About: I am a huge animal lover! I grew up with dogs and cats and almost every pet I’ve had was a rescue. I started pet sitting my neighbor’s dogs when I was 14. I took a break for a while then started back up about 3 years ago. I have several neighbors and family friends who’s cats and dogs I take care of when their owners are away. I do have experience in taking care of pets young and old. I currently work most weekdays but I’m typically available after 1pm. Anytime a walk or play date is needed, I’m available. I have no problem with overnights or extended stays. My weekends are open as well! I have a fenced in yard if I need to bring your fur baby to my house. I have three cats who are friendly but one is a little territorial. If you have a fenced in yard, I watch your pet the whole time they are outside. I can crate your pet if need be as well. If you pet loves to play, I take the time to play with them as much as possible!

About: I was born into a home with canine sisters and grew up with both cats and dogs. While I love all sorts of dogs, I have spent most of my life caring for cats. I also have training in cat and dog first aid. I'm a professor, and I travel to RI once per week. The remainder of the time, I work from home, libraries, and cafes, so I have plenty of time to hang out and play with your kitties or pups. I can also take breaks for walks throughout the day, as I mostly set my own schedule. I will interact with your fur babies on their own terms. For kitties, this might mean lots of cuddling and playing or hanging out and talking from across the room until they feel comfortable with me. I send pictures and updates at least once from every visit. Most of my recent dog experience with dogs has been with friends' pitties, which has always involved playing a lot. I am unfortunately unable to board animals at this timem
