Pet care experience

Zookeeper & Pet Sitter

I’m excited at the opportunity to take care of your pets! Here is a little bit about me. My pet sitting career began when I was a kid taking care of my neighbors & friend’s pets. My first job was working at a dog board & train kennel facility. While working there I developed dog training and general care skills for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. My passion for animals then led me to pursue a B.S. in Animal Science and while in school I worked as a veterinary assistant at a local vet clinic and did a few internships at various Zoos, where I learned how to care for wild animals! Through those internships I found my full-time zookeeping job. As an animal care professional, you can trust that I will take the best care of your fur babies. Whether your pet is old & calm or young & wild, I’m excited to meet them & care for them while you are away.

I've had a lot of sitters in my days, and Robin is one of the best. She has a lot of love for your animal and does things with them as well. She takes them on walks, car rides and shares them with her friends as well. I know my Ginger misses her and her cats. I can tell my dog had a good time there and would love to see Robin and her cats again. I would recommend anyone to use Robin as your animal sitter and I will always have her watch my animals. She is a true five star sitter and I can see her as my friend and my new long time animal sitter. She works at the zoo, so that tells you how much she loves animals and it shows. I was in a bind, and needed a sitter fast. She responded fast and took my dog the next day. I felt comfortable with Robin to drop her off without a meet and greet, we just didn't have the time, but it all worked out great !!! Thank you Robin

Robin was excellent! Our poodle took to her immediately and all her pictures showed her happy and relaxed. Communication with Robin was easy and we will definitely use her again!

Robin was amazing! Winter seemed to have loved her time staying with her. She sent me updates and photos during my trip. She kept Winter to her schedule and provided easy pickup and drop off. Will definitely be a repeat customer!

Robin is a terrific sitter for our pups! Her attention to detail and love for our fur babies really shows. She was punctual, took them on nice long walks, and sent plenty of updates! Will absolutely use her again for our next trip.

Schedule

I have a full time job, but I am happy to drop in on your pets before or after work! Evening visits or walks would work best but I can also visit early in the morning if you prefer. My days off rotate throughout the month so I have flexible availability for longer visits or weekday walks.
