Introduction
Caring and professional services, dog walking, pet and house sitting, errand running, light cooking, light housekeeping, and eldercare. I am easy-going, caring, and able to dispense just about any kind of medication needed. I love animals and think that they all deserve as much attention as possible. When I care for someone's pet, I treat them better than my own and it's like they become a member of my family. I also enjoy taking care of homes and making sure that people are taken care of. I am a certified chef and even though I don't work in restaurants anymore, I adore the field and keep up with current trends. I serve mostly in Boulder county as that is where I live. I am willing to travel but there are additional fees. I pride myself on making my families, their children, and their fur babies happy and feeling cherished! This warms my heart!

Lisa was terrific. Extremely helpful, flexible, and did a brilliant job taking care of our elderly blind, diabetic dog; our elderly deaf dog; our 3 guinea pigs; our our small fish aquarium; and, our indoor/outdoor cat. Our sitting situation requires A LOT of attention to detail and selflessness...and she did a wonderful job. She sent daily photos and updates, was professional, extremely easy to work with, and an experienced home & pet sitter. Will use her for certain in the future! Highly recommend! Thanks, Lisa!!!

Details: Cat • 6 pets or more • Giving food and water • Taking pet outside • Providing companionship • Dispensing medication • Overnight visit (10-12 hours) • Once in total • My home, venue, etc.

I recently moved to Longmont and was in need of a new cat sitter. I found Lisa through Thumbtack and couldn’t be happier with her service! My cat Lucy totally loved her and even let Lisa groom her (which is amazing as my kitty is very shy). Lisa sent updates each day along with pics, which put my mind at ease as I was gone for 9 days. I would highly recommend Lisa for your pet sitting needs!

Lisa was very good with & attentive toward my pets. She arrived exactly at the times I asked her to show. She spent time with my pets. She updated me with photos. And her charge was very reasonable. I will definitely use her again!

Wow! How did we ever find such a spectacular lady?! Actually, our journey to finding Lisa was a little unusual. We knew we would be traveling and really wanted someone to come check on our sweet cat, Newton. I normally work from home so he is used to having someone around all the time. I wasn’t willing to leave for so long without knowing he had a friend to care for him. We asked around a lot, but nobody had a sitter they would actually recommend - yikes! I started looking on google, but all the bigger companies seemed to really only care about dogs. Finally I downloaded Thumbtack, entered my location and my needs and was matched with quite a few well reviewed sitters. When I actually reached out to them though, none of them were willing to come to Boulder. This was confusing to me since I had entered my location but I was SO happy when we got in touch with Lisa. I told her my issue she assured me she lived and worked in Boulder so coming to visit Newton was no problem. She was so accommodating with our busy schedules. After talking with her about history and background (which I recommend because she is such a sweet and funny lady!) I knew she was a perfect match. Then Newton came downstairs and warmed up to her IMMEDIATELY! I have never seen anything like it for a cat who is so easily spooked! Lisa actually volunteered to take care of our mail and plants too - we didn’t have to ask! Right before we left we received a noticed from the community stating that all cars had to be moved for 2 days while the surface streets were repaved! I didn’t hesitate for a second to reach out to Lisa. She said “no problem - just leave the keys and let me know where the car is parked and I would be happy to move it for you.” These might all seem like little things, but we really felt like Lisa was not only our pet sitter coming to feed the cat. We felt like she was taking care of our whole family! We got pictures and updates on Lisa & Newton’s visit daily via email. She took the time to get to know him and went out on the patio with him (he is not allowed out unsupervised). Lisa even sent us a sweet “welcome home” text when she knew we would be back in the country and left a lovely note on our kitchen table for us. I can’t tell you how fortunate we are to have found Lisa. I am not usually able to let go when someone says “don’t worry”, but with Lisa I really felt like I had nothing to worry about. We feel very lucky to have someone that feels like a family friend in Boulder.
