It's cruise season! Fall is the ideal time to enjoy your vacation in the northeast. Many people are enjoying incredible deals on tropical cruises right now. You will want to relax and enjoy, without worrying about what is happening at home. Who will walk the dog, feed the cat, get your mail and make your home look "lived-in" while you are gone? Don't let your pet or property tie you down! Why board your loving animals when you have an affordable option to have them tended professionally in your own home? Boarding facilities provide safety, but not the TLC you would like. Your companion animals are going to miss you, so don't add to the stress by taking them out of their home and familiar environments. In your own home, they still have your scent everywhere and see your things and are reassured that you are going to come back. Personality, age, medical conditions, gender and other factors affect how the animal could respond to an off-site care situation. Cats are even more sensitive to environment changes than most dogs. More benefits of in-home pet sitting to your animals: • Stay at home in their safe, secure environment • Surrounded by familiar sights, smells and sounds • Follow their regular diet and exercise routines • Have play time • Get love and personal attention • Maintains medical treatment, when required • Someone responsible is there in case of an emergency • No traumatic travel • No getting used to an unfamiliar environment • Good health as they will not be exposed to other animals' illness or parasites. As a professional home sitter and dog walker, I will give your pets happy play times, care for them, and love them like a family member. Also, I will water your plants, walk your dogs, get your mail and secure your home and property while you are away, whether just for the work day, or during your whole vacation so you can feel secure. I'm a retired lawyer and have had animals all my life, including dogs, cats, small pets, birds, fish, reptiles and more over the years. I love all animals and taking care of living things brings me joy. Your loved ones and your home will be cared for as you would do, including medications, grooming, and loving and cleaning. No coming home to fur all over the furniture and floors, no accidents on the carpet, claw marks or worse. You will come home to a nice smelling home and a yard clean of dog waste. When you come home you will be immediately greeted by your happy pets. You won't have to make another trip and drive out to the kennel to pick up your furbabies during their business hours. NOTE: I do not board your animals with me, I care for your beloved companions in their own home. Options include checking on your home and caring for the animals and plants once a day, twice a day, overnight or continuous sitting. Dog walks are always included. Whatever animals you keep, whether you have peafowl, aquatics, snakes, ferrets, tarantula or sugar gliders or others, I will care for each animal appropriately. Special requests are usually accommodated. Reasonable rates. Flexible hours. References upon request. Text or call right now to reserve your time. Serving the greater Rochester area.

Kari Marchant is my mother. She has owned cats, dogs, birds and rabbits and enjoyed the experience. She is good with animals of all kinds and is respectful of personal privacy and property. She prepared me well to be a responsible pet owner.

To whom it may concern, Kari Marchant is a fellow church member of mine, who I know to be a true care giver--and who cares for her elderly Father. I would completely trust Kari with my home and pets. She is a sensible and reliable person Feel free to call me for any questions or concerns you may have. Gary
