I am able to stay overnight for all House-Sitting bookings. Animal care is my passion and it is my priority to make as much time for my clients’ pets as possible.

Safety, trust & environment

I have experience with pet and babysitting, both of which have given me the skills to keep your home and your pet safe, comfortable, clean, and organized. I don't mind getting my hands dirty to keep yours clean! I also have experience in animal medicine for animals that require medication, special handling, and/or emergencies.

Information Willa J. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your pet requires any medication or special care. It would be beneficial for all parties involved if my clients would share specifics about their pet, such as favorite toys, activities, etc. It is imperative that I am aware of any aggression and/or triggers (food, stranger, barrier, etc.) beforehand.

A typical day

I enjoy training animals, discovering their favorite games and activities, and learning what relationships they prefer with humans. Every animal is different and I think it is very important to establish a relationship with my client before their pet to understand the animal’s quirks and comforts! My favorite activities to do with animals includes play time with or without toys, fetch, walking/hiking, and training.
