About: Over 10 years of experience with cats and dogs. I am clean, quiet, and will keep your pets safe. I am flexible depending on your pets’ needs (walks, no walks, feedings, meds, little box cleaning). The more I know about your pet, the better I can care for them. So please share as much detail as you’d like about your pets! I have one cat of my own right now, but have watched cats, dogs, and even birds. I am extremely flexible with dates/times. I can accommodate frequent walks or letting your pets out to go to the bathroom. I will be present and engaged with your pets while you are away and treat them like my own! I am willing to stay in your home or do drop-ins. I am not able to allow your pet into my home as my cat is very selective with who I bring in. I am clean and pick up after myself.. you don’t have to worry about the place being a mess when you get home.
“We’re so grateful we found Kalea. She stayed in our home and took amazing care of our two Labs while we were away over the 4th of July. She stuck to their routine, which really helped keep them calm and happy, especially during a stressful time. It was obvious they got tons of love and attention while we were gone. We came home to two very content pups! We’ll definitely be booking with her again — highly recommend!”
“Jaclyn was so kind and loving to my animals, I barely thought about them knowing they were in such good hands! She was respectful and gave me a lot of updates (pictures). Would definitely book again! Thanks ?”

In the summers I am a giraffe attendant at a wildlife park & my past two years at school I have worked at a dairy farm. I am currently a student at Delaware Valley University. I am also a student athlete, I run cross country & track & field. So my schedule varies weekly. But I have lots of flexibility to make visits. I will treat all pets like they are my own. I will meet all the requirements the owners ask of me & make their animal my number one priority when I am with them.
