Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Patty! I am a seasoned pet parent and I care for every animal like they are my own. I started volunteering at my local humane society in high school and that’s when I realized working with animals is something I really enjoy. I pet sit and walk dogs part time but aspire to do it full time. I work with many different temperaments and feel confident in handling any pet! I have senior experience and I’m comfortable with administering medications. I’m very communicative with parents and I try to be flexible to accommodate anyone I work with.
Reviews
Patricia was extremely helpful when watching our dogs. I could tell my dogs enjoyed having her drop in. She was responsive and updated me daily on how my pups were doing! Would definitely hire again.
Patty continues to be a light in our lives! She took such great care of her doing walks and drop-ins post surgery, administering her medications when needed and helping her to recover safely while I was at work. My dog required surgery her second week in my home, still struggling to house train and generally learn the rules of the house. This was no problem for Patty. She cleaned up multiple messes and bathed her as needed. She’s helped me train her over the last month in various ways, always coming up with fresh ideas to help her learn or new things to practice. Her kindness, compassion, and patience with my baby has been more than I ever could have dreamed of. I feel so safe and content with my pup in her care, I couldn’t ask for a better companion for my dog and support for me in owning my first pet!
Patricia has a beautiful energy. She’s kind to both me and my dog, she listens to any concerns and helps beyond what is asked! I’m a new pet owner and I sometimes work long hours so I’m wholeheartedly grateful for her help and calm presence!
My name is Diana and I have had 4 dogs and 4 cats at one time that were cared for by Patricia. She has a deep devotion to animals and truely cares about their well being. Consider yourself blessed to have her care for your furbabies!
About Patricia M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I offer drop ins, dog walking and overnights. I prefer doing a meet and greet prior to working with pets and owners. I prioritize going over routines and getting emergency contact information. Being prepared is important.
Information Patricia M. would like to know about your pet
No breed preferences! I would love to know if your dog has any allergies, or medical issues, safety concerns, what bothers them, their favorite treats and toys, is your pet an escape artist? Do they like other cats or dogs?
A typical day
Anywhere the owner feels comfortable like the neighborhood or nearby parks. Naps on the couch or bed are welcome! Playing and running in the back yard and I love to play tag with my dogs and run around the house!

Availability
I am currently working part time. However, I really enjoy caring for pets so anytime I can help others in my community I do! I usually work three to four days a week so my schedule is pretty open.
