Pet care experience

Love to love your pets!

I am a long term regular pet and housesitter. I have owned and raised several cats and dogs, horses, various farm animals, birds, bunnies, guinea pigs, fish and reptiles throughout my lifetime and am an avid pet lover. I am a part time self employed private Holistic Health Educator/Counselor working from home over the phone. I am also a full time house and petsitter and am a compassionate vegetarian. I have a love for all animals and began caring for a small hobby ranch I grew up on, having farm animals, caring for my own horse. I also raised cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, fish and bunnies and have a love for all animals. I am confident to handle situations with calmness and compassion. I have made some wonderful furry friends that all have a special place in my heart.

Sandra did a great job house sitting with my pup and cats. She is very professional and a real animal lover. I really felt safe leaving my babies with her. Highly recommended!

Sandra was a wonderful sitter for my pup, Delta! She sent lots of photo updates and she and Delta quickly bonded and became buddies. I would recommend Sandra to anyone who needs a pet sitter!

Highly Recommend Sandra! Sandra was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. She responded quickly and thoroughly to all of my inquiries and questions, and she happily scheduled a meet-and-greet. During the visit, both Sandra and her fiancé David spent time getting to know us and our dogs. We immediately felt comfortable with them and knew our pets and home would be in great hands. Throughout the house sit, Sandra continued to be an excellent communicator. She sent daily photos and videos, asked thoughtful questions when needed, and responded to my messages right away. We returned home to two very happy dogs and a spotless house — everything was exactly as we left it. We couldn’t be happier with the care Sandra and David provided. They are trustworthy, kind, and truly attentive. We would book them again in a heartbeat and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable pet and house sitting services!

Sandra and her fiance David took great care of Bix and the strays that we feed, as well as our pond fish, plants and house while we were away for 5 days. Left the house spotless!

Sandra and her husband David were an amazing find. I had a last minute cancelation that left me and my senior dibetic pup in a bind. She was able to come over on a short notice and fill in. It was a new situation for me and my pup as he can be very quirky being a husky and I normally have people who know him and I watch him due to his ability to read and work a room well. He's very smart. Sandra was able to accommodate his and my needs and even was able to handle a stressful situation with calmness and help assure me that my pup was in good hands. I really appreciated her patience with mg senior just pup who still has all the spunk and attitude he had as a pup just moves a little slower. Thank you for taking such good care of Marely and keeping me updating along the way. What could have been a very stressful situation turned out alright and I will definitely reach out to Sandra and David again. Thank You
