Pet care experience

Professional/Best Pet Care in Town!

If you asked my mom when I was 6, she knew I’d own a barn full of animals. I’m traditionally trained in veterinary and biological sciences. I got a degree in it. I worked as a veterinary tech for 2 years. I’ve worked with animals-dogs,cats, bunnies, lizards, etc.- of all sizes for over 10 years with varying needs and diets. I have 2 sweet , healthy, loving pit bulls dogs of my own- one puppy and a senior (our golden girl). I’ll treat your dogs like my own with love, proper discipline, kindness and all their needs taken care of. And trust me I’ve handled it all. Anxious cat that needs reassurance and daily medications? Elderly dog with hip problems or recovering from surgery? A young pup who has to be played with every hour? I’m here for the job.

Safety, trust & environment

All pets/fur babies are cared with love and kindness. During walks, dogs are properly leashes and properly redirected if needed. If pets get into a bit of mischief, I handle appropriately- whether it’s need a redirection, properly caged/time to calm down or simply some enrichments. I’m very alert and observing, I’ll know what behavior your might be displaying to signal what the best for them in the safest way possible.

Rudi was amazing with our 5-month old puppy! She took the time to get to know him and all his quirks, and even provided us with a bunch of training tips for him for our return! Extremely patient, communicative, and thorough. We would absolutely use her again for Nuke!

Rudi is wonderful with my reactive pup, Gus. She slows things down, is knowledgeable about training and reads him very well. So glad we found her! Highly recommend.

Rudi was SO attentive to our two kitties. She was also so communicative and send so many pics! She followed any instructions to a T and left the apartment really tidy and clean. She is definitely becoming our go-to cat sitter. I think the cats were almost a little disappointed when we came home. We had to find someone last second over July 4th week and Rudi was a godsend for multiple readons!!

Rudi is not only an experienced and compassionate caregiver, but a lovely person as well. Her updates were often and her feedback was thorough , including lots of photo’s. My beloved cat was well cared for and I can wholeheartedly recommend Rudi if you seek quality animal care.

Rudi is my go-to catsitter and I know I can put my mind at ease when she's taking care of my cats. She's great at taking care of the cats, keeps me updated on how they are doing, and both cats always warm up to her right away.

We love Rudi!! Rudi took care of house, dog, and two cats during our 10 day honeymoon. Everyone was so happy when we returned and the house was pristine (prob better than we left it after the crazy wedding weekend). She sent tons of pictures and updates and we could tell everyone was happy, healthy, and enjoying hanging out with her. Rudi is our very favorite pet sitter and we’ll continue to use her for our travels. Highly highly recommend.

All pets are unique. Let me know the following about your pet: their needs, what they like or dislike, medications they take, walking and bathroom schedule, if they get along with other pets, aggression level, food aggression, favorite treats and anything that makes them feel comfortable and safe at all times.
