About

It's important to have someone you can trust. I am trustworthy, honest and reliable. When I give my word, it's a done deal! Communication is so important. I love communicating with my customers when away about how their "babies" are doing. Also texting pictures of them when they miss them too much! Getting outside and walking dogs are a true joy. They love it, and I also benefit. Also I love sweet affectionate cats.It's a pleasure to take care of and cuddle them! I also enjoy caring for sweet birds. They are a delight!! *Because of COVID 19 the use of masks when visiting for a meet and greet is mandatory. I value your life and my own. Please have your pets cleaned for me for overnight stays. Much appreciated! Let's stay safe and create an environment that is good for all. Thank you kindly, Rita Inserra

While I was out of town, I felt more confident, knowing that Rita would be coming to check on the cats every day. She let me know each time she came how the cats were doing.

Rita did a marvelous job sitting our cat while we were on vacation! I was able to actually relax not worrying that Cali was lonely or needing anything. The daily updates were so nice and reassuring. Will definitely have Rita come back for our next time away!

Rita was wonderful! She not only gave my cats food and standard care, but you could tell she gave them love and played with them too. I felt so relieved knowing she was taking care of my babies!
