Pet care experience

Devoted to improving pet’s lives!

A meet and greet in your home is required before any booking (I do not charge for this). I’ve been working with animals since 1981. I have experience with large animals such as horses, pigs, and cows, as well as exotics like avians, reptiles, and small mammals. I’ve fostered puppies and kittens, worked as a vet assistant in both emergency and routine veterinary care. I’m also done work as an animal behaviorist and trainer for people and shelters in the area. Pet sitting and providing play time as well as potty breaks is a joy, and it is very important to me to make sure you have happy, cared for pets, and all the help you need while you’re away. Thank you for considering me.

Probably one of most nicest people I've met in a long time. Due to the last minute cancelation of another Rover Sitter, I reached out to Renee and explained our situation. She was more than happy to help and accept our desperate cry at the last minute. She came on Thursday to get the keys and I immediately fell in love. I knew I made the right choice. Of our 5 cats, we have 2 cats that have some minor potty issues, and she had no issue with having to deal with them. She arrived Friday and each additional day on time, gave them treats on each Visit, sent pictures each visit of whoever decided to come out that day and gave love to whomever would accept it. Our cats are not 100% used to strangers but she was able to get a few of them to actually show their faces.. and they didn't run & hide. Renee is a true lifesaver and probably one of the best kitty sitters we've had, and I would fully trust her to watch my 5 babies again in the future!

Renee did a wonderful job taking care of Cooper and Leia for the first time! She was always on time, reliable, and kept us updated with messages and pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We really appreciate her care and communication. I highly recommend Renee and would absolutely book her again to take care of our pups!

Renee made sure our little guy had the best weekend! Got so many photos and updates and it was obvious that he felt so comfortable with her. Have already booked a return visit! Thanks so much Renee!

I can't say enough to praise Renee for her care and kindness! Renee was wonderful in communicating with me and sending pics of my baby several times a day. That certainly made me so comfortable while I was away. Renee is a rare person who really cares about her clients and our fur babies. She even made me cookies for our return. Love, love, love her!!!
