_____________________________ MY SCHEDULE: _____________________________ It is extremely important that I am able to honor your needs in the time frame requested. Here are some important things to note prior to requesting my services: • I have a separate job outside of animal care. Because of this, I have to be gone anywhere from 5-7 hours Monday through Friday. My schedule works best with those who are able to be left alone for AT LEAST 5-8 hours at a time. There are days where I may have leniency, and I will alert you of that! • I can only do evening (5pm and later) Meet & Greets, drop-ins, walks and arrival time for house sittings during the weekdays (Monday - Friday). • I have more availability during the weekend (Saturday - Sunday).

_____________________________ SAFETY _____________________________ Safety is top priority! I triple check that all doors and windows are sealed shut (unless instructed otherwise). I have no issues crating your companion(s) if instructed to do so. I NEVER leave your companion(s) unattended, or without a leash. I have 20+ ft leashes to allow for some freedom! I never commit to something that may put your companion(s) in harm's way. For our fun adventures, I always ask for your permission beforehand. I come equipped with 2 FULLY PACKED animal medical kits on me at all times. I have animal deterrents (which I bring on walks and adventures), extra collars and leashes, pet seatbelts, animal poison control number and more! I also research your area to make sure I can find temporary emergency shelters and 24/7 animal ERs (if not already provided). _____________________________ ADDITIONAL INFO: _____________________________ • I offer dog bathing, and dog and cat nail trims! (Fees apply.) • Constant Care can only be provided on the weekend (Friday - Sunday). (Prices vary.) • Fearful companion that requires one-on-one time? I can do that! • Enrichment Only Visits for dogs and cats coming soon! _____________________________ THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME! I look forward to meeting with you and your companion(s)! (ALL MATERIAL AS DISPLAYED AND DETAILED ON THIS ACCOUNT IS PROPERTY OF "Sitterly Love Pet Care LLC" ONLY SINCE 2019. Please be vigilant of copycat sitters!)

Information Destiny V. would like to know about your pet

Behavior (overall, and also with people and other dogs), any medication(s), any medical condition(s), any allergies, and what they normally do everyday. Also, feeding (scheduled or not, how much), triggers, (loud sounds, certain people/dogs, etc.), walks (how long, set distance?, how often, etc.), and how is good and bad behavior treated? (All these and more can be answered on the Intake Form!) All breeds welcomed!

A typical day

I want to do whatever your companion is comfortable with! If you have any ideas, just let me know. I would like to keep it mainly the same routine you already have, as most animals thrive off consistency. Still, here is a list of things I can do if interested (and if permitted): High Energy Pups: Head over to a dog-friendly trail. Take a splash on a hot summer day. Go for a run/jog/hike. Play fun, stimulating games! __________________________________________________________ Medium Energy Pups: Play games. Learn/practice tricks. Go out for a nice walk. Go for car rides. __________________________________________________________ Low Energy Pups: Netflix and cuddle! Sit outside and enjoy the view. Cuddles, cuddles and more cuddles!

Pet care experience

Hi! Please be sure to read my profile thoroughly prior to requesting-especially the “Onboarding Process” and “Policies” sections. Whether you are vacation ready, work long hours, or just need time to unwind, you can depend on me! Sitterly Love Pet Care's mission is to provide your companions the ultimate care with compassion, purpose and excellence. In doing so, I strive to exceed all expectations and enrich the lives of you and your companions. PST! New to Rover? Wanna save $$$? Message me for a first time discount code, regardless of booking! _____________________________ MY EXPERIENCE: _____________________________ • Destiny has worked at an animal hospital, where her responsibilities were caring for boarders (consisting mainly of cats and dogs), maintaining records of behavior, feeding, allowing for bathroom time, trimming nails, bathing dogs and giving medications. • Destiny currently works full-time as an Animal Care Technician, specializing in rodent care (with some marmoset care included)! She is also partaking in a Socialization & Enrichment Program at her job-where she is entrusted with providing care and specialized enrichment to Guinea Pigs and Rabbits! • Destiny has interned at the Aark Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center. In addition to this, she is CPR & First Aid certified through ProTrainings. • Destiny has experience in administering medicine for both cats and dogs. • Destiny has 10 years and counting of experience with animals (mainly dogs and cats). • Destiny has worked at a Doggie Daycare & Boarding business, where she was taught to watch for dog behavior, and understand temperaments and play styles. She also learned how to detect signs of anxiety, stress, and aggression in dogs, and how to handle them! In addition to this, she learned to manage a large group of dogs (different sizes and breeds) alone. • I AM A LICENSED & INSURED BUSINESS! _____________________________ MAIN POLICIES _____________________________ The following policies ensure that both parties achieve the smoothest and most pleasant service. Be sure to carefully review all and ask for clarification if need be! • I offer services on a “first come, first serve” basis. If you wish to be locked in the schedule, you must officially book the stay (this includes finalizing the Onboarding Process). Under no circumstances should you assume that you are covered without a completed invoice. • Take a moment to review my cancellation policy. (On desktop-this is located on the bottom left under the calendar. For app users-this is located under the “Services” tab under the calendar.) • TIMEFRAMES: It is required that clients select from the four (4) timeframe options, unless pet(s) require medical care, in which a one-hour window will be applied. The timeframes available are as described below: MORNING: 6-10AM MIDDAY: 11-2PM AFTERNOON: 2-5PM EVENING: 6-9PM _____________________________ ONBOARDING PROCESS: _____________________________ All prospective clients must go through the onboarding process prior to the start of any service(s). The following is what is required (in order): • Intake Form (powered through Google Forms) • Review and Sign Service Agreement & Vet Release Forms • In-Person Meet & Greet *A phone or video chat can be scheduled in replacement of the Intake Form should you have questions/comments/concerns and/or need clarification.* The Onboarding Process allows me to better understand your companion(s), your expectations and go over my ways of operating. Please note: The onboarding process is NOT a guarantee to my services. Again, this is simply for all parties to meet and understand each other’s expectations and needs. *Depending on the situation, I may request a trial walk. This helps me get a better idea of their walking behavior and walking needs. A trial stay may be considered if need be for a fee.*
