Pet care experience

Empathetic, patient, kind, gentle

I am very empathetic, and I bond naturally with pets of all sizes, shapes, and temperaments. Seeing them enjoy themselves, be happy, and receive the care and stimulation they need to lead exciting lives brings me personal comfort and joy. Throughout my life, I have always had a soft spot in my heart for animals, even those who may seem unconventional as pets, such as insects or reptiles; I own a bearded dragon myself and also foster a Dubia roach colony for her. I have also worked for the LASPCA as an Animal Care Associate, so I have many hours tending to dogs who are fearful, hesitant, and have many other qualities others may stray away from. In addition, I have walked dogs of various sizes, whether they were smaller or larger than me. Alongside this, during my high school years, I attended classes for veterinary medicine, which furthered my knowledge about animals and any signs of sickness they may exhibit!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I am very attentive to the needs of an animal within my care. At my home, I regularly check in on them and can spot issues they may have because of my knowledge of the veterinary field. For my clients, I will go above and beyond to ensure that your pet will be in good hands when they’re with me.

I need to know whether your pet is on a medication schedule, is special-needs, and may be aggressive toward certain animals (e.g., other dogs or cats). Also, if your dog has any sensitivities when it comes to being handled, such as not tolerating people touching their paws excessively or around their face.
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.
