Pawsome Care for Dogs & Cats

I have a senior diabetic dog, Diesel, so I truly understand the level of care pets need—especially those with medical or special needs. I’ve spent years caring for animals of all kinds and know how to create a calm, loving environment. Whether it’s administering medications, offering comfort, or sticking to routines, I treat every pet like family. You’ll have peace of mind knowing your furry loved one is in experienced, compassionate hands.

Punam was so great at watching my two cats while I was out for a week! She sent plenty of pictures, videos, and followups. Although my cats are a bit skiddish, they LOVED greeting her at the door! I loved knowing that they were doing well while I was gone and in good hands. 🙌 Thank you for your care Punam! Ghost, Bagheera, and I greatly appreciate you!! 💗💗💗🐈‍⬛🐈

Punam was great with my cat while I went away for a long weekend. Responded quite quickly and did above and beyond for my cat!

I’ve known Punam for close to ten years. She is very genuine and caring and one of my favorite attributes about her is her love for animals. I’ve seen how she cares for her own and I’ve seen how she has treated wild and or strays on the street. I would without a doubt want her to be the one to watch my pets over anyone!

My wife and I couldn’t recommend Punam more highly! She is one of the most caring and responsible people we know, especially when it comes to animals. She has personally helped us with both our cat and our dog on multiple occasions, and each time she’s gone above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Our pitbull, Lola, absolutely adores her, and even our cat, Carlton—who isn’t the easiest to please—warms up to her quickly. It’s clear that animals genuinely trust her, and that’s something you can’t fake. She treats every pet like they’re part of her own family, and that kind of care is rare to find. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, loving, and reliable to take care of your pet, you won’t find anyone better.

I had an amazing experience with Punam! She took wonderful care of my 3 dogs while I was away. She was attentive, reliable, and truly passionate about my dogs. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. It’s clear that she goes above and beyond to ensure pets are happy and comfortable. I highly recommend her pet sitting services and will definitely use her again in the future!

5 Stars – Exceptional Pet Sitting Experience! I can't recommend Punam highly enough! From the moment we first connected, I felt completely at ease knowing my pets would be in great hands. She took the time to understand each of my pets’ individual needs, personalities, and routines, and treated them with so much love and care—just like family. While I was away, I received regular updates, including photos and notes that showed how happy and comfortable my pets were. It was such a relief to see them relaxed and well-cared for. The house was also left spotless, and everything was exactly as I left it. It’s rare to find someone so dependable, compassionate, and attentive. Punam went above and beyond in every way, and I’ll definitely be booking again. If you're looking for a truly trustworthy and loving pet sitter, look no further!

Before caring for any pet, I like to get a clear understanding of their needs and routines to make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owner is away. I always ask: Health concerns: any allergies, medical conditions, medications, or vet info Feeding: meal schedule, treat preferences, and food restrictions Bathroom habits: potty schedule, accident history, or special instructions Behavior: how they react to other dogs, people, or loud noises; any aggression triggers or fears Daily routine: where they sleep, how often they need to go out, what they enjoy doing Commands or training they know (so I can stay consistent) Exercise needs: walk frequency, energy level, and physical limitations Every pet is different, so I tailor my care to their specific personality and comfort level. Whether they love fetch or just want cuddles and calm time, I make sure they feel at home with me!
