Although my husband and I are parents to two fiesty cats these days, I grew up around plenty of dogs. My mother managed dog boarding facilities, so I got a lot of experience bathing and walking dogs and pet sitting overnight at clients' homes. My family also has a background working with animal rescues. I've fostered dogs and cats and can easily handle medications, complicated foods or any other special needs. I've bottle-fed newborn kittens and I've gently helped senior dogs with weak back legs get around. Your pet will be safe with me, but also comfortable. I'm willing to spend the time and do the little things that will make your fur-baby feel like you're there with them. We never want our pets to stress out, and I'm here to help, whether that means massaging their legs, making special meals or tucking them in before bed. As a bonus, I'm a photographer and will send you high-quality photos of your pet while you're away! Call it a keepsake for my services :) OPTIONAL ADD-ON: I offer house-cleaning services during overnight stays. Come back from vacation or your work trip to a clean home! Ask in messaging for details.
