Your pets, my passion!

Pet care experience

I have been caring for pets, and an avid pet lover, for as long as I can remember. I have had multiple family dogs since I was six, and now that I am moved out and living on my own, I have my own cat, and I frequently dog sit for my family for months at a time when they are on vacation. Before I had a family dog of my own, I remember going over to my neighbors house every single day to take her dog on a walk, just because it made me so happy to spend time with dogs! When I was younger I even wanted to be a veterinarian :) I can’t wait to get my own home one day so that I can own multiple dogs and have a big yard for all of them to play in! I also volunteer at a local shelter, and whenever there are opportunities for community service days for my work, I tend to choose some thing related to animals.

Andrea took care of our two pugs and our one cat . First off , we did a meet and greet with her and the pups about a week prior . Everything was great and I thought would work out perfect . Keep in mind we have been using rover for years and past sitters has been amazing. I will admit this is the first time I have had a negative experience with a sitter . I always tell people I love rover services because they make our vacations stress free because I know the animals are in good hands . Not even a couple hours into our trip , we were having issues. I always have communication with the sitters so I tell them that we have puppy cameras on there cage so we can watch them . The day we left we had a flight so right before take off I checked on the dogs and they were barking a ton so I texted the sitter a simple text asking when she will be home . I have never gotten a rude or disrespectful text from any sitter but this time I received a very hostile message implying if the dogs can’t be home by themselves that Mabey she wasn’t a good fit and other solutions need to be came up with . I was in shock . I told her the dogs can’t be home alone for more than 4-5 hours max. The only expectation was she gave me notice ahead of time that on one of the days she had a family commitment and would be gone less than 7 hours so I accepted that for only one day . She kept texting say that if she knew the dogs needed someone home with them that we told her wrong information . The thing that confuses me is that these are puppies and I told her multiple time prior to booking her that they get into trouble a lot and need a lot of supervisions and if she doesn’t think she is a good fit than that’s okay I would book someone else . Keep in mind we are on a a plane to across the us and are getting these messages . To say we were stressed our whole vacation making sure our dogs well-being’s were taken care of is understatement . I am very disappointed and will not recommend this sitter .

Andrea was amazing with my dogs! We had to fly somewhere last minute for a couple days, and she was great with them. She met with the pups and I beforehand, because my dog Bear can be a little uneasy about new people in the apartment. He warmed up to her so quick! She sent tons of cute pictures, and awesome updates. Even put their little halloween bandannas on them for Halloween! I will definitely be contacting her again if we need a sitter!

So grateful to have found Andrea! She is incredibly prompt in her responses and easy to work with, and takes great care of our pup when she visits. We also love receiving photos of our pup during her visits!

We found Andrea to be very responsive - and prompt in her responses - during the entire process. She was happy to accommodate our meet & greet request (which sealed the deal) and checked in promptly on her arrival to our home. She even had one of our skitty kitty's eating out of her hand! Would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Since I am home throughout the day, I am able to give your pets the best experience. Even though I do not have a backyard, I would be able to take as many breaks as needed and take your pets to dog parks, on long walks, and big open fields to play in. I live in a very pet friendly apartment with multiple other pets. I also have multiple friends in my building whose pets love play dates with other animals, if that is some thing your pet would be interested in. When in someone else’s home, I care for it as if it were my own! I love to keep things better than I found it, and I’m a bit of a neat freak myself. I would ask that you inform me if there are any cameras in your home, just for my own security and safety.

Information Andrea C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pets have any special needs, or instructions that would help me care for them in the best way. Their potty and eating schedules are important. Also, if they are aggresive or have any history of aggression with people or other animals, please let me know. I know some pets don’t like their paws wiped after walks, so inform me on that as well!

A typical day

I love taking dogs to the dog park! There are some great ones by me with kiddie pools where dogs can cool off on hot days. Also, I know of many open, but fenced in, fields near me that I take my own dog to just to run around, play catch, and let out some puppy energy.

I am currently working part-time from home with a lot of flexibility. I am going in the office Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, but depending on your location I could check on your pets at lunch! On Mondays and Fridays I am fully remote, and I can work from anywhere that has Wi-Fi, which allows me to have even more flexibility! I am also able to be free most weekends with a few days notice.
