Pet care experience
College Student Who Loves Pets
I’ve been pet sitting for friends and family since I was around 11, primarily during holidays and summer breaks. I care for both dogs and cats through drop-in visits and overnight stays. My experience includes feeding, walks, playtime, letting pets out, and cleaning litter boxes while keeping pets comfortable in their normal routines. I love taking dogs on walks and giving animals plenty of attention and care. I’m reliable, responsive, and communicate quickly, so pet owners can feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away.

Safety, trust & environment
Due to my apartment’s no-pet policy, I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes. I am very respectful of each home and make sure it stays clean, organized, and well cared for while you’re away. I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine by following all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific needs you request. I enjoy spending quality time with pets through play, attention, brushing, and exercise, and I can also assist with bathing if requested. I never hesitate to text or call owners if there is an issue or just to provide updates, so you can feel confident that your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
Ratings and reviews
Thank you for taking care of of our boys!
Did an amazing job with our cats! Brought in our mail and packages while we were gone. Really appreciated that she got all 3 cats in the check in pics throughout the week.
Winter is the best dog and cat sitter ever. I never have to worry when she comes over to watch both of my dogs as well as 2 cats! She makes sure to play with each of them and gives them so much love and attention.
She loves dogs! She is a reliable, responsible and loving care giver. My Aussie loved her. She was always excited to see her. That was a great comfort. If my dog wasn't treated right... I'd know by how she responded. My dog needs to be active or she gets into trouble! Nice to see my house in one piece after Winter was in charge. What a relief to know I was leaving my dog in good hands.
Winter is very responsible and trustworthy. I’ve dog/cat sit with Winter shes always on top of feeding times, play/walk time, and any needs the animals might have. All animals love her just as she loves them. She has also dog sit for my 2 dogs while my family was out of town. She was always dependable and responded swiftly. She played with them all weekend and they love whenever Winter comes around.
Winter has watched our dogs and cats for years now when we go on vacations throughout the year. She is dependable and always makes sure our fur babies are taken care of. We have always come home to happy pets. She is super friendly and caring. She is great at communication throughout the time she is watching them. It’s not easy to find someone you feel safe with in your home with your pets but I know they are always in good hands. Highly recommend Winter.
Calendar and availability
Schedule
As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I have one class Monday through Friday from 6:00- 8:00 PM, which means I’m available throughout the mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnight for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. For house sitting, I can also complete my online coursework or Zoom classes from your home, allowing me to spend more time with your pets and provide consistent companionship and supervision. I’m reliable, punctual, and always work around a pet’s normal routine to help them stay comfortable and stress-free while you’re away.
