About: I’ve had animals as part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I currently share my home with an Australian Cattle Dog and two rescue cats, including a senior cat with special medical needs. Supporting her through her golden years has deepened my appreciation for the patience, compassion, and individualized care that every pet deserves. Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, and hamsters. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, young and active, or a senior who needs a little extra attention, I’m committed to providing care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. One of the advantages I offer is flexibility. I work remotely and can often bring my laptop with me, allowing me to spend more time with your pets during the day than many sitters can. I’m available for drop-in visits, pet sitting, companionship visits, and extended care while you’re away. I understand how important peace of mind is when you’re trusting someone with your beloved pet. I’m happy to provide regular updates through text messages, photos, videos, or phone calls—whatever helps you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is simple: to care for your pets as thoughtfully and lovingly as I care for my own. During Summer: I’m very flexible. Monday through Thursday - available all day Friday - 4:00pm to late night Saturday - available all day Sunday - available from noon to late night Every pet is unique, and I believe the best care starts with understanding their individual needs, routines, and personality. Before caring for your pet, I take time to learn about their feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, favorite activities, and any special instructions you would like me to follow. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible to help reduce stress and keep them comfortable. I make sure pets have fresh water, receive meals as instructed, get appropriate exercise and attention, and have a clean environment. I am also happy to provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel confident your pet is doing well while you’re away. When caring for pets in my home, safety is my top priority. I carefully monitor interactions, provide a calm and comfortable environment, and ensure pets have access to fresh water, appropriate exercise, and plenty of affection. I always follow owner instructions regarding feeding, medications, and routines. I am comfortable caring for senior pets, pets with special needs, and administering medications as directed. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, and overall well-being so that any concerns can be addressed promptly. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care and treat every pet as if they were my own.
