Pet care experience

Peace of Mind Pet Sitting

I have been caring for animals all of my life. I have pet/house sat for many friends, family members and neighbors throughout my life. I am told that I bring a soothing, calm presence that puts both humans and animals at ease. I deeply love animals. I am a naturally neat person so I will also keep your home clean and bring in mail, water plants, etc. I am highly responsible and retired from doing hospice work. I do grief support remote work on a part time basis. I am in great health, a meditator since high school and highly experienced in caring for all types of pets. If you choose me to care for your beloved pets and home, I will make sure that they feel safe, comfortable and nurtured and will give them all the play, exercise and attention they desire. I am local so am able to meet with you beforehand to ensure it is a good fit.

Safety, trust & environment

In a client's home, I make sure that I adhere to the schedule already set by the owners. I find that this helps animals with anxiety about their human companions being away. I also provide calm, loving presence which helps them feel comfortable and secure. I take them for walks, play, snuggle, basically whatever they do regularly with their humans. But I also respect boundaries, for instance, I snuggle with pets only if they initiate it and/or are into it. I deeply love animals and can easily tune into their needs and wants.

To whom it may concern, I have known Paulette Forest for over 35 years. I have witnessed first hand the highest level of care that she provided for all of her pets over the years. She has also cared for my cat Max. He adores Paulette. She gives him cat massages and a peaceful, loving presence and when he is in the mood to play, she played with him until he was ready to stop playing. Whenever he sees her, he runs to her. One night, when I had to go to ER for an emergent health issue, he was in distress. Paulette dropped what she was doing and stayed with him until it was resolved. That is why she is his godmother. If you utilize Paulette as a pet sitter, your pets will fall in love with her. Denise Aldelia Ward

Paulette would be the first person I would choose for care of my pets. During the lifetime of my most beloved dog Pearl, Paulette was a loving presence and provided beautiful care and love. Currently In the life of my sweet and precious Abby, Paulette continues to be a source of wisdom and compassion as Abby continues her journey of Canine Cognitive Decline. Paulette brings her beautiful heart to sweet Abby. I have known Paulette for a number of years and have the greatest respect for her humanity and her devotion to animals, both domestic and wildlife. She has a unique and beautiful way of letting our animal companions know they are safe and in the very best of care. Jane Guttman

I work remotely using my own phone on a part time basis providing grief support to people so I can accept pet/house sitting gigs. I can physically be there to help your animal companions feel safe and secure while you are away. I am specifically looking for housesitting/petsitting gigs.

16 to 40 lbs

Please let me know if your pet has any emotional or behavioral issues so I can come prepared to help put them at ease. I also would need to know ahead of time any medical needs or issues.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
