Experienced caregiver for all pets
Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Rebecca. I’ve had experience taking care of animals from a young age, from my own pets to pets of neighbors, friends, and family. My family has a senior Labrador/Golden Retriever mix at home, who I grew up with, and we spent 17 years with our wonderful cat Sammie. I am also a happy cat mom myself for my Siamese kitten, Vivienne. Pets I’ve cared for over the years include dogs, cats, ferrets, hedgehogs, fish, crabs, parakeets, and pigeons. For dogs specifically—I have worked with dogs of all ages and all sizes. I am also completely comfortable giving special accommodations to dogs who have medical needs. I love meeting new dogs and learning about each one’s unique personality, so I go into every stay with an open mind. My goal when caring for any animal is to make their life on Earth as fun and enjoyable as possible, because while our pets are only here for a part of our lives, we’re practically their entire life. It’s our responsibility to care for them and provide enjoyment for them, and I will be more than happy to provide fun, in addition to basic care, when their owners aren’t around.
Reviews
Rebecca does a great job gives us a real piece of mind having her as a return sitter this year. She always replies right away if we have questions. She took great pictures of our furry friends and kept us updated
Rebecca got along with our pup so well! She sent us wonderful pictures while we were away. 10/10 would recommend her!
Rebecca dropped in and did exactly what I had asked. Thanks Rebecca!
My pup was happy and well taken care of while Rebecca was here. My home was clean and no concerns. I will rebook in the future! Thank you!!
About Rebecca H.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have experience working in a large variety of home environments as well as public spaces, and I am adaptable to whatever preferences an owner or pet may have.
Information Rebecca H. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know the dog’s temperament and how comfortable they are around people and other dogs. I would also like to know what activities the dog enjoys most, which toys and treats they love, and where he/she usually goes for walks. Obviously medical information needs to be communicated with as much specific detail as possible, as well as housekeeping/logistical information (what to do with dirty materials in case of an accident, etc). As far as breed preferences go, I have none.
A typical day
If a dog is comfortable around people and/or other dogs, I might take them for a walk in the park or on a trail in town. I’ll play with them and their favorite toys, play fetch, maybe play a (safe) game of chase if they’re into that! Belly rubs, butt scratches, A+ cuddles. Anything to keep a dog healthy and happy.

Availability
I am currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to fit pet care into my days. I am available every day of the week, hours subject to change.
