Pet care experience

Local College Student, I love pets!

In middle and high school, my family and I were members of Rover and we developed a small group of satisfied repeat clients. I have been around animals my whole life. My uncle had two dogs that I grew up with. Watching them while my uncle and aunt were out of town taught me valuable skills and experiences like walking a dog, feeding, bathing, playing, and training. My aunt is a vet and I have learned a lot from her. In high school, my family got our dog, and having her in the house with us has been a joy; she makes us laugh every day. The responsibility of having a dog made me more reliable when it comes to pet care and overall life. Also, I was part of a club at my former university where we volunteered to train service dogs for people in need, and a lot of those skills and practices translate into how well I can handle a dog. In Summer 2023, I moved back home and continued my Rover services in my hometown, gaining several clients, including multiple repeat clients for drop-ins, walks, and housesitting.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I am always respectful when I am in a client's home. I appreciate when clients leave instructions and clear expectations on how they would like their space to be respected while I am caring for their pets.

It was a pleasure meeting Abby. She was a good fit for Charlie who doesn't always warm up to new people. She kept up with the litter and his food, and changed his water. And she took time to visit with him and play---and he continued to play more with his toys than he usually does when we got home. We appreciated her detailed notes and the many pictures. It was really nice to be able to take a vacation and know that Charlie was being visited by Abby.
