Loving Pet Parent & Sitter : )

For 30 years, I’ve been a dedicated pet sitter and pet parent, caring for dogs, cats, birds, turtles, fish, and more. I’m experienced with pets of every size, age, and personality—from energetic puppies to seniors needing gentle support. Families have relied on me for decades because I bring calm, dependable, compassionate care to every visit and treat every pet like my own.

I have known Pam for years and have seen her with her with her own pets, as well as my own, and with other pets she has cared for. She is a loving, caring and compassionate animal lover. She is great with all types of animals. Patient, kind and loving no matter the circumstances. I have seen her care for wonderful animals and for some that were not so wonderful. She amazes me the way she seems able to tap in to what they need at any given time. Any pet owner would be very fortunate to have her care for their babies.

Pam has taken wonderful care of our dogs, Ollie and Koda, on multiple occasions while we’ve been away on vacation, sometimes for weeks at a time, and we truly could not recommend her more highly. She is incredibly loving, attentive, and active with them, which is especially important since Ollie and Koda are both very energetic breeds - a cattle dog and an Australian Shepherd. Pam always made sure they were well cared for, well exercised, and had plenty of engaging activities throughout the day. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands, and it was clear how much they loved her every time we came to pick them up!

Pamela is excellent in her care of my pets. She has been caring for my pets for years. She provides great physical care including their minor grooming, loves taking them on walks and throwing their ball. She gives them lots of love and cuddling, and is very nurturing with them. Any pet owner will be happy and lucky to have her care for their pet(s).

We had a wonderful experience with our Pamela! We have both cats and dogs, and she took amazing care of all of them while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and sent thoughtful updates and photos that gave us peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared about our pets. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!

I've known Pam for over 15 years, and I've seen firsthand how caring she is with animals. She's cared for our pets many times, and we've always had complete peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. Pam is kind, trustworthy, knowledgeable, and treats every pet like her own. I would never hesitate to leave my pets with her, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter! She is the BEST!

Schedule

Pet care is already a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. With 30 years of experience as a pet sitter and pet parent, I’m used to structuring my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication needs, and keeping litter boxes fresh and deeply cleaned. I check in on pets throughout the day, make time for bonding and enrichment, and maintain a calm, predictable environment that helps every pet feel secure. Caring for animals has always been part of my lifestyle, so integrating your pet’s needs into my routine is seamless and genuinely enjoyable. And, my dog is friendly to all types of other animals, cats, birds, rabbits, and more.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment. In my home, pets enjoy a fully fenced yard and the company of my well‑trained, gentle, and friendly dog who does great with other animals. I can easily crate your dog if needed and follow any routines you prefer. In your home, I maintain your pet’s normal schedule, keep their space clean, and make sure they feel comfortable and secure. With 30 years of experience, I provide reliable, attentive care wherever your pet feels most at home.

Pets

A typical day

Fun Activities & Enrichment I make sure every pet in my care enjoys a day filled with enrichment, exercise, and affection. Whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting yours, I tailor activities to each pet’s personality so they feel happy, relaxed, and engaged. Outdoor Time in the Yard Pets enjoy supervised playtime in my fully fenced yard, where they can sniff, explore, and stretch their legs. I offer gentle fetch or tug games for energetic pets, peaceful sunbathing or shaded lounging for seniors, and friendly social time with my calm, well‑mannered Aussie Doodle who loves other animals. Walks & Park Adventures For dogs who enjoy getting out and about, I provide neighborhood walks and optional trips to a nearby park. I adjust the pace to match your pet’s needs—slow and steady for seniors, more active for energetic pups—and reinforce basic manners like sit, wait, and loose‑leash walking if you’d like. Indoor Comfort & Play Inside, pets enjoy toy play, puzzle games, feather‑wand fun for cats, and cozy cuddle time for those who prefer calm companionship. I also offer enrichment activities like snuffle mats, treat‑hiding games, and gentle brushing for pets who enjoy grooming. Personalized Attention Every pet is unique, so I customize their day based on what they love—whether that’s chasing a ball, exploring the yard, curling up for cuddles, or enjoying a peaceful walk. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and right at home.

To give your pet the best possible care, I like to learn a few important details in advance. This helps me tailor their routine, keep them comfortable, and make sure their stay or visit goes smoothly. I may recommend a meet‑and‑greet before your booking so your pet can get comfortable with me, explore the space, and make sure we’re a great fit. It’s a helpful chance for us to talk through your pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs they may have. This quick visit gives you peace of mind, helps your pet feel safe and relaxed, and ensures their stay or visit goes as smoothly as possible. Personality & Behavior How your pet behaves around new people, dogs, cats, or other animals Any fears, triggers, or quirks (loud noises, storms, car rides, etc.) Whether they’re shy, energetic, cuddly, independent, or need extra reassurance Daily Routine Feeding schedule and portion sizes Usual potty times and preferred bathroom routine Walk preferences (pace, distance, favorite routes) Sleep habits — crate, bed, couch, or a special spot Health & Safety Any medical conditions or mobility issues Medications, supplements, or special care instructions Allergies (food, treats, environmental) Vet information and emergency contacts Training & Rules Commands they know Leash behavior House rules (furniture, treats, toys, etc.) Crate training or separation anxiety needs Social Preferences How they feel about meeting other dogs Whether they enjoy park time or prefer quiet walks Comfort level with car rides or new environments Special Needs or Requests Grooming preferences (brushing, baths, sensitive areas) Favorite toys, games, or comfort items Anything that helps them feel safe, calm, and at home
