Lifelong Animal Lover

Pet care experience

When I was younger, my parents made me wear jingle bells on my shoes because of how often they'd lose track of me. This was due to the fact that whenever I saw a dog, cat, or any animal in public, I'd run to go pet them. This is just one example that shows my deep love for animals that started early in life. I have experience with basic dog training, I can handle dogs any size or energy level, and will adjust my care as such. I am a first year at Louisiana Tech, majoring in Environmental Science with a concentration in Wildlife Habitat Management. My life goals revolve around the wellbeing of animals and nature. Currently I have 3 online classes and one in the afternoon one day a week, so my schedule is pretty free! I work nights for about 6 hours at a time, but I can also move my schedule around as needed. I will always ensure that your dog will feel loved and safe. Depending on the dog’s size or energy levels, I can play with them, sit when them and give them love, or take them on long walks. I’m fit and am up for anything!

Upon interviewing CJ and doing a meet and greet she answered questions, asked questions and we came up with a fairly flexible schedule we both agreed to. CJ did not attend to my home or dogs as we had discussed and among many other issues, left the house without cleaning up after herself, Not honoring the schedule she agreed to and more importantly admitting through text messages that she brought at least one other person into our hone and diesel grain alcohol when we specifically told her not to drink or have parties while she was house sitting were the biggest problems we had with this stay. She denies drinking our alcohol as well, because she said that they had their own supply, but the amount vodka we had in the home when we left compared to when we came home was greatly diminished. So I can’t say for sure what happens to it, but can speculate considering almost four containers of OJ from our refrigerator were consumed during her stay (she left all the trash so it was easy to see this had occurred.) We have exterior security cameras and were able to discuss the dogs schedule with her while we were gone but it wasn’t until the end of the stay that I told her that we knew through the security videos what was actually occurring vs what she was texting us that she became more attentive to the dogs needs. Before this on several occasions she would allow them outside for 2 minutes before leaving them for the day. I have never left a bad rover review and really thought about not reviewing her, but it’s hard to leave your home and pets with someone but when it turns into the house sitter not honoring the agreement made it makes for a stressful vacation and I wouldn’t want that to happen to someone else.

Cj has been great with our puppy! Reliable, on time, and attentive. We’ve booked daily repeating visits. And would definitely recommend her to friends and family.

Information CJ A. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how well they are potty trained, their energy levels, and if they are okay with other animals. I have smaller animals in my room but they can be put away when the dog visits my room. I love all breeds the same and really have no preferences. I've owned big, small, and medium dogs before and they're all unique and great in their own ways.

A typical day

With a high energy level dog, I would love to go on hikes, walks around the park, playing ball/fetch and spending time in my big backyard. With a lower energy dog, I enjoy sitting with them while I do homework, watching TV with them, taking them on slow, short strolls around my neighborhood, and just being by their side in general.
