Loving & Caring Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Currently available for doggy housesits in Palm Springs only. I have been sitting and running dogs since my college years. I am a teacher. I grew up in the mountains of Oregon around wildlife and farms. I have experience with a variety of breeds, all ages and stages. I am happy to provide sitting for you while you are out and about, on vacation, and for any other time you need to be away from your pet(s). I have a close network of trainers, veterinarians, and groomers who lend their knowledge and assistance to me. I am available for Meet & Greets but they are not mandatory during COVID. My experience includes- Acquainting dogs for socialization, helping dogs through separation anxiety, assisting dogs in-training, administering shots and medications, and handling dogs with behavioral issues. I have also worked with adopted rescues and therapy dogs.

Sunshine is beyond incredible with dogs! Anyone can see this instantly by the interaction that takes place. Sunshine watched my German Shepherd Titan. I was sent hourly photos and movie clips. Titan was brushed when I picked her up and looked so happy.

Sunshine was amazing! She was super personal, kept us updated the entire time Robin was staying with her, and was even super flexible with our pick up and drop off times! I couldn’t recommend her enough! She definitely is a 5-star sitter!

Safety, trust & environment

I follow the same training routine your pet is accustomed to at home with you, whether in daycare, walks, boarding, or in housesitting. I can implement any additional training needed, only if desired by pet parent(s). I am sensitive to the needs of your pet and equally to the pet parent(s) to maintain consistency with handling. I sit with safety in mind first, prevention and preplanning to provide a canine safe environment and stress-free time away for you.
