Pet care experience

Animal lover, flexible schedule!

I have grown up with animals and currently volunteer at the AWLF animal rescue. Time with animals is a treat for me. I have an affinity and understanding of cats and their multiple personalities :) I am able to administer pills to cats/dogs most of the time, also have experience injecting medication via needle. I am a distance runner so walks/ playtime with your pup is perfect for me. I also have experience with bunnies. I am an advocate for giving pets a safe atmosphere and reading their cues. I know time away from their parents can cause stress, I am here to help.

Whitney is absolutely amazing! She is kind, patient, understanding and loving. My dog loves her and is never stressed out with her because he can feel her love for animals. Whitney is excellent about keeping me updated consistently throughout the day and I could see how happy my dog was in the daily pictures she sent. I will continue to use Whitney because I know she truly cares about my pup and will give him the best care!

Whitney has been a wonderful pet sitter for my bearded dragon and dog several times. She’s always responsive and reliable, can not recommend her enough!

Whitney is the BEST! She watched my 2 cats and kept me updated every day. There were no problems but I know if she ran into any issues she would have them solved and would not hesitate to reach out and make sure everything is done correctly!

Safety, trust & environment

In the clients home I will respect boundaries set and lead with love in you & your pets home. I am happy to go on walks, to the dog park, vet if needed, etc. If an extended stay is necessary I can accommodate to work from your home on my laptop. I have my own transportation and am flexible for drop ins. I have a maine coon cat that is the king of my house. I can watch your pet at my house but your pet would be in a confined level of my home away from my kitty. I would make accommodations for them and accompany them at all times. I have a fenced in small yard and sidewalks/dog parks nearby.

Pets

A typical day

Beyond the standard backyard/walk, I am open to exploring neighborhood trails, dog parks, walks by the Monocacy River, Baker park. I am a Hood College alum and am very familiar with the area. I am happy to have play time so let me know if their favorite toys. If your animal is a cuddler so am I! If your animal is more stagnant and needs a slower pace, I am happy to accommodate that.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Whitney can host up to 2 pets per night
Let me know of your animals likes/dislikes, temperament, and any stressors or triggers for them. I would like to take note of any dietary restrictions, medications, feeding schedule, etc. I will do my best to create the safest atmosphere for them. Let me know your expectations and I will be extremely diligent!
