Hello pet parents! 🐾 My name is Calista, and I’m a certified veterinary assistant ( not currently with a practice) with a deep passion for animals. Although I’m transitioning into a full-time 9-5 career, I still want to ensure I get my daily dose of furry companionship by offering my pet-sitting services through Rover. I’m available on weekends and Early mornings/ Evening hours on weekdays, making my schedule ideal if your furry friend is accustomed to you being away for work during the day. With my background in veterinary assistance, you can rest assured that your pets will be in capable and caring hands. Whether it’s a walk in the park, a cozy overnight stay, or just some company and playtime, I’m here to provide the love and care your pets need while you’re away. Let’s make sure your pets are happy, healthy, and loved, even when you’re not home. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family members soon!

Information Calista S. would like to know about your pet

I think its important to know a dogs energy level, any routine they may be used to, what kind of training or commands they have (Leash walking, recall, sit, Ect.) Medical and medication information if nessasary.

A typical day

There are lots of amazing walking trails in the area to explore and find some new friends/smells. Does your dog LOVE fetch or tug o war? Me too! Im always happy to play until they get tired!

Calista did a very good job. Our cat was fed and the litter was disposed of as we requested. I would definitely ask her take care of him again.

My Stanny boy was so well cared for! This was his first overnight with Calista and he seemed relaxed and comfortable with her in his home. I'm so glad the first stay went well and feel so much more comfortable for the longer stay we have booked in the Fall!
