Love dogs and patient with them all the time
Pet care experience
I have got 8 years experience with dogs; size like German shepherds, I love playing around with them and feeding them; I am very gentle with them and know their safety is very important. I allow dogs inside my house and on me bed that is how much I love them. I believe that care and communication with dogs are important because I believe they would listen to you only if you listen to them; I take them out for loo's and walks all the time when it is needed; and have the ability to notice if they are unhappy and would be able to sense if they need the loo or anything; I love to communicate with dogs and would always love them from my heart.
Reviews
Was kind and courteous, respected my home and cared for my animals. Highly recommend. I am so happy I am using her again this week and will use Shivani each time I go away.
Willow stayed with Shivani overnight and was looked after with care, love and affection. Shivani and her mum and dad are so lovely and caring and I won’t hesitate to book her again if she is free to do so. I would recommend Shivani most highly and Willow and I look forward to getting to know her more when I need her skills looking after Willow.
Booked this sitter for 8 nights, unfortunately, the day before drop off they had an emergency and only informed me on the day but failed to tell me that they would be away and had left the care of my dog with family members. As a dog owner, it is the first few days that is most important when leaving family pets with sittters and regular updates to provide reassurance that our pets have settled in well. This sitter failed to do the very basics of bonding with Leo and I have had to ask continuously for updates daily and all I got was “he’s getting on fine” or “yep, he’s fine”. Not to mention I was abroad during this time and felt very anxious and worried for the well-being of Leo. I was eventually sent a few what I would describe cold photos that clearly showed Leo was unhappy and had no affection whatsoever - these were sent on day 3!!!! It made being away from him and leaving him with a complete stranger so unbearable that I had to reach out to Rover emergency support for help and seek alternative dogsitter as I felt that she did not have the experience or passion for caring for dogs and have simply relied on family members to look after other people’s pets. She said my dog bites which I find hard to believe as we have used Rover dog boarding services a few times and for long periods, not to mention repeat bookings and have not once had this said about Leo. Clearly she had failed to bond and build any trust with Leo and has made this experience for us the worst dog sitting service we have ever received through Rover. I don’t believe she has the experience in looking after dogs, although she has two dogs of her own, it doesn’t mean she looks after them all the time or has understanding of other breeds. Even when we had Leo collected, another family member was walking Leo and his leash had not even been put on him properly, this clearly indicates she has no care or affection or even the slightest remorse for the ordeal she has put Leo and myself during the 3 worst nights we unfortunately had to endure. Disappointed is an understatement, she should have been transparent from the start. I would have understood if she had to cancel our booking the day before when she knew about her emergency as she needed to focus her attention on that matter. I would not recommend this sitter on the basis that I don’t believe she has the experience or capability to understand the importance of bonding with dogs of different breeds and relies on family members to “help” look after dogs supposedly in her “care”.
Shivani took really good care of Quinn this week - she was responsive, shared videos and photos to let us know he’d settled in ok, and took good care of him. We will definitely ask her to look after Quinn again!
