Pet care experience
I have been a pet sitter for two years. I sat for one pit/pointer in his home. I also sat for two greyhounds in their home. Responsibilities for pit/pointer included walking him twice a day, feeding him and keeping him company. When sitting for the greyhounds I mostly sat in the afternoon for about 4-5 hours. I did sit one three day weekend. Also, cared for a cat in her home. Fed her, brushed her, played with her, and kept her company. Growing up I had my share of different pets. I had cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits and gerbils. I am comfortable being around animals. I understand how important your pet/s are to you. My hope is that you will feel as comfortable with me taking care of your pet.
Reviews
Despina is a marvelous person and marvelous caregiver to all creatures, human and canine. I would trust her with my dog Ben any time any where. She is one of his favorite people in the world. Perhaps his very favorite. She is trustworthy, affectionate, and know how to keep an animal safe, stimulated, and healthy. You could not find a more loving or careful person to care for your animal in your home or out of it, day or night or for long stays. She is beyond reproach and I am hardly the only person who will recommend her this way. Because of Despina, my dog Ben has become known as the mayor (canine) of Passyunk Avenue, has become welcome in more shops and boutiques and avenues than I could possibly take him to, myself. Because of Despina I have been able to leave town on emergency visits to my mother, or finish the schooling that I have needed. Despina is someone who will go the extra mile for your animal. I recommend her unconditionally as Ben's friend and as my own. Sincerely, L.V.
Despina is a loving and caring person who would make a great addition to your team. Among her more salient qualities is her admiration for animals. I find that she is very attentive, playful and loving towards dogs which she has stated is definitely one of her favourite animals. I have found in very people the connection that she has with animals. With her smile and personality she makes the world a better place not only for dogs but for humans as well.
Despina recently cat and house sat for me and my husband. Although Rover is a dog sitting site, I can say with confidence that Despina is a responsible and loving caregiver. Despina and I have been friends for twenty years, and I know how much she loves animals. She has always been wonderful with my cat(s). Despina texted me updates about my cat Beatrix, and left a note with details for us to find when we got home. Most importantly, it was clear upon our arrival that Beatrix had been well tended. I recommend Despina as a pet sitter without reservation.
