Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced & Reliable (+ Remote)
Top 3 Things To Know: - I only accept sits 3+ nights or longer - I look for decently calm and relaxed animals since I work remotely and have frequent calls - I look for pet sits with animals that are good with kids (I have a 7+ year old nephew who LOVES pets and playing with them! It's important for me to have more time with him, so I'm aligning my calendar and time with that preference.) Please feel free to continue reading if we're a match so far! ✨ As someone who grew up with an array of animals and care for many of them. Some of them being multiple dogs, multiple cats, 25+ chickens, birds, lizards, fish, and much more! I've also assisted in farm work, volunteered at animal sanctuaries and helped care for goats, geese, ducks, chickens, cats, and more. Over the years, I have done farm care, cared for elderly senior dogs, young puppy care, and general care animals. Equally important, as someone who works remotely and will be able to be in the home most of the time. Which makes potty breaks, play time, and any other pet needs much easier. Plus it reduces a lot of animal anxieties! Because of be working remotely, animals that are more on the quiet side are definitely preferred because I have frequent video calls. Also ones that are 100% potty trained or wear diapers also preferred. Thank you 😊 When I House & Dog Sit: I do have a preference on the sits that I choose. I'm someone who needs a clean place (not smelly or has infestations), I'd also appreciate the animals being groomed/washed/teeth rushed before I assist (I'm not a certified professional groomer and it's considerate 💖). Overall, I do best with mellow and calm animals, such as small/medium dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, farm animals, and more. Please feel free to ask, I'm happy to answer!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Caring for animals typically looks like morning walks/potty time, then breakfast, and some play time before I start my work day or getting myself ready. Plus, take care of whatever else they need. Mid-day, around lunch time, I'd take my lunch break, do another potty break for them, play with them, maybe do some tricks and treats, etc. Later in the evening, after getting done with work, I'd decompress and begin to make us both dinner. Along with another potty break, play, tricks, etc. Then again before bed all of the things mentioned above. Plus, cuddles throughout the day and taking care of any medication needs, cuddles, and whatever else they may need. ⭐ For your safety and trust, I respect all religions, political beliefs, and respect all people regardless of gender and ethnicity. May peace, love of all kinds, and respect be the answer. ✨
Ratings and reviews
Serenity was a great caretaker for my Minsk! She was communicative, thoughtful about the house and plants, and flexible when we needed to do key handover etc. I would fully trust her to come back and take care of Minsk anytime
Serenity always goes above and beyond taking care of our dog & our house - we come home to it looking better than before, and a happy pup!
Our second time working with Serenity, and we’re just as happy as the first time! She is very punctual and communicative, left the house in great shape, and Theo seemed to have a treat time with her! Even for an Aussie, she exercised him well and he’s been napping all afternoon since we get home. Highly recommend Serenity!
Serenity is a wonderful communicator who made us feel at ease, house sitting and taking care of our furry ones! She was very kind and even took time and energy to leave the house better than she found it! I hope to have many more bookings with Serenity in the future!
Serenity was an amazing guest in our house with our two dogs. She played ball with Bodhi, (our high-energy, 90lb lab) every day in the yard. Kept my plants & garden alive, made sure Beckett (our 20lb rabbit-hunting doodle with a daily hairdo routine) got a 1:1 walk each day. The dogs were returned to us freshly bathed and our home cleaner than we left it. 10/10 recommend Serenity for a home stay. She works from home and provides thoughtful care during the work day.
Serenity was a truly above & beyond sitter! Theo had tons of 1-1 play time and attention, and really seemed to take to her from the first meeting - I felt 100% comfortable with him in her care and knew he was well taken care of. Serenity was also a fantastic communicator, was super flexible as start/end times shifted, she sent lots of fun updates, and went above and beyond taking care of our home/plants/fish, leaving everything in immaculate condition. Already booked for the next stay - can't recommend her enough!

Schedule
As someone who works remotely, I'm able to be fairly flexible in the routine of what's needed. Generally, I work for around 4–5 days a week, caring for the animals in the morning, during breaks, and in the evenings. Then for the weekends I'm either traveling around the space/city/outdoors or doing self-care and caring for the animals similarly before or after, throughout the day. I keep their potty break needs in mind and schedule my plans around it. Technically we are considered independent business owners/contractors here. For next steps, I offer a complimentary video call to answer questions, talk, and discuss the sit to see if we're a good fit. 🦴🐾 I look forward to caring for your little baby!! ✨ Time Ranges: I also usually do 3+ minimum day dog sits and don't usually do anything less because of the time, energy, and effort that's goes into meeting, caring, and setting up my work stuff. Please keep this in mind. 🙏🏼

- Overall a full breakdown of what's needed for each of the pets, pet names, medications, additional care steps, tricks they do, the pet's routine and anything I need to know about your home or pet. For home boarding - I need them to be dropped off, all supplies given/shared in a bag (food/water dishes, leash, collar or harness, toys, treats, meds, brushes, etc.), and groomed beforehand please. When getting ready to house sit - I need the wifi speed, wifi access, getting mail steps, access to the home, food locations, favorite parks/walk locations, toy spots, etc.
