Pet care experience

Lifelong animal lover & caretaker!

I've had different pet dogs and cats (including a puppy and kittens), fish, hermit crabs, and birds since I was 6 years old, and I currently have pet mice and a leopard gecko. I also have some experience with separation anxiety in dogs. I volunteered for years at Days End Farm Horse Rescue where I worked with horses, miniature donkeys, and goats, and I currently volunteer at the Montgomery County Animal Services & Adoption Center with cats and small mammals. Since I was a kid, I've been pet sitting and dog walking for family and friends when they need it. Sadly I don't have any cats or dogs now due to allergies in my home - that's a big reason why I'm wanting to do more dog walking and pet sitting, so I can hang out with animals more and have fun! I'm excited to help out with anyone who needs pet care, whether it's with dogs, cats, fish, birds, reptiles, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, barnyard animals, etc. I do not have as much experience with birds, fish, and barnyard animals other than horses, but I am ready to learn how you take care of your pet/s and do exactly as you ask! I am also ready to learn to take care of a species I have not had prior experience with.

Safety, trust & environment

Every client I have worked for knows that I am a trustworthy and responsible person. I am happy to play and interact with, feed, water, walk, let out, and clean up after your pet/s when needed, and their health and happiness comes first. I follow directions given to me for pet and home care exactly, and I have never and will never betray the trust of those I work for. It's about the pets - that's what I'm here for!

Eillonwy has just finished 2 weeks of care for our 3 cats. A long time -- and we returned to a happy and well-tended cat-pack. Eillonwy sent us daily photos and updates. Her work is timely and complete. She gave special care to our cat that needs medications. We have full confidence in her professionalism and her attention to detail and to the cats' needs. And she understands what cat parents need to hear about (and see) when they're away. Thanks Eillonwy, for such attentive care of our cats.

Our three cats continue to join us in thanking Eillonwy for her caring, thorough cat-minding these past 5 days - especially our Mischa, who need extra attention for a medical condition. Eillonwy keeps us posted on the cats, gives them individual attention, and stays up to date with all the details. Well-done, once again!!

Our 3 cats are repeat customers of Eillonwy, whom they regard (and we agree) as a cat-whisperer and fantastic caregiver for them. Eillonwy is timely with her visits, sends helpful pictures so we see what our kitties are up to, and asks questions/provides information so that we know they're doing great. We heartily recommend her as a responsible, attentive, and feline-friendly sitter.

Eillonwy cared for our 3 cats for the third time this past week and they're happy, well-fed, and eager to see her again. Eillonwy's great about keeping us posted while we're gone, and letting us know what the cats are up to. She's got a great relationship with them. Thanks, E!

Eillonwy is a caring, careful cat-sitter -- this is her 2nd time sitting for our 3 elderly cats. We are grateful for the attention she gives to our feline buddies, and the reports she sends to update us. Thanks again, Eillonwy! The cats look forward to their next appointments with you!

I'd like to know ahead of time the number and species of pets I'll be caring for of course, as well as their age and any special needs they have and medicine I will need to administer to them (I am always willing to learn how to best care for them!) and if they have any tendencies I'd need to look out for (such as destructive behaviors, going to the bathroom on the floor, over grooming, biting, scratching, escaping, etc.). Let me know everything you would like me to do for them, so I can prepare in advance.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
