“I know Rebecca well. She gets involved in the animal's lives she is connected with. She works hard to meet the physical and psychological needs of the animal she is working with. She really gets to know the animals. After she takes care of an animal she knows them well enough to write a profile on them. She is caring and compassionate with all of her personal animals which are several species. This helps her meet the needs of any animal she is care for quite well. She is an awesome Caretaker for critters”

“Tammy stayed at my home and took care of my 2 dogs and 1 cat for almost 2 weeks recently. She is a very trustworthy person and I would trust her with anything. Besides feeding and taking care of them, she trained them from jumping up on people when they come in my home. That was wonderful that she did that for me.”

About: I’ve honed my skills in caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. I've successfully trained playful puppies, teaching them the essential foundations of obedience and manners. On the other end of the spectrum, I've offered gentle and attentive care to senior dogs, understanding their unique needs and ensuring their comfort. Administering oral medication to dogs is second nature, guaranteeing their health and well-being. I love going to dog parks, providing pups with exercise, social interaction, and a chance to release pent-up energy. My pet care expertise extends to both big and small dogs, recognizing the distinct requirements of different breeds. But above all, my joy lies in witnessing their happiness when owners are away, and this is often captured in photos of exuberant tail wags. Pet owners cherish these updates, knowing their furry companions are not just cared for but loved. My commitment to their well-being and happiness is at the heart of my pet care services. I’m a college student with a nursing major. Almost all my classes are online so I’m usually always available, just check in with me and we can work out a schedule that works for everyone. As your rover, rest assured that your pet's safety is my top priority. During drop-in visits, I'll carefully assess and ensure your pet's well-being, checking the security of the environment, like making sure all gates to the fence are closed. Before I leave, I'll confirm that your pet has all their necessities and that your home is secure with locked doors. If you prefer your dog to be crated, I'm more than willing to accommodate that. I'll also handle cleaning duties, from tidying up their dog or cat bowls to any messes they may create, leaving your home as clean or even cleaner than I found it. When I take your dog for a walk, I'll bring along treats and a portable water bowl to keep them comfortable and hydrated. And most importantly, I adore snuggles! Your pet will be in loving and capable hands, ensuring their well-being and happiness throughout my care.
