Animal loving mother and wife

Pet care experience

I've loved animals as long as I can remember. My first pet was my cat Tiger back in Germany when I was 7 years old. Having a cat to take care of tought me responsibility at a young age. I am very dependable and punctual and always put my pets and family first. Once I married my husband we rescued 2 cats named Spooky and Smokey. Shortly after we got our first Dog Rocci (Black Lab-Rottweiler mix) and then rescued Gunnar and Becky (German shepherd-Chow mix, brother and sister). We recently adopt a cat named Dolly from the Surry shelter. I've been helping friends and neighbors watching their pets when they are out of town or at work for the past few years. I'm available starting at 08:00am after I drop my daughter of for school and my last visit could be anytime before 10pm. It would be important for me to keep your pet in their normal routine. I'd also be happy to watch your cats or other pets including Chickens and farm animals. I’m experienced with administering medications including shots. Looking forward to meeting you and your Fur Babies soon....

Sandra was wonderful! We left our cats for two weeks and Sandra stopped by twice a day to feed and care for them. She kept us fully updated with pictures and messages throughout our trip giving us peace of mind. She even watered the indoor plants and brought in an unexpected (and very heavy) package. I feel fortunate that I’ve found someone I can trust to take care of my kitties when I travel! We will definitely be using her in the future!

Sandra was the best! She has great communication and great punctuation! She gave my two fur babies lots of love and I highly recommend her to anyone look for care. Thank you so much Sandra for taking care of Yondu and Bentley while we were away.

Sandra was amazing with our two shy kitties! She was extremely helpful and communicative with us about her visits. She also took pictures of the kitties and other useful things, which made us feel like our kitties were in good hands. I would recommend Sandra to anyone going on a trip and needs a periodic cat sitter! ? ❤
