I make sure they have fresh food and water, take them out for potty breaks or walks, and spend time playing and giving them love. I also keep things clean and safe while you’re away.

About: I worked as a petcare professional for Nestlé Purina as my most recent job. I am trained to notice any odd behaviors, as well as on how to keep pets happy and stimulated! I am currently a shadow for a few different vets throughout the week, and do pet/house sittings on days off or weekends. I am always looking for more pet care opportunities. I am able to offer care in your own home so that your pet feels like they are just going about their regular routine. This helps prevent some anxiety for the pet, and can alleviate yours as well as you won’t have to worry about your home while you’re away.
“Ingrid spent a lot of time interacting with my four dogs at every visit. She made sure they had plenty of outside playtime. One was a newly rescued stray that although lovable was quite a handful. She was completely unfazed. The dogs finished every visit with her happy and relaxed. She took care of the cats also and even my shy kitty warmed up to her. I will definitely use Ingrid again for our next trip.”

Follow instructions left by the pet owner to keep pets on their schedule and routine.

About: I am currently an ER veterinary technician and have been in veterinary medicine for the past 6 years. Taking care of animals is top priority in my every day life at work and outside of work as I do have a fur baby of my own. I am very experienced in pet care ranging from puppy/kitten care to senior care. I am also capable of administering any oral medications or injections to pets that have medical needs as well. I have always had a passion and love for animals ever since I was a young girl. I strive to give all pets the best care that I can possibly provide for them. I work full time as an overnight ER veterinary technician. I am available for drop in visits Sunday-Tuesday and I have more time throughout the day on Wednesday-Saturday. I prefer to care for pets within their own environment. Pets often become very stressed being outside of their own routine and space as it is not within their comfort level.

Karlee C.
“Karlee has always been a great pet care taker. She has had quite a few cats and they were all well taken care of. I have worked with Karlee many times dog sitting and she was very fun to work with and is very helpful. We took the dogs on walks wrong the neighborhood, gave them breakfast and dinner on time and played with them in the backyard. Karlee would even get up in the middle of the night if the dogs had to go outside. I’ve know Karlee for a long time and she has picked up any animal she has seen on the side of the road. She is very reliable and very independent but gets along well with others. She is a great candidate for this job.”
