“Demin is a wonderful sitter. Not only did she make me feel comfortable leaving my kitten for the first time, but she consistently updating me on how she was, what she was up to, and her other care needs. My kitten, Mocha, was very comfortable with her. I would definitely rehire her again when I need a sitter!”

About: I have experience caring for pets and understand the importance of providing them with patience, attention, and a safe environment. My responsibilities have included feeding pets according to their schedules, providing fresh water, taking dogs for walks, cleaning up after them, and giving them plenty of exercise and companionship. I am comfortable following specific care instructions and paying close attention to each pet’s individual needs and behavior. I am dependable, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. After spending 33 years working in corporate America, I am excited to begin a new chapter in life—one centered around spending more time with animals and providing them with loving, dependable care. I developed a strong sense of responsibility, reliability, patience, and attention to detail. I understands the importance of being trustworthy and following through on commitments, qualities that are just as important when caring for someone’s beloved pets. Now retired, I have the time and flexibility to give pets the attention, companionship, exercise, and care they deserve. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and creating a safe, comfortable environment where they can feel happy and relaxed. For me, pet care is more than simply a responsibility—it’s an opportunity to enjoy the companionship of animals while giving their owners peace of mind that their pets are in caring and capable hands. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. My loft provides a clean, comfortable, and welcoming environment where pets can relax and feel at home. When your pet stays with me, you can feel confident knowing they’re receiving attentive, loving care in a safe home away from home. My goal is simple: for you to have peace of mind and for your pet to feel loved, secure, and comfortable.

This was my first time leaving my 13 week old puppy by herself and I could not have felt more relaxed knowing that she was in your care. Thank you so much Eunice, I will definitely be rebooking!”

About: I have had cats, dogs, fish, and a chinchilla since I was 10 years old, so I truly take care of pets like they're people! I work from Monday to Thursday full time (7am - 5:30pm), so I am free during weekday evenings. Otherwise, I am free from Friday to Sunday! I live in a safe, managed apartment and I have two cats. I can easily move my cats to another room to avoid conflict between our pets.
