About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my background in veterinary assistance, which allows me to provide an extra layer of care for your pets. Whether it’s administering medications, caring for pets with medical conditions, or recognizing early signs of health issues, I’m equipped to handle any situation with confidence. Along with my experience in training puppies and caring for senior pets, I offer specialized attention and peace of mind knowing your pets are in the hands of someone with professional veterinary knowledge. Your pets will receive both love and expert care while you’re away! I currently work full time at a veterinary emergency clinic 3 days a week so I have the remaining days for pets and fun for fur babies When caring for pets, safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure pets are in a secure, pet-friendly space where they can explore and relax without risk. In my home, I provide a clean, pet-proofed environment with plenty of room for play and rest. I follow any specific dietary or care instructions and maintain a structured routine to keep pets calm and comfortable. For pets with medical needs, my veterinary assistance experience allows me to confidently administer medications and monitor their health. In your home, I maintain your pet’s familiar environment, ensuring minimal disruption to their daily routine. I am respectful of your space and provide regular updates to give you peace of mind. I make sure pets feel safe and cared for by creating a trusting, calm atmosphere through consistent feeding, playtime, and attention.

“Being a dog walker with a 5 star review on Rover myself I couldn’t think of anyone I’d rather trust with my pets more than Chloé. She is honest, trustworthy, on-time, flexible, and of course a huge animal lover. I know Chloé has owned dogs in the past and has always talked about them with so much love. I know she will do anything to make sure the dog(s) she walks will be safe, happy, and well loved every time.”

19. Sasha E.
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. Ever since I was a little kid, my family always had multiple rescue dogs and I absolutely loved helping to care for them. Over the last 5 years I have gotten involved in animal rescue and fostering. I’ve fostered over 10 dogs and successfully found them their forever homes (except my foster fail, Betty 😜) I currently volunteer at DACC as much as I can, and absolutely love being able to help get the dogs some fresh air and play time. I would love the chance to get to know you and your fur babies and give you peace of mind that they are in good hands while you are away! I recently got laid off from my job, the restaurant that I managed for 8 years suddenly shut down, so right now I have plenty of time to focus on what I love- caring for dogs and cats! I’m happy to follow your dogs typical routine- whether they are crate trained or get free roam of the home. Whatever makes you and your pets feel safe, I am more than happy to accommodate!
