Availability
Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my day around visits, walks, and check-ins rather than trying to squeeze them in around a rigid workday. That means I can show up consistently, adjust timing when needed, and be responsive if something changes, whether that’s an extra visit, a longer walk, or a quick check-in.

Safety, trust & environment
Since all of my services take place in my client’s home, my focus is on keeping things as familiar and consistent as possible for your pet. I follow your routines closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I pay attention to your pet’s behaviour and comfort level, adjusting my approach based on their energy, personality, and needs in the moment. For drop-ins and walks, I make sure your pet gets the right balance of care, whether that’s exercise, enrichment, or simply some calm company. For house sitting, I maintain a steady presence so your pet can stay relaxed in their own space while you’re away. I also take care to keep your home tidy and respected, so you can come back to everything just as you left it.
Information Rebecca A. would like to know about your pet
Before any booking, I like to understand your pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs that help them feel safe and comfortable. This includes feeding schedules, walk expectations, behaviour quirks, comfort level with new people, and any medical needs such as medication. I also find it helpful to know what your pet is like on a typical day, what helps them settle, what excites them, and anything that might be stressful so I can adjust and avoid those situations. I always include a free meet and greet before confirming any booking. This gives us a chance to meet in person, go over routines in more detail, and make sure you and your pet feels comfortable with me before leaving them in my care. The more I understand your pet ahead of time, the more I can meet you pet's and your needs.
A typical day
A typical day depends on your pet’s routine and what they’re used to at home. When it comes to activities, I keep things simple and guided by the animal. Some dogs are happiest getting out for longer walks and exploring, others prefer shorter, slower outings. For cats, it might be play, gentle interaction, or quiet companionship. I follow their lead and your instructions so their routine stays familiar and low-stress.

Flexible, work-from-home sitter
Pet care experience
I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with cats, and by my teenage years I was the go-to pet sitter for friends, family and friends of friends. Over time, that turned into paid, freelance work caring for both cats and dogs with a wide range of personalities and needs. I have experience with both kittens/puppies and senior pets, including those who need oral medication, and I’m comfortable caring for multiple animals at once while keeping their routines and needs separate and respected. What matters most to me is that your pet feels safe and not disrupted while you’re away. I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. Every animal is different, and I follow your routines, your preferences, and your pet’s cues. Some animals want play and energy, others want space and a calm presence. I’m attentive to that and adjust accordingly. I’m calm, gentle, and patient with animals. I respect their space and let them come to me, which tends to work especially well for shy or more sensitive pets. At the same time, I genuinely love connecting with animals, so if your pet is the cuddly type, they’ll get plenty of affection too. Because I work from home, I have a lot of flexibility in my day. I can adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs, whether that’s more frequent bathroom breaks, check-ins, or sticking closely to a specific routine. I offer a free meet and greet so we can make sure it’s a good fit for everyone. This also helps me understand your pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can care for them properly.

Reviews
Rebecca (Becca) Anderson has been a dedicated pet sitter for us many times. She is very reliable and conscientious while having fun with our pets at the same time. Our dog requires some medication and Becca has no difficulty at all administering it to her. Our cat, who is usually very antisocial, became very comfortable sitting alongside Becca. If we send her a text to inquire about anything regarding our pets or our home, she is very quick to respond. Upon our return, we always find our home in the same clean and tidy condition as we left it. Becca is an animal lover and as such comes highly recommended as a trustworthy, loving sitter.
