I follow your instructions on how you’d like your pet cared for in a clean playful environment for the quietest to the most energetic of pets.

Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was very young. Neighbors, friends, co-workers, bosses, all have relied on me to care for their pets as if they were my own. 2 years ago, I started working for a petsitting company and have gained even more experience during that time working with a variety of different dogs and cats. I am available to give one on one personal attention to your pet either in my home or yours Sunday through Saturday which includes nights and weekends as well as housesitting while on vacation. I have two friendly dogs of my own to keep your pet company during the day and do have the option to crate a dog if you are working on teaching your dog that as well. I do love animals and enjoy the time spent with them.

Renate watched our moderately hyper golden doodle with ease. She was so awesome the times she sat him before- when we relocated out of state- I brought him back to MI knowing he would be in good hands during our visit. This time she also sat our really particular yorkipoo who is a stage 5 clinger and has separation anxiety. She keeps you updated constantly, is accommodating, predicts your needs during busy travel (eg asked if she should give both their anxiety rx the am of pickup knowing we had travel same day), and clearly has passion for sitting! Drop off and pickup is a breeze. Home is clean and never smells like “dogs.”Her two dogs are very sweet and seem laid back. Whole family really is sweet. See you on our next trip home to MI Renate!

Renate was very loving with Mishqui and took care of her for more than two weeks. I found it very meaningful that Mishqui could stay with Renate’s dogs Kate and Charlotte that are very adorable.

Renee took excellent care of my pup. She sent regular updates and photos. It was our first time leaving him with someone other than family, but he was in great hands and well loved while with her. Highly recommend!
