Pet care experience
I've taken care of cats since I was 9. I'm also comfortable handling snakes, lizards, and birds--I used to do that for my high school science teachers! I've volunteered at a cat rescue and I've helped my mom train her Labradoodle puppy! I love animals and I don't mind taking care of the stinky messes they make!
Reviews
Rebecca did a great job taking care of my kitty and housesitting. She watered all my outdoor plants daily. She sent reports and pictures and even made friends with my cat who is sometimes very slow to warm up to new people. I would recommend Rebecca to care for your fur babies.
I've known Rebecca for three years now and she's incredibly compassionate and organized human! She's kind and patient and always takes the opportunity to fully listen and understand any situation. I am happy to recommend Rebecca for this service!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a 1-bedroom apartment with a cat, so I won't be able to board any additional animals. I do believe in treating animals well and respecting their body language. When you're gone, it stresses them out and if they want pets, I'm happy to provide! If they don't, that's also okay. Tiring out cats, making sure any cages / kennels / litter boxes stay clean, and providing affection and attention is all part of the package!
Information Rebecca D. would like to know about your pet
Are they anxious? Are they nervous around dogs or other people? Do you want specific trainings reinforced? Are there places you DON'T want them to go without you? What about allergies and acceptable treats?
A typical day
I love to go to parks (metro & state parks)! I enjoy playing catch, running around with them, walking through malls or shopping centers (especially if you're looking to acclimatize them to being around people). I'll play games of tug-of-war and gladly reinforce any training you're introducing to them.

Availability
