I'll love your pets like you do!

Pet care experience

I have been caring for pets since I was a young teenager, including cats, dogs of every size, fish, and even birds and reptiles! Dogs and cats have always naturally gravitated toward me and even the shyest of pets have warmed up to me quickly. Family and friends rely on me to feed, walk, and care for their pets when they are away and in emergency situations, and I have raised two dogs from puppies to seniors and three cats of my own, including two from kittenhood! My special skills include dealing with aggressive behavior, kitten and puppy care, senior care, and even "cat midwifery" of pregnant and labouring cats! Since all three of my current cats require special individual diets, I am a pro at that as well, and I can administer your pets' medications no problems!

It was my first time using Rover and it was the best decision ever. Saoirse was amazing and my dog and cat warmed up to her really quick! She sent me updates throughout my trip and it really reassured me that everything was going well! I will 100% be hiring her again for my upcoming trips this summer and you should definitely hire her if you're looking for a reliable person to take for your babies while you're away!:)

Saorise was great, loved all the updates and responsiveness. I could tell that my cats enjoyed their visits. Will be booking again if needed! It's nice to know I can go for a getaway/vacation and have peace of mind that they are in good hands.

Saoirse is great!, professional and friendly. (My cat might prefer her company too mine!).

Safety, trust & environment

I will come to your home and make sure your pets feel as comfortable as possible. For walks, I try to follow your dogs' lead in terms of walk routes and preferences. I always offer lots of play time, affection, and snuggles.

Information Saoirse A. would like to know about your pet

I love to know a bit about a dog’s personality—general quirks, favorite toys, walk preferences. I also like to know dietary and medical needs, where they like to nap/sleep, and any behavioural information!

A typical day

I will play with your dogs, take them for walks, talk to them, and engage them with other activities you may have on hand—treats, puzzle feeders, etc. I love trail walks, parks, as well as good old fashioned neighborhood walks!!

I currently do Rover full time, so I am able to devote as much time to your pets as needed! I can fit pet care into my schedule easily and if your pets require someone there on a full-time basis, that can definitely be arranged!
