Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pet is my pet when with me.
I love animals so much. I've had many different animals—mainly dogs and cats. I lost my 16-year-old senior Yorkie Maltese mix, and I'm devastated. I have wanted to get into Veterinary Care, but I'm not sure I can handle all that comes with that. The next best thing is helping others with their pets and treating them like my own. What I mean by that is I would do anything for your pet to ensure they were okay. I've been giving subcutaneous fluids and medication to my dog, who passed away, for about two years, so that I can do that for you. I also understand the delicacy of a senior dog and feel that I have the experience to make anybody feel comfortable trusting me to ensure the care for their family member. Besides that, I've had animals all my life. I know a lot about them, and I feel like I would be an asset to anybody looking to find a trusted person to put their mind at ease when they can't be there for their pet for any reason. From firsthand experience, I know it's hard to trust someone to care for your pet as you would. I only count about three people total with mine, LOL, but I want to be that trusted person for you. I can handle dogs of any size and any age. I will love them like my own. ** I have one request: when potential pet clients reach out to me, my response time is usually within 5 minutes or less. If I reach out to you, after you reach out to me, I would appreciate a response. If you have found a different sitter or your plans have changed, that is perfectly okay with me; the most important thing is finding someone you trust and are comfortable with. When a request sits in a Rover pending request, the sitter may not appear in the search results for those days you're potentially holding. That can be tough during busy times. I always try to give everyone time before I archive the request. If I do archive your request, please feel free to reach out, and I can restore the request. Also, please note that I have a 100% response rate. I will always respond to a request. If I don't, I'm driving or in a meeting, so don't worry, you'll hear from me!!**

Ratings and reviews
Bonnie is so thoughtful with our Macintosh! I love the pics we get after every visit.
I had a great experience with Bonnie! She checked in on my dog and two cats and made sure they were given love and attention during the day. She consistently kept me updated and sent great pics at the end of every visit!
Bonnie did an excellent job of taking care of our two cats while we were away for two weeks. We greatly appreciated how communicative she was about each visit, and everything she did for the cats. I also appreciated how she was able to accommodate us on very short notice, which removed a lot of the stress of getting a sitter in time (our travel was at the last minute, so we were kind of scrambling).
Bonnie was absolutely fantastic, and takes the most creative videos and photos if you want a professional cat photographer as a bonus 😊
Bonnie was great with Neri-I came home to a very happy, relaxed cat! I got daily updates and pictures (every day even during a pretty long trip), she was super responsive and really put me at ease while I traveled.
Bonnie, thank you for watching our boys. Everything went great. We will definitely keep you in mind for next time.also that’s a cute picture of Cooper you sent us. Thanks again Dave

Schedule
I am flexible for the most part; I have kids in school. I can also be available at the last minute. So, there is much room to work with you if you need something. I also can easily fit you into my daily routine, as my dog was a part of mine. Cats too! ** I do respectfully request that if you contact me for a potential booking, please respond to me within 24 hours. When I get a request, it's essential to me I can accept it. At times, I will miss out on another booking because of this, please let me know either way, I would appreciate it so much!*
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
If I were caring for the pets at my home, I would make sure that they had their bowls, their bed, and whatever would bring them comfort and what their routine was at home. I have a large backyard, and your dog would never be left alone. If I were caring for an animal at someone else's home, I would ensure I knew the exact routine and what would make their pet most comfortable in their absence.
Pets
A typical day
I live in a dog-friendly and positive neighborhood where, for the most part, people seem to know the rules about approaching a pet and asking if it's okay to say hi, so we would most definitely go for walks around the neighborhood. If they are small enough and I get permission, they're more than welcome to come on errands with me. We would talk about what that would look like and what it means. Of course, there would be playing and treats, if allowed, and maybe some games and interaction with other animals if that was the plan. And, of course, just hanging out and giving whatever they need. If there is something you would specifically like me to do for mental stimulation or physical activity or whatever they need, that will all be a part of our day.
