“I am so thankful that I found Season! She is so professional and I really felt secure with her taking care of my 19 year old cat. He had a pancreatitis flare up right before I had to leave on a business trip, and she proactively noticed he needed some medication, called me to discuss it, and gave it to him without a problem. She is thorough and clearly loves animals. It is clear why she has so many repeat clients I am booking her again for my trip next month!”

“Kelsey was wonderful with my cat, Luna! I left for 6 days and Kelsey was great about coming around the same time, spending quality time with Luna during her visit and even went above and beyond by bringing in my trash can and stopping a beeping fire alarm!

About: I actually currently work part-time at a doggy day care and boarding facility and I absolutely love working with dogs! I have experience with anything from nails and baths to administering medications and everything in between. I am very used to following very detailed care plans, I am comfortable with any task! In addition to this, I have my own 7 year old black lab mix which I’ve had the privilege of adopting and raising since he was a puppy, as well as a 6 year old tortie cat who I also adopted as a kitten and have loved them both ever since! I'm currently working part-time however I am fully available before or after work, as well as any days I may have off! I have the ability to change my schedule if need be as well! I understand sometimes it can be hard to trust others with your pets let alone in your home but I go into every service with such a high level of patience and respect for your home and your pets. I genuinely will follow any routine you leave for me in terms of your household and your pets. Whether it be watering plants, maintaining things around your home, taking dogs for walks at particularly scheduled times if it’s what they’re used to, etc. I will ALWAYS treat your pets with patience and understanding, there are so many cats/dogs that just innately have anxiety and to add the aspects of their family being away as well as someone they may be new to entering their home can definitely cause extra stress on your pets. Whatever is necessary to make your babies feel more comfortable while you are away, I will always comply! As well, I have experience administering medications and following very detailed regimens to both cats and dogs. I will follow any care plans you leave for me, it is so important to me that your babies are well taken care of! I will always leave your home in a clean condition or at the very least in the exact condition it was left in, no one wants to come home from a trip and have to worry about coming back to any kind of mess. I sadly would not be able to care for pets in my own home as I have a large dog in my home and he is very friendly, but for the safety of your pets and my own I would prefer to care for your pets in your home. As well, it’s important that I note my dog has multiple people in my home who are always present and taking care of him so I would have no need to ever be running back and forth if you book with me - I am definitely able to give your pets as much time, care, and attention as you would like! I am almost always able to adjust my schedule to accommodate any request.
