About
My customers tell me leaving their fur babies is very traumatic.
They say my experience, care and compassion is top-notch, and they never worry when taking care of their pets.
I have one client that travels frequently. Before my service, she had to board their dog.
Her husband really missed Sophie when he would get home from work. Seeing happy pets and owners is what I enjoy the most.
Customers rated this pro highly for professionalism, work quality, and responsiveness.

Sheila did an amazing job caring for our two kitties while we were away. She was very clear in communicating updates to us and was very quick to respond. She is very sweet and obviously cares very much for animals and providing excellent service. We would hire her again for sure!

Sheila is wonderful! She is very sweet and loving to my dogs and keeps me updated on all of their walks. She puts their safety first and will not walk them if the weather is too hot or cold. She will spend her visit indoors and put in quality playtime. I highly recommend her!

Our "babies" loved their time being cared for by Meows and Growls. Everything was done with gentleness and kindness. Our precious pets were loved and received the utmost care. We would recommend Meows and Growls to anyone who loves their pets like we do. With much gratitude to Sheila. Rosemary M

Sheila is the best pet sitter we have worked with! Our pets (a cat and a Newfie dog) both love her and we have great trust in her caring for them in our absence. She is professional, caring, and flexible with our ever changing schedules. Highly recommend!
