Mom & teacher who LOVES animals!

Pet care experience

Please read entire profile and do not hesitate to ask any questions: I have had pets of all kinds my whole life. I love to play with and pamper my own pets: a goofy long-legged pit bull and four feisty house cats, plus some small caged animals and backyard fowl! I enjoy meeting new animals and I am super patient— in addition to my own pets (dog, cats, parakeets, snake, turtle, chickens & ducks) and 2 teenaged kids, I am also a Special Ed Pre-K teacher! For house-sitting, I do NOT stay overnight except in extenuating circumstances-- I will instead drop in 3 times a day, including early morning and late evening, for feedings and/or walks. I can also care for your cats, ferrets, rodents, reptiles, chickens and/or ducks while you are away— just ask for rates. Sometimes I bring one of my kids or my husband along for walks or visits, especially at night-- I hope this is okay... Please see "Additional Rates" tabs for multiple animal, holiday, and extended stay pricing.

Rhonda took such great care of my cat Gimli, and on short notice too! She really loves our animals just as much as they love her! She also is very easy to communicate with and follows instructions to the T. Don’t hesitate to hire her!

Rhonda has always done a fantastic job looking after our cats when we go away for a weekend. She also takes the best photos and keeps us updated on their shenanigans!

Rhonda was amazing as always. So attentive to my cat and always took the time to play with him and refresh his litter / food /water. He’s usually really nervous around people but he always comes around for Rhonda. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter!
