I am conscientious, dependable, and will care for your home and your pets just as I would as if they were my own. With so many years of experience, there is no need to worry, because you can trust that your home will be secure, and I will do my best to make your pets feel safe, secure and well-loved in your absence.
My Experience
I have always loved animals, even as a child. I grew up with pets, worked for a veterinarian while in high school, and started house sitting in college, which often included caring for the owner's pets. I telecommute, so most locations will be considered, as long as reliable high-speed internet service would be available. I have cared for dogs, cats, chickens, goats, birds, hamsters, sugar gliders--always willing to expand my repertoire! Realistically, I can't have all the animals I wish to, so pet sitting gives me the opportunity to "foster" many. I also have the satisfaction of knowing that I am giving pet owners peace of mind, knowing that their pets will be safe and happy while in my care (without breaking their vacation budget -- please see my rates below).
Don't just take my word for it--please read the reviews from some of my previous customers.
