For the love of our animals

Pet care experience

I've grown up around animals on a small family farm with sheep, chickens, dogs and cats. Animals have always been a priority in my life. I currently have cats, chickens and goats and I hate to admit it but I will always want more! Caring for pets both that are mine and others has been part of my life since I can remember. From helping birth lambs or caring for mamma cats in labor I've done close to it all when it comes to animal care. Animal behavior has become an interest in the last 8-10 years and I have worked to learn more about training and behaviors as it helps with their individualized needs. Making sure that your animals are not only comfortable but happy and safe while your away is my main goal.

Pam spoiled my babies with walks and dog parks! Sent lots of updates with photos and left my home as it was when I left. She spent nights also at my house!! Very pleased with her and the care she gave my best buddies Gemma and Bohdi!

AAAAA++++ If you need an amazing, responsible, tuned in house/pet sitter look no further. We are incredibly grateful that Pam could fit us in her schedule and on short notice. She went above and beyond to make sure our scared cat (who hides from new people), got food in her system while we were away. She sent regular updates and pictures that put us at ease. Our pets were so comfortable in her presence they looked for her when we got home. Our cats are older, grumpy and have various diets and important asthma medications -we appreciate her attention to detail so our pets could get what they needed following our similar routines. The house was cleaner than we left it, plants watered and happy kitties. We will definitely be using Pam again for a stress free vacation.

Pam possesses an exceptional affinity for animals and has been actively engaged in animal husbandry from a young age, gaining extensive experience through raising sheep, chicken, pigs and caring for cats and dogs throughout her life. She is a highly knowledgeable resource for animal-related inquiries, demonstrating a remarkable connection with animals that allows her to understand your pets needs intuitively. Pam's expertise encompasses a range of subjects, including animal first aid and the administration of both over-the-counter and prescription medications. Pam has provided support to numerous species of mothers during the birthing process. She has participated in both planned and emergency animal rescue operations across various species and is actively engaged in nonprofit events that benefit both animals and humans. Additionally, she contributes her skills, time, and resources from her company, "Howard Family Painting and More", to support various animal rescues and other nonprofit organizations. She is dependable and flexible in accommodating various scheduling requirements for services such as drop-in visits, dog walking, house sitting, and other animal care needs. Her insights and professionalism make her an invaluable asset in the field of animal care. She has personal pets, including goats and cats, that she cares for deeply. Recently, she experienced the loss of her dog, which has given her a profound understanding of the grieving process. As a result, she can truly empathize with individuals navigating similar experiences of loss. Pam has consistently demonstrated exceptional care and affection for my pets, as well as for those of many friends. If you are seeking someone who will provide dedicated and attentive care for your animal, I highly recommend Pam.

Pet care for my animals happens daily. I wake up and am set into the potty and feed schedule not only for my indoor animals but for my outdoor livestock pets as well. Animal care has been subconscious since a young age. I have always enjoyed seeing the happiness of animals and my schedule as of late has made that easier and easier to make a larger part of my life.
