Pet care experience
Pets have been an important part of our family for over 50 years. We have raised a Basenji, a couple of labs, cute mutts, many cats, even squirrels. During the last year, I have been pet and house sitting for others, who have requested me back many times when they are away. I give their pets the same care and love I give my pets. Currently, we have three adorable and loving cats roaming our home. I have also cared for My mother, mother and father in law and my husband in my home full time during their declining years.
Reviews
Pat was fantastic; I could not have asked for a better more attentive sitter for our very senior dog who needed scheduled medications and a fair amount of attention.
Pat was responsive, very helpful with our animals and left our house spotless! We definitely recommend Pat and hope we can have her help us in the future.
This is the 2nd time Pat helped take care of our senior lab. She was punctual, left my house cleaner than when she came, and took such great care of our dog. Our dog was calm and happy when we came home. We are so grateful to have found Pat.
Pat did an excellent job caring for our 2 cats, and also caring for the house. We will definitely invite her to care for them again.

Safety, trust & environment
I usually have overnight pet sitting. I request a schedule they already have for their pet/pets that I can follow. Feeding times, bathroom, and exercises their pets are comfortable with. I also request vet and emergency phone numbers. Phone numbers of neighbors they trust is always nice.

If they are friendly with people or other dogs, while out walking. Are they allowed on furniture/beds. Do they like children, Are they protective. Do they need medication, special foods, grooming, outdoor time. Need Vet and emergency numbers, also phone numbers of neighbors they trust.
A typical day
If allowed, I will take them to dog parks. When walking dogs, I will vary the routes, so they can enjoy new sights and smells. I can play fetch, if there is a yard or open park/field near by. I can also drive them to new walking areas, if owners approve.
