About
I provide a personal service to those who are not comfortable with putting their pets in a kennel, or leaving them alone. I go to the home of the client, and take care of the needs of their loved pets, take in the mail, switch lighting around, water plants, feed the fish, scoop, or clean the litter pan, etc.
First, and foremost I love animals, I also like the freedom that this kind of work affords me. I love to be outdoors, and to get to know people, and their pets. I find this very rewarding in many ways.I can't stand being stuck behind a desk.

We had Gail pet sit our 2 cats and dog for 3 nights. She sent us pictures and updates of our pets a few times a day which was awesome and appreciated. She took special care to give our older cat Jack love and attention despite him being a cranky guy. Our dog Jo was exercised outside. We came back to a clean house and happy pets!
Details: Dog • 3 pets • Giving food and water • Taking pet outside • Providing exercise • Providing companionship • Overnight visit (10-12 hours) • Once in total • My home, venue, etc.

Gail is personable with critters AND people! Gail is honest, reliable, conscientious, even making visits at odd hours to ensure comfort of our pets' schedules; I loved how she took pictures and communicated regularly. A wonderful lady providing a wonderful service. We will work with Gail in the future to provide care for our senior dog and cats in the comfort of our home.

Being new cat owners, my girlfriend and I were worried about having to find someone to sit our kitty while we were on vacation. All anxiety went away after our first meeting with Gail from Happy Whiskers Pet Sitting service.
Gail assured us that she could provide quality care for our cat in the comfort of our home. She certainly delivered on this promise! In addition to the usual cat-sitting tasks performed each visit, she sent us daily messages on how our cat was doing along with pictures. Our cat is quite picky and usually hesitant to interact with strangers, but she warmed up instantly to Gail. My girlfriend and I were able to have a relaxing vacation away from home and came back to a very happy kitty. I'd strongly recommend her to any pet owners!
