Hello, and thanks for taking the time to scrutinize me a bit more! It's absolutely important to feel you can trust and connect with any person you're charging with the care of your furry family members - dog, cat, or otherwise. Good chemistry is key. In fact, I believe animals have a sensitivity to the basic instincts underlying all humans. They know when they're in good hands probably before you do. Not to mention all the other mysterious skills they possess... I've lived with a variety of dogs and cats ranging from Toto to Marmaduke in size and scope of personality for 30 years. I inherited extreme patience from my father, and it has served me well with both 2 and 4-legged creatures. And now I'm sharing that experience with households and families wherever I can. I live a life of flexibility, which works in concert very well with my availability - especially for those events and appointments that invariably crop up from day to day for busy people. I hope I can help YOU. Please contact me, and let's find out. NOTE: I'm a big fan of detailed texting or phone exchanges, in addition to an ultimate interviewing meet-and-greet process, prior to actual care. In this way, chemistry (or lack thereof) can be established between your family and myself. And, equally important, specific expectations by both parties can be discussed. For example - The definition of "overnight house-sitting" varies widely from potential client to potential Rover care providers. Best to hash out that in advance, and thus avoid wasting anyone's time or effort.
