Responsible pet lover

Pet care experience

Hi! First, I love dogs and cats and they love me too! I recently retired and am finally able to embrace my love of helping others out with their fur babies. I'm flexible and full of love and energy to share with yours. I've fostered both dogs and cats for years and have bottle fed new born kittens and cared for geriatric dogs and cats. I live in a condo on the golf course in Haile Plantation which has many walking paths and am entirely portable if you'd prefer a house/pet sitting situation. I keep my footprint small and clean up after myself so if you do need a home pet sitter it would be like I was never there once you get home.

Trish stayed in our home with Reece for 5 days! Reece loves her! She sent us several photos of Reece during our absence. Our home was just as we left it! Will be using Trish more in near future.

Safety, trust & environment

I enjoy walking dogs in my quiet pet friendly neighborhood and enjoy spending time outside. I’m capable of walking dogs on a leash and am careful about how I do so. For cats I make sure to clean litter boxes out at least twice daily. I follow instructions for feeding and love relaxing and playing with both cats and dogs.

Information Patricia D. would like to know about your pet

I think all animals deserve to be seen as individuals and I am excited about meeting all types of fur babies. I follow instructions well and enjoy meeting animals before we start so I know they’ll be comfortable with me.

A typical day

I live in Haile Plantation which has many walking paths and open land for walking and jogging. My typical day since retiring has been pretty relaxed, reading or watching television. I enjoy having fur babies to snuggle with and rarely leave home except to run errands occasionally.
