Big Fan of the zoomies!

Pet care experience

I’ve been babysitting animals since I was fourteen years old—love all animals, both big and small, hairy and bald! Would describe myself as a golden retriever with the amount of energy I have! I am currently available to babysit anytime. I attend UIS and would love to take care of your fur baby. They will get all the love and snuggles you can imagine. I plan on keeping the animals inside when they are off a leash- when on a leash, to the park we go! I can ensure you that your animal will be safe in my smoke free home

She calmed all of my nerves when I had to leave my indie with her for a weekend. I received lots of pictures of them snuggling and playing. She took excellent care of him and I could tell that he loved being with her (and he can be picky with people).

Miss Damaris has an awesome, extensive experience caring for animals! Watching her help raise my dogs and cats over the years not only has established a trusting, comforting relationship between her and I, but also with my pets! Seeing how excited they become with just hearing me speak to her over the phone says a lot! She is very caring and compassionate about care for her animals , and will go above and beyond to make sure your fur babies feel loved and cared for!

Damaris is great! She’s very responsive and reliable. You can tell she really has a love for animals. She makes sure to send pictures throughout my dogs stay with her. She’s wonderful at what she does and I definitely recommend her to anyone!

Information Damaris V. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know ahead of time if your dog or cat has special needs because I would like to provide the best service possible to your pet! *just a note for any sitter interested* If you’re wanting me to babysit your dog and or cat, communication with me is very important. After you send a booking request to me, please take the time to message me in the chat, other wise I will be unsure if you booked your animals stay with another sitter, or still want me to sit

A typical day

I love being around any sort of animal, they are simply amusing to me. I love all animals, and will treat them all with so much love and respect! I love going to Washington park in springfield or even certain trails in Chatham to walk dogs!

I work part time, so spending time with animals is not an issue to me. I of course will let each owner I babysit for know what I end up doing for each animal!
