My personal pets are my children.

Pet care experience

COVID-19 vaccinated. Since 1990 I have had three dogs, (2 Chow mixes and 1 Shih Tzu.). Recently, my last dog crossed the Rainbow Bridge at age 18 In addition since 1983, we have had 16 cats (4 cats max at one time.) Currently only 1 cat; plus, we have a Conure (New World Parrot). I love animals and think of them all as my children. I’m fully able to provide medications. Nearly all the animals I have ever had have been rescues. I get upset when I hear about animal abuse and want to just go and rescue the dogs and cats. I am also able to do in at your home stays. I have always been available for my friends to help with their pets.

Great updates every time and communication was immediate and thorough. I really appreciated the time she took to check on the cats, sometimes twice a day. Not only does she care about our pets, but she helped maintain our home while we were gone. Would recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy sitter.

I treat all pets as if they were my own, which I consider my children. I spend the necessary time to see to their comfort, including proper food water and treats, bedding, walks, and litter. I take photos to send to my customers on each visit to assure the pet(s) are taken care of and doing well. I look forward to speaking initially with new customers about their needs and following their requirements.

Information Norma R. would like to know about your pet

Veterinarian Information for any emergencies, medications that need to be administered, special diets, any special needs, favorite toys, special treats, special friends, appropriate and timely contact information, special requirements about the household, common hiding places, biographical information about the pet, likes and dislikes, potty habits, Any other information you'd love to share and think is important we know.

A typical day

If you have a neighborhood dog park, I'd love to let your dog play there. Finding their favorite toy and playing tug or catch. Hide and seek. Lots of love and, if necessary, grooming (i'm not a proper groomer, I mean brushing or removing tangles). Walks would always be limited to the location and what is available there.

I look forward to helping others on the occasion that they need pet-sitting for any reason, particularly in emergency situations and those occasional vacations, when you don't want, have available, or can't afford using a boarding facility. I believe pets prefer being home.
