Safety, trust & environment

I follow your pet’s usual routine, provide feeding, walks, or playtime, and make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for in their own home.

Information Devika M. would like to know about your pet

I sometimes like to know a pet’s personality and energy level so I make a plan on how I will spend my time with them.

A typical day

I like keeping pets happy by matching their energy. For dogs, that means walks, fetch, and playtime; for cats, interactive toys and calmer hangouts. I will pay attention to their routine and personality so they feel comfortable.

Grew up with dogs, in my undergrad

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a psychology undergraduate and lifelong dog lover who grew up with dogs and a playful tuxedo cat. When caring for dogs, I use calm, positive-reinforcement strategies from my psychology studies for a stress-free experience as the dog gets to know me. I have lots of experience with senior dogs and am ready to give them the extra support they need.

Devika is a very kind, conscientious person. She has helped to care for my dog who adored her. She genuinely enjoyed simply petting and playing with her. She had no issues even when the dog became elderly with cleaning up after potty accidents and walking her slowly due to joint issues. Currently she cares for my cat when I need help. The cat trusts her completely and will run to greet her and sit on her lap. She helps with feeding and the litter box. Devika is very trustworthy and loving. We love having her care for our pets!

Devika is wonderful with pets. I have a cat that usually runs away when people show up at the house. When Devika first came, the cat went right to her. Devika is responsible and caring and loves to take time for animals.
