Pet care experience
Trusted Care for Cats & Medium Dogs
I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was young and have had animals as a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’m the go-to pet sitter among my friends and have experience caring for pets with a variety of needs. I’ve also volunteered with a cat rescue, where I helped care for kittens and cats with different health and behavioral needs. I work from home as a licensed psychotherapist, which allows me to provide reliable companionship and attention for pets throughout the day. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals, and I bring the same level of patience, responsibility, and care to pet sitting that I bring to my work with clients. I truly love animals of all kinds (including reptiles!) and believe every pet deserves patience, attention, and individualized care. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away, while giving you the peace of mind that they’re in good hands.

Schedule
I work from home as a licensed psychotherapist, which allows me to provide reliable care and attention throughout the day. My schedule allows for flexibility, regular check-ins, and plenty of time to be present with the pets in my care. I’m able to accommodate a variety of routines and understand that each pet has their own preferences, whether that means playtime, feeding schedules, medication reminders, or simply a calm presence nearby.

Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting a client’s home, I take the time to understand their routines, preferences, and individual needs so they feel secure and well cared for. I’m extremely attentive and respectful of each pet’s boundaries, especially with cats who may need time and patience to feel comfortable with a new person. I provide updates and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving thoughtful care while you’re away.
A typical day
A typical day is tailored to each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level. For cats, this may include playtime, enrichment activities, brushing if they enjoy it, keeping their feeding routine consistent, and spending quiet time nearby so they feel comfortable and cared for. I believe pets don’t just need basic care—they need attention, engagement, and someone who notices the little things. Whether your cat wants to play, explore, relax in a favorite spot, or simply have company, I’ll make sure they receive the care and attention they need while you’re away.
