Pet care experience

Devoted, gentle care for your pet.

Animals have been an integral part of my life for as long as I can remember—from growing up around my family’s German Shepherd breeding and training work, to years of rescuing and fostering both dogs and cats. I can provide continuous supervision, regular potty and play breaks, and plenty of outdoor exercise tailored to each dog's energy level and temperament. My home currently includes one calm, dog-friendly resident cat, making for a peaceful, low-stress environment where guest dogs receive focused care and affection. I have worked with senior dogs and cats as well as puppies and kittens. I am experienced with administering medications and experienced with disabled dogs.

Renita is wonderful with animals. She is kind, caring and very responsible. She has had pets pretty much all of her life and has cared for a range including birds, gerbils, cats and dogs. She treats each pet with attention specific to that pet's needs. She easily forms bonds with the animals she cares for. Renita can be relied upon and will give any animal in her care love and attention.

Renita has been a wonderful caretaker to my two cats when I travel. She has a wonderful way with animals and immediately put my cats at ease, even my fierce female cat. I would highly recomend her for any need a dog or cat owner may have.

With dogs, I love to walk. I live near a beautiful nature trail and a lake. No matter what the weather is, we love being outside. With cats, I have a box of toys. Various motorized toys and cat wands. I also have a large door that faces a tree with lots of birds and squirrels to watch.
