Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes, but for the past 18 years I have taken a fancy to Pomeranians. I have four Poms, a rescue Chihuahua, and a cat who range in age from 8 to 12+. I have taken Veterinary Assistant and Technician classes, and I have experience in pet sitting as well as caring for pets, young and senior alike, with ailments that range from Collapsing Trachea, Epilepsy, Small Airway Disease, stage four Heart murmur and Degenerative Valve Disease, so I have hands on experience in administering medications in many forms. Now that I got that out of the way, the best part is that I’m home (very nearly) full time, which means I’m always at the ready to make new friends!

Athena was fantastic! We had a sitter drop out two days before our trip and Athena responded promptly, came over for an initial visit and took great care of our two cats and house while we were gone for 2 weeks. We will be using her again, and I highly recommend her for your pets!!

Athena did great job at taking care of my boys. She made very cute reports from my babies daily and I looked forward to them each day. I am happy with her service and will book again when needed

Athena is reliable, punctual, and friendly. She communicates well and lets us rest easy knowing the cats are in good hands. 10/10

Athena was consistent and communicative and even saw our scaredy-cat a few times!

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.
