Experienced Dog Owner/Lover

I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a young child. I have small, medium, and large dog experience, experience with multiple dogs in the home, and experience with aging dogs. Friends and family have counted on me to watch, walk, play with, and feed their furry loved ones. I have experience at dog parks, and some treat-based training experience.

Robyn came and took care of my older cat with an illness for 1 week. My cat, Nyx, requires medicine twice a day and lots of cuddle time which Robyn provided equally. It was the second booking ive made with Robyn. Again everything was great, and my cat was happy and healthy upon my return. Highly reccomend! Robyn a great! Thank you!!!!

I hired Robin to watch my kitty, Nyx, for a long weekend. Nyx is a sweet lap cat with me but very shy and usually hides in the closet when my friends come over. With Robin she rolled on her belly and purred within the first moments of meeting her. It was so comforting to me. Robin knows how to be calm and gentle and the first night sent photos of Nyx on her lap. She was communicative and caring. Additionally, Nyx needs medication twice a day and Robin handled that easily too. I can't say enough great things about Robin or how she cared for my cat and I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Robyn was a fantastic dog and housesitter! She was extremely communicative and responsible, and took great care of our two dogs while we were away for Thanksgiving. I felt very comfortable leaving the pups with her and she left the house super clean. I would love to book her again in the future! Highly recommend.

Robyn has been a trusted cat sitter for me for years. The kindness she shows towards the canines and cats in her care is unmatched, and she can empathize with them and anticipate their needs as if they were human. She can gauge when it's too hot for a long stroll, when they want food, water, or pets, which environments cause more stress for the animals than others, when treats are well­ deserved, and she may even be able to read their minds, I don't know, I'm not a scientist. She is an animal-loving person. Her ability to care for any pet has been proven through a lifetime of animal ownership. In short, there is nobody else I would trust more with my dog or cat than her.

Robyn is a true animal lover. She goes out of her way to care for animals, whether they are her own pets or not. Many dogs and cats seem to sense a kindred spirit in her, and she treats them all like well cared-for friends. She has cared for my pets with compassion and tender loving care, and should I need a pet sitter, she would be the first person I would call. Strongly recommend!

Schedule

I’m currently not working and have a ton of flexibility for your fur babies, so we can have lots of walks, nap, or play time.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Robyn can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors I can account for. My preference is for dogs that can understand some commands and are not a bite-risk. If your cat gets overstimulated easily, that’s great to know! Etc.
