Pet care experience

Animal Lover who's a future Vet!

What sets me aside from other sitters is the love i have for animals. Since i was a little girl I've always loved being around animals they were and still are very therapeutic to me. I've had big dogs from Pitbull's, Dobermann, American bullies, all the way down to tiny dogs; yorkies, shitzu etc. even different kinds of cats you name it. As I've gotten older I've gained sooo much experience to the point I've had at home births with my dogs and cats all by myself; even home training my own animals as well. My goal here is to gain a work related reputation where i can truly start doing what i love and make a name for myself until i can become that super Veterinarian I've always dreamed of being. So far all i have is personal experience with dealing with animals at home and at my job(My residents animals). This would truly mean a lot if i can show off my skills and how genuine i am with animals and even people.

Chelsea was a fantastic rover for our dog! She was extremely responsive, punctual, and helped us several times on short notice! She also clearly cared for our dog and was super kind. Would recommend her to anyone!

Schedule

Pet Care currently fits for me during the week days. I work doubles every Saturday and Sunday; whereas for school i do online Vet courses which is self pace. Which means i am free during the week Monday-Friday between 9am-5pm if communicated at least at least 30min-1hr in advanced i could stay later if needed. Although, I am a mother which means i can not do any services past 7pm nor any over night services. I also am located downtown Chicago but I am willing to travel!!

Safety, trust & environment

One thing about me i will spoil your baby(s) haha; I am very hands on and affectionate with animals unless they require space lol. I have never been a crate animal person BUT i know every household is different and every animal requires different training. Again, animals bring a lot of joy to my heart; very therapeutic for me and if given the chance you wouldn't be disappointed i promise!.

Pets

A typical day

Honestly, I allow the fur baby to lead. Whereas seeing if they would like to go have some fun inside or out. I am a big toy and treat buyer so my goals are always to have them warm up to me first and allow them to become comfortable. When most comfortable they’re most open to doing more things. If allowed I would go to doggy parks for the dogs, long walks downtown if in reasonable distance, possible car rides depending on if the cat or dog is comfortable, etc. It can also be as simple as playing at home with their toys or running around in a yard. Simple but meaningful bonding time for sure!

Chelsea can host up to 1 pet per night
What I feel is important would be their special needs. Are they on any medication that needs to be administered, are they on a set schedule with potty breaks, are they aggressive if touched a certain way or picked up etc., are they kid friendly, any allergies at all, their dislikes if known, and my favorite thing to know do they like to cuddle.
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.
