Availability

I currently work remotely from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am very familiar with the Colorado Springs area as well as animal-friendly parks and pathways. I do not need much notice to help you with your animals and home, and I don't mind last-minute cancellations, as I know life happens! I am available when you need me - days, nights, weekends, or week stays (we can discuss if you need longer). I also will put your pet's care as a priority so if they require something like specific attention or multiple walks a day, I am here to help!

Safety, trust & environment

I currently have a cat at home - but she is indoor/outdoor and I have multiple indoor facilities on my property so mixing your pets with mine will not be an issue. Your pet will be taken care of at my home as if it is my own! I do not have a fenced-in yard but I live in a more forested area of the city with many dog-friendly hiking trails so we can stretch your fur baby's legs frequently on a leash, so that's not a problem. If I am caring for your pet at your house - you set the rules, and I abide. I am here to help in the way you need.

Compassionate Animal Friend

Pet care experience

I love animals. I have taken care of my family and friends' dogs over the past twenty years and have been entrusted with both housesitting as well as walking, bathing, and administering medications. I have had many different pets growing up and housed over 30 cats in my lifetime. I volunteered for 7 years at my local nature center as the animal caretaker growing up and currently have a year's worth of volunteering at the Wild Blue Sanctuary in Colorado Springs. I am very passionate about all animals! I treat every animal with respect, patience, and love - knowing it may take them a moment to feel comfortable with a new person. Animals quickly warm up to me because of my compassion and sensitive nature, and if you allow me to care for your fur baby I will show them as much attention and love as I know you give them! *Extremely punctual for all appointments, even a bit early!* *I am very strong on communication and send many pictures during care time* *I will retrieve your mail and packages left at the door, as well as water plants if needed*

Nora is the BEST!!! So kind, went above and beyond, and my cat loved her! She regularly sent pictures and updates. It is such a great feeling to know my cat is in great hands when I’m on the road. We are so grateful for Nora and would absolutely book with her again :)
