Hello there! 

As a pet owner who has used Pawshake with great results for my own cat Georgie, I decided that I should offer up my services for pet sitting and dog walking as I have experience with both! I know how scary it can be to leave care of your pet with someone else, so I value clear communication and ensuring that everyone feels comfortable with the arrangement. I very much understand that each pet is unique and requires different care, so I am here to learn about all the quirks and special traits your fur babies might have. 

I have really appreciated getting daily updates through Pawshake sitters in the past, so I am of course happy to send photos each day with an update about your pet. For visits (around 30min) I will clean litter, give fresh food and water, and of course spend time with your pet! I have been around many, many animals in my life and know how to read cues and figure out how much play or attention your pet may need. 

*I am open to two visits a day only in my immediate area of Kensington/Cedar Cottage neighbourhood. Thanks!

I love animals and have experience caring for several different dogs and cats (and chickens, and sheep, and ducks..!) I also have fostered two puppies! I work from home for a local nonprofit and enjoy getting out into the outdoors whenever possible. I also love to read, knit, cook, and spend time curled up with Georgie.

Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions you might have- I'm happy to chat and explore options! Thanks for reading, and I look forward to hearing from you :)
