I’ve enjoyed all the critters I’ve taken care of thru Rover; mostly dogs so far, followed in frequency by cats, but also chickens and even hamsters. I have done dog walks as well as drop ins for a number of satisfied clients. I feel honored every time I'm re-booked; as I know that means I met or exceeded expectations last time for that client. My experience with animals ranges from bottle feeding puppies to medication administration for senior dogs. I love all pets, and have experience with rabbits, goats, horses, chickens, amphibians, fish... I enjoy doing training activities with dogs. I believe in positive rewards; whether food treats or positive touch like a scratch behind the ears. I would most likely bring my 10 year old kiddo to a booking unless you specify that your pet doesn’t do well with kids… which is sometimes the case for animals due to previous negative experiences. If the pet doesn’t have experience with minors; we’ll gladly socialize them in a safe and gentle way. Kiddo wants to be a vet or vet tech someday, so a love of animals is strong there. Happy to follow all instructions. Will give positive behavior rewards if you provide them and would like that. The more specific you are with expectations the better. I hope to reinforce for your dog whatever they know from walks with you. If you make them sit before crossing a street, then by all means, I’ll do that too. And just to repeat; My child does not have to come along; you can specify if you have a preference that it just be myself without kiddo or if them coming is alright. I am happy to be outside on a dog walk rain or shine; I’ll be happy to be your pet-care provider!
