Highlights
Pet care experience
From Wagging Tails to Purring Pals!
I have extensive experience caring for dogs & cats, currently having an English Bulldog and having previously owned Labs and American Bulldogs. I'm well-versed in managing large dog breeds and understand their unique needs. My approach balances structure and discipline with encouragement for playfulness and curiosity. I connect naturally with dogs & cats, providing the care they need at every stage of life, from energetic puppies & kittens to gentle seniors. I treat every pet as one of my own, understanding how integral they are to the family and the love they deserve. It would be my privilege to care for your furry friend, and I look forward to building a bond with both you and your pet.

Safety, trust & environment
In my home and in my clients' homes, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable environment for pets. This includes ensuring that the space is free from hazards and providing a cozy spot for them to relax. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, walks, and playtime, which helps pets feel secure and well-cared for. I also focus on keeping the environment clean, regularly checking for any signs of discomfort or health issues. During walks, I ensure pets are on a leash and safe, while also allowing them to explore and enjoy their surroundings. Communication with clients is key, so I keep them updated on their pet’s well-being and activities. Overall, my goal is to treat every pet as part of my family, giving them the love and attention they deserve.
Ratings and reviews
Rebecca has been an excellent cat-sitter for us. Our cat, Albus, feels very comfortable and chatty around her and that’s testament to how well she takes care of him. Highly recommend Rebecca to care for your pets!
Rebecca was fantastic! She checked in a few days before to ensure everything was good to go and we found I needed a lock box for my keys, she had an extra one and let me borrow it! When I was overseas she would check in on my sweet ole lady everyday, provide her with her medicine and vitamin with the addition of 7 pictures everyday! I’ll definitely utilize her services again, and next time have a lock box of my own.
Rebecca was a caring and reliable catsitter! Would absolutely book again.
We are grateful that we found Rebecca as a drop-in sitter for our fur-baby Raphael, who is a very affectionate cat that needs some company when his family is away traveling. While sitting for us, Rebecca sent us lots of pictures, scooped litter, played with him, and checked his ears daily (as Raphael is prone to ear infections). We plan to hire her again for a longer sitting!
Absolutely perfect job with attention to details and kindness and compassion. Would absolutely book again. Went above and beyond what was expected.
Rebecca took care of my 2 cats while I was away and did everything I asked of her and more :) Will rebook in the future!

Schedule
Pet care is a central part of my daily routine. Every morning starts with a walk and playtime, ensuring my dog gets the exercise and mental stimulation they need. I set aside time for feeding, grooming, and training sessions throughout the day, which helps keep my dog engaged and happy. During the week, I also prioritize socialization with other dogs and trips to the park. This keeps my pet well-rounded and balanced. On weekends, I enjoy longer adventures, whether it's hiking, visiting pet-friendly places, or simply spending quality time at home. Pet care isn’t just a task for me; it’s a fulfilling aspect of my life that brings joy and companionship.
