I will come and stay at your house and take care of your pets, plants and house, if you want. I can drop in at your house one to 3 times a day, to take care of your pets, plants and mail, if you prefer that over me staying overnight in your home. Just let me know what is needed.

Information Bonnie L. would like to know about your pet

I would need to know any physical or emotional or mental challenges your pet has so I can arrive prepared to take care of the pet to my best ability.

A typical day

I love to play a variety of games to challenge the pets mentally and physically. I have a game called “find it” where I hide small treats and ask the dog or cat to go find them. They absolutely love this game.

Pet care experience

My pet sitting career started when I was 10 years old taking care of the neighborhood pets. I started working for veterinarians in 1981 and just retired. I would love to help people and their pets full time. I also have been studying animal behavior in my spare time for the last 15 years and am a clicker trainer. I can give medications, if needed, including insulin shots. (I used to have a diabetic cat.) I will also look after birds, fish, hamsters, rabbits, ferrets, etc. You name it, I’ve probably taken care of it. Geriatric pets are my specialty.

Bonnie takes great care of our cat. She went the extra mile this time when Sage got sick and needed extra attention.

Bonnie took excellent care of our cat. Sage was relaxed and happy when we got home. Bonnie has lots of experience with cats and we will definitely use her services again.

Scheduled a sitter for my 2 dogs with Bonnie. Did a meet & greet and both dogs were instantly comfortable with her. She was so friendly and patient with Max & Cookie. She was knowledgeable and informative concerning pet care. My scheduled changed and she still was waiting to see if her services were still needed and even requested a refund which was totally unexpected. Her willingness to still provide services in the future was totally appreciated. Would highly recommend her to anyone who needed care for their fur babies.

My dogs Max and Diego had a very nice time with Bonnie. She saw to their needs expertly and it was as if they never knew I was gone. I recommend her as a dog and house sitter very highly. .

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.
