Pet care experience

Animal Health and Science Graduate

I have been the primary caretaker for dozens of species of animals starting when I was just ten years old. I have worked in veterinary care, trained dogs in competition obedience, have trained assistance animals, and recently graduated from VT with a degree in animal science with a focus on companion and small mammal health, medicine, and management.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I try to cater my care as much as possible to each pet’s individual personality. I know every pet has a different comfort level around strangers and I am very conscious about respecting how much (or how little) personal space and gentle calm animal needs as I care for them.

Arwen was great! She was very nice and was very flexible with some of our weird key drop off and pick up times!

Arwen was terrific! She put my pup immediately at ease and had great questions making the initial time very smooth. Arwen is very responsive and her communications are clear. I felt confident with her there and have already lined her up for my second trip away.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I currently work full time at an animal rescue and sanctuary. Most days (but not all) I work 8-4 but am more than willing to stop in at any time around my work schedule even if it means waking up early to stop by before work!!

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Arwen can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
I would love to know ahead of time how comfortable they are with strangers, if they have any spots on their body they do or do not like to be pet, what treats I can give them if I can give them treats, and anything else you think may be important.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
