Pets are family too!

Pet care experience

I’ve had large dogs my entire life (60 pounds and over) and I have experience with anxious and hyperactive pups. I’ve trained puppies, taken care of sick and elderly dogs, and I’ve rescued two street dogs who had never had contact with people. I am a strong walker who can handle the push and pull of the leash on an excited pup. As a full time college student with two rescue dogs with special needs, a rescue cat, and foster kitten, I assure you that your fuzzy friends are safe with me! I’m currently available all day on the weekends and after 12pm on weekdays. I have cared for both dogs and cats overnight at clients homes for years. I can crate your dogs if need be as well as administer any medications. I will make sure your pets are safe and cared for while also making sure your home is always locked and secure!

Good communication each time she visited our dog. She fed her and walked her and play with her a little bit during each check-in. She made sure to leave lights on for her during the night. She even handled a noisy alarm that was going off in the house while we were gone. Would greatly recommend and will be booking her in future times.

Shea was great! She took good care of my two kits for a week. I was very pleased that my more skidish kitty warmed up to her, that was evidence enough that she was kind and patient with her. I received daily reports, photos, and she went the extra mile keeping my place tidy and watering our plants. She did a fantastic job, we look forward to using her services in the future!

Thank you for the excellent and thoughtful care you've given my kitties!! It's great to be away & feel confident they are in good hands.

Shea was a delight and my kitties took to her immediately - a true miracle. Once they snuggled up to her I was 100% confident they were in great hands. I look forward to entrusting Shea for future caretaking of my little dingdongs
