Safety, trust & environment

I plan to follow all household routines that you have already set up for your pet. Please let me know what works best for your pet so it would be an easy transition when I get started!

Information Shay W. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to know your pets' preferences for toys to play with and pets to receive. Do they love to snuggle or do they want some scratches? Do they prefer treats or quality time? Knowing these things ahead of time helps me understand their needs.

A typical day

I excel in finding enriching ways to play with pets. Whether it is playing fetch or chase or using puzzle toys to get treats, I enjoy finding various ways to stimulate their brains!

Pet care experience

I have 2 cats that we adopted from a rescue organization. While I don't have formal experience in pet sitting, I am currently a special education therapist and work with kids ages 2-5. I have been in the field for over 15 years already! I am a warm and caring individual while being able to set clear expectations for kids and pets to follow. I am also a single parent to my kids, now ages 11 and 14.

Shay is a mother of 2 cats. and a special education therapist. They are highly qualified with an excellent way of discipline and gentleness to all animals. Im sure all animals would love to have shay around, as they are loving, and firm. When working around kids and having cats, shay is the best choice you can have for a pet sitter.

Shay is amazing! They are an amazing cat caretaker, and they just show so much love and affection for their cats. I just can't describe how much work they put to get the cats to listen, behave, and enjoy themselves!
