Pet Sitter in Snowmass, Colorado

Hi! I am an energetic person with a zest for life. I’m also reliable, trustworthy, and will always be there for your pet when you can’t be. . ABOUT KATIE I grew up with animals and used to dream of being the next Dr. Doolittle. I'm an animal rights activist so you can rest assured knowing your fur- (or feather- or scale-) baby is in great hands. I studied veterinary care for a year before I went into business. At one point my childhood farm had 5 dogs, 13 cats, 3 goats, 2 horses, 2 parakeets, 1 hamster, and wild turkey. I think you can say that I'm quite comfortable with animals. ;) I love working as a Marketing Director for a wonderful nonprofit. I live and work at a campground so your pups will have 15 acres to run (leashed with me, of course) and play. This is also the reason why I may decline some opportunities because a program is happening at the time. A few of the perks working here are working from home and pets at work. This guarantees that your companion(s) will not be alone for long periods of time, if ever. One of the things I love about myself is that I'm Deaf. It has enabled me to see more and appreciate the small things in life. I am able to read pets' body languages very well and quickly make changes, if needed. No worries if your pet makes a lot of noise! ;) . ABOUT SERVICES Kennels and cold boarding places can add stress to your pet when you are away. So why not leave your companions in a safe and cozy place with a familiar routine, smells from home, and great company? Administering medicine, walks, brushing, massages, and regular updates included. For house sitting or drop ins, collecting mail, security checks, and taking the trash out/bins in are included. It’s a good deterrent for thieves to have someone at the house often- travel with confidence knowing that your home and furbabies are safe! I'm allergic to cats so I can't cuddle with them (as much as I want to) but have no problem checking on them and making sure they are happy. I love the idea of taking care of rodents, snakes, spiders, birds, and the likes. . ABOUT SAFETY My home and car are free of toxins like bleach, parabens, sulfates, and the likes. I accomplish this by being plastic free as much as possible and using green products for cleaning. I set up pets for success by keeping things clean and put up. The trashcan has a lid (I can add a lock if need be). The floor is wood and can be easily cleaned up quickly if a pet has an accident (hey, it happens). My car is equipped with pet seat belts as well as a bucket car seat for those who get carsick. I take pride in driving like a grandma; it is the reason why I have never been in an accident before! If you have a strict diet, routine, or obedience rules, I will follow it. If you’re a go-with-the-flow person, I can flow with that too! . TL;DR: I will love your pets like you do. I only offer the BEST in care for your special companion, where they are happiest either in their own home or a place much like home. As a fur mom who can relate, I go all out with safety and will not break your rules, if any. Your companion will have fun and/or relax with Rigel and me!
