several litters of kittens requiring socialization and many different medications so I am very accustomed to difficult medical scenarios as well.

Hi! I work with Rebels Rescue, Inc. a mostly kitty Rescue. I am the Medical Foster, Adoption Center Coordinator, and Foster Coordinator for my area. Mimi reached out to us with 3 kittens that she saved from cerain death outside with other sick and feral kitties. She offered to Foster them, socially acclimate them and get them healthy and adopted. She did a great job with these now super sweet babies and 2 have been adoted into purr-fect homes! Mimi would be an awesome caregiver for any pet!

Mimis love for animals is great. She is a biologist with a conservation Phd. She enjoys walking and taking care of doggies which she has done in the past for many friends for fun as well as different families. She frequently fosters and socializes little kittens until they are ready for adoption. Even when her specialty is bees, I know Mimis passion extends towards all kinds of pets.

Mimi is my go to pet sitter. Responsible, caring, reliable, and patient with my more difficult dog. We have both dogs and cats. Lots of special instructions. She manages it all with ease. Highly recommend.

Mimi has always been very professional when she pet sits for my wife and myself. She goes way above and beyond to look after the best interests of all of our pet children. Mimi has a very good heart for animals and knows how to care for them passionately. Not to mention she can follow complicated instructions to care for senior animals. Your animal kids will be in good hands in Mimi's care.
