Pet care experience

Animal Lover - dependable.

I am a teacher, life long pet owner and mother of two children ages 14 & 17. My passion for pets shows in the TLC I provide. I can care for your dog(s) and cat(s) while you are away from home. Currently, I own a rescue cat, and have owned dogs from puppyhood to senior years - providing treatment and care including medications that varied with their age or health. I always perform the best care for all pets entrusted to me. I will take the time for us all to get to know each other and feel comfortable. Feel at peace knowing your pet(s) will be in a loving environment when you confirm a booking with me:).

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

During the last 40 years, I have owned kittens that became cats and puppies that became adult dogs - I understand the requirements needed to care for various pets. Growing up I always had a family pet. In my young adulthood I owned 2 dogs for 13 years, and currently own a rescue cat with my family - I know the care I desired for my pets when I/we were traveling or away from home, and will provide the same high standards for you while you are away.

Tina did an excellent job taking care of our cat, Leo who is normally very shy but warmed up to her immediately!

Tina is great with our new puppy. Always on time and very flexible if needed. I’m glad we found someone to help out.

Tina always goes above and beyond to make sure my cats are well taken care of when I'm away. She sends multiple pictures to me during her visits which makes me feel so much better about leaving them.

Tina has been phenomenal in taking care of our dog Maisie. She is so communicative and thorough and I felt like I had nothing to worry about in terms of Mae being looked after. She sent multiple pictures of Maisie and how she was doing throughout each drop in visit. I highly recommend Tina and we will be booking with her again in the future! Thank you so much, Tina. I know this was a last minute booking but you were so accommodating and understanding. We truly appreciate it!

Tina was great with our cat Wally. She was very attentive and gave us lots of updates on how he was doing.

Schedule

Routine is incredibly important for pets and I will follow through with the owner's directions and schedules. I have been a substitute school teacher for preschoolers through highschool, while currently am in elementary school - having schedules, routine, exercise, bathroom breaks, safety, care, fun, meals/water/snacks are all important. These are my duties of my job with children/students and I will provide the same responsibilities and care with your pet(s).

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Tina can host up to 8 drop-ins per day
I will follow your instructions. I plan to take your direction and apply it to the time I spend with your pet to make sure they are most comfortable. Do you reside in home/apartment? Fenced yard? Are there medical issues / medication? Aggression? Possessive? Does your dog get along with other dogs, people, and children? Triggers to avoid? Housebroken? Neutered/spayed? Additional info: behavior, preferences, tendencies? *I collect used towels, blankets, and bedsheets for local Animal Shelters in the area. If you would like to donate any, I will wash/dry and deliver them to our local animal shelters. Thank you! *Yes! I do offer a referral discount:). Please have your referral person(s) mention your name at the time of their booking(s). You will receive $5 off per referral towards your next booking with me. Thank you!
