I am a retired Mother of 3 whose children are all grown up. Aside from helping my elderly Mother and walking my neighbor's dog my schedule is wide open. I can provide pet sitting in your home including overnights. Don't let my age fool you! I am high energy and walk many miles a day.

About Rebecca W.

Safety, trust & environment
10 years ago I hired a family member to stay with my pets for 2 weeks. It was the first time I trusted someone to watch my animals. The first time I had been away from my dog. I couldn't get a hold of her so I sent someone over to check on them on the 3rd day. There was a gigantic pile of dog food on the floor and feces and urine everywhere. My poor dog was entirely alone and one of my cats was missing. I was devastated when we came home to discover my cat had passed away from being locked in a hot garage. that was the last time we took a vacation without our pets along. All this to say I know how important it is to have trustworthy pet care and I pride myself on providing it. I also recognize the importance of communication between client and provider.

Information Rebecca W. would like to know about your pet
I have tons of special needs experience and working with very old animals so if that's a concern I can help. I know how stressful it is to worry whether your pet is being cared for properly so anything I can do to ease that whether it be through good communication or accessibility I am here for you and happy to do it.
A typical day
I love walking dogs,if your dog likes the dog park I would love to take them there. I really like to try lots of different activities whether it's puzzle toys or fetch,long walks or short ones. I also like to work on training and teaching to encourage positive behaviors and limit negative behaviors and anxiety.

patient, enthusiastic pet care
Pet care experience
I have many years of experience caring for animals. My own dogs are very old and no longer enjoy walks so I started walking dogs in my neighborhood. I have a knack for calming reactionary dogs and nervous walkers. I enjoy every animal, especially the challenging ones. Pet sitting, playing with dogs, taking walks, what could be better than that? It truly is a passion.
Cat care experience
Rebecca also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Ross had a wonderful stay with Rebecca while we were out of town. She sent regular pictures and updates with quick responses and great communication. I had piece of mind knowing Ross was safe, having fun, and on his own vacation. Would highly recommend Rebecca for dog sitting.
Having Rebecca watch my dog was the best decision I made. She and her family took care of Coco for more than 2 weeks and he loved it. Rebecca was so welcoming to her home, communicated with me with enough details all throughout my dog’s stay with her. It’s been 2 days since I picked up Coco and I think he misses Rebecca and her lovely dog. We are so happy we found Rebecca and will take Coco to her anytime we need someone to watch him. Thank you for the flowers Rebecca.
Rebecca took great care of our dog and cat and purchased some supplies we forgot. Also was great at communicating !
Rebecca helped us out in a pinch! She was very kind and we would happily have her watch all three of our fur babies again. Thanks so much for taking good care of them!
