About: Animals have always been the center of my life. I understand them like I understand people. I surrounded my life around them and dedicated my life to taking care of them. I have a gift of understanding them, something people have told me for years. I love them with all my heart and soul and do everything in my power to make sure they are happy. Animals bring joy to the world 💜 I work at a Veterinarian Clinic, my schedule can vary but I will always do my best to accommodate your animals needs. I can be flexible for boarding. I have a fenced in back yard. I am located right on the lake so I always take my dogs for walks, and golf cart runs by the lake. I have two dogs and two cats at home. They get along really well with all critters.
About: Welcome to my page! The most important thing you need to know about me is that I love animals (sometimes more than people). Nothing makes me happier than coming home after a long day and being greeted by my babies or cuddling with them in bed. I currently have four dogs, and while it can get chaotic, I love every second of it. I have lived with dogs since birth and have enjoyed witnessing the unique personalities of each of our pets. That is why I love meeting new animals - each one has a new personality that I always find adorable. Each different temperament of our pets has taught me valuable lessons that have shaped me into the passionate pet caregiver I am today. I have a heart of empathy that I would love to extend to your babies by having the opportunity to take care of them! While I may have sold you on my love for dogs, I have not yet touched on the responsibilities that come with professional care. In my house, my mom and I take care of our four dogs together. We share the daily duties of feeding, letting them outside multiple times a day, taking them for a daily 15 to 30-minute walk in our yard, and making sure they have plenty of time outside to ease stress and anxiety by getting their energy out. Additionally, I have experience with senior dog care as our 11-year-old golden retriever gets frequent hotspots that need attended to as well as needs Gabapentin given for her arthritis. One of our other dogs is an American Pitbull terrier, Australian Cattle Dog, and Great Pyrenees mixed breed. As you can probably imagine, she is highly energetic and has a strong prey-drive. We have her trained on a stim collar that is controlled by a remote, so basically what I'm trying to say is I have experience with the wild child as well! All of these specifics aside, I have been pet sitting for three years now and thoroughly enjoy it. As a nursing student, responsibility, communication, caregiving, timeliness, and integrity come naturally to me. I would love nothing more than to meet you and your pets and share my experience with you all! Currently, I am a nursing student and work PRN as a Clinical Technician in the MICU and a Nursing Student Tech in the ER. Because I work PRN, I do not schedule any shifts more than two-weeks in advance to allow a clear schedule for possible bookings. I attend Bryant & Stratton College in Parma and currently attend classes that are subject to change with each semester. I commute about an hour to each of those locations from my home, so driving is not an issue for me. You can always ask for more specifics in the chat or during our meet and greet. As a former college student-athlete, time-management has become my forte. I keep a detailed and organized schedule to ensure that when I take a job, your pets become my priority. Communication is crucial to maintain safety and trust while I stay or visit your home. I ask that my clients let me know ahead of time the security measures taken on a daily basis. I do this not only to protect myself, but also to maintain your home's security so your time away is spent without anxiety. I know it can be hard or even weird to allow a stranger in your home so feel free to ask any questions.

I'm looking to provide services through Rover to get out and explore the area while making some extra income so my furry family can keep living the high life- you know those chew toys aren't cheap ;) I would love to do dog walks so that I can get those daily steps in- a slimmer waistline is good for people AND pets!

Currently, I am available to work all day! When pet-sitting I follow what the owner wants for their pet, I always keep the animal close & in sight.
