About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I currently have a Maine Coon cat and have lived with and cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to build trust with each one. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and will always treat your pets like they’re my own. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or just wants someone to keep them company, I’m committed to providing attentive and compassionate care. I work full-time during the week, so I’m available for evening visits and drop-ins after 5:00 PM Monday through Friday. On weekends, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I’ll always communicate promptly and do my best to work around your pet’s routine to provide consistent, reliable care. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I know that cats thrive on routine, so I’ll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, playtime, medication (if needed), and any special preferences. I’ll treat your home with respect, send photo updates during each visit, and make sure your cat feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

Reliable, trustworthy and caring. It was clear our baby girl was in great hands. We appreciated the daily communication, photos, and videos. It gave us complete peace of mind while we were away.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
