Pet Sitter in Salem, Massachusetts

I’m a long time business professional and commuter who discovered in the past few years I’d rather be at home with my cat! As long as I can remember I’ve always had a passion for animals. After owning and caring for an overweight diabetic pet I turned my natural instinct as an animal advocate into my profession. I work as an emergency and critical care veterinary technician and have for the past 5 years. My services include- Dog walking & play time. I only walk one dog at a time (unless there is more than one dog in the family and pre-arranged) whatever the needs of your pup will be accommodated! I will walk at their pace. Do you have a senior dog that only needs a quick potty break and then plenty of snuggling time? Or a crazy pup with tons of energy that needs a nice long walk to tucker him out? I offer walks and or yard play in 15 minute intervals depending on your dog's needs. All sessions include feeding if needed. Drop in visits. I believe it is best for an animal to stay as close to their routine when Mom or Dad is away. I realize that cat personalities are quite unique and all the care that goes into a needy attention seeker as much as the shy quiet guy under the couch. I'm dedicated to spending time in your house engaging with their personalities and letting them know they are loved and safe. I also believe that if away for an extended amount of time or have an older or sicker pet; a minimum of once a day to check in should be a priority. So many emergencies can happen within a 24 hour span! In home pet sitting – dependent on availability. I have several rates dependent on services – please inquire for a quote. The visits can last anywhere from 30 minutes - 1 hr and will include walks/feeding/play time/administering meds/checking blood sugar/delivering fluids/litterbox cleaning/and so many snuggles for your fur babies! Just let me know what their regular schedule is and I will be there! Many of my owners appreciate a picture to know their loved one is stress free or eating on schedule, which I am happy to send. I am active on a cat diabetes website for advice and obviously specialize in this area. I will also take care of whatever little household needs you might have. (Bring in mail, water plants, take out trash, and feed fish). I hope you will give me the opportunity to take THE BEST CARE of your 4 legged babies! I am certified in Pet First Aid, and have many references upon request!
