Highlights
Pet care experience
I care for every pet like family.
Hi there! I'm Miranda. It's nice to meet you. I've had more than a 30 years of caring for cats and dogs. I am a registered veterinary technician, and have worked off and on in a clinic setting since 2006. I grew up with cats, and got my first dog when I was 24. I've had many dogs and cats since then, a few with special needs. Meet and greets are required prior to me caring for your pet, just to make sure all of us are a good fit. I want your pets to be comfortable with me. Also, if your dog is trained, I like to stick with your commands. In addition to cats and dogs, I can also care for rats, mice, hamsters, gerbils, rabbits, snakes (sorry rats), reptiles, and even your spiders. Rabbits I am uncomfortable giving them medication, but I can do everything else for them. I can also help with cleaning a birds cage and feeding. I'm able to give medications to cats and dogs, can walk your Bearded Dragon or cat on a harness (not too far, tho.) I can also do subcutaneous fluid as well as intramuscular injections to snakes. I prefer to house sit for a max of 10 days as I like to spend time with my family and pets. I can be flexible, so please ask. I do not accept newly adopted pets as they want to get to know their new family and home prior to them going on trips.

Safety, trust & environment
We have a large fenced yard. Most of the lawn edging has been removed for the safety of our own pets and other dogs that come hang out. Our dogs go out to the bathroom every 2 to 4 hours, sometimes up to 5 hours. They get to go play in the yard yard and also get to wander around the house. There are gates in certain areas that we don't want them to be in, such as the room with the litter box, my reading room and the kitchen. They're not allowed in the bedrooms unless they are supervised and/or it's bedtime. At night, both of our poodles go to their "huts" which are in our bedroom. This way we'll be able to hear them if they have to go potty. Sometimes one of them will sneak on the bed and decide to sleep there. The dogs have multiple water fountains to drink out of, and a ton of toys. They are allowed to be on the furniture because they are our family members. The kitty has free roam of the entire house except for where doors are closed. When I'm at client's homes, I play with their pets, give lots of good scratches and pets, give them medications if needed, make sure their litter boxes and other areas are clean, as well as clean up any messes. If I stay at someone's home I make sure to leave it exactly how they had it before I came over. I'm respectful of people's property and I love being around their fur babies.
Ratings and reviews
Miranda was fantastic! Our puppy loved her, she was very communicative, and sent lots of pictures. I highly recommend choosing Miranda
Miranda was amazing. She went above and beyond as a sitter! She made me feel less anxious leaving because she kept my pup safe. She is a great communicator and would send pictures. She even tidied up my house before I got home! 10/10 recommend! 💜
We’ve booked twice with Miranda and she’s been amazing taking care of our two cats! She’s knowledgeable (one of our cats takes medicine and she’s familiar/comfortable with it), attentive, communicative, and flexible/great to work with. We’re so glad we found her profile when searching for a sitter and will definitely continue booking with her!
Miranda did an awesome job! She was caring, punctual and my cats loved her.
Miranda is amazing! She’s on time, commutative and very sweet our fur babies. I highly recommend her.
Miranda did an above-and-beyond job staying at our house and caring for our two dogs. She was caring competent, and professional. She kept us well in the loop about everything going on in real-time, as well as leaving us a schedule of the dog's daily activities and food consumption. There is no doubt in my mind that Miranda loves caring for pets and that our pets adored her. Our house was also in pristine condition when we returned. We have already booked Miranda to watch our dogs again. I usually feel so awful leaving my pups behind when we have to go on an extended trip, but with Mirandra watching them, I know they are in good hands, having fun, and enjoying themselves! I would highly recommend her for any and all of your pet needs! Going forward, I will only be using Miranda!!
