Animal Lovers Pet Sitting

Insured and bonded, we make sure your pet is well taken care of and loved when you can’t be there yourself. My name is Cathy Mentzer and I'm the new owner of Animal Lovers Pet Sitting. After a long career as a newspaper reporter and later, a higher education communications professional, I decided to try something that I've always wanted to do - work with animals. I know that when considering hiri

ng someone to come into your home and care for your four-legged family member, it can be daunting. You're essentially relying on a stranger to be not only honest and reliable, but to also be kind to your pet. When you hire me to pet sit or take your dog for a walk, you are getting someone who is extremely responsible, reliable and trustworthy. I'm experienced with pets and I have a love for all kinds of animals. All my life, I've had cats and dogs, as well as the occasional rabbit and guinea pig. I've watched friends' pets (even occasionally goats, chickens and donkeys) when they were away and it's been a pleasure to give them the peace of mind of knowing their animals are being well looked after by someone who cares about them as much as they do. After deciding to take the plunge into professional pet sitting, I wanted to do things the right way so I established Animal Lovers Pet Sitting LLC, became a member of Pet Sitters International and obtained insurance and bonding, which offers protection for clients as well as myself. I'm just starting out so I may not have all the answers to every circumstance from the start, but I promise as I learn and grow, I will do my very best to work with each individual client to address their specific situation and provide the best possible care for their furry family members.
