Pet care experience

Check out my insta @genies_petsitting for more info! Hi there! I'm a full-time pet sitter who left the corporate world behind to follow my passion for animal care. My professional journey in pet care started at a local boarding and grooming facility. Since then, I happily transitioned to pet sitting for friends and family, and finally joined Rover in 2022. I have been caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and ages since I was young though. These days you can find me pampering my two beautiful cats and mostly blind rescue dog 🖤 When I'm not petsitting, I volunteer downtown at Michigan Humane; this enabled me to obtain my Fear Free Certification so I could have a better understanding of pet behavior and well-being. I recently completed an online pet CPR and first aid course to continue my education and help me care for your fur babies. I am also comprehensively insured, to further guarantee your pet's safety and security under my care 🐾

My partner and I constantly say how lucky we are to have met Genie through Rover as we have been regularly using her pet sitting services since May. We’ve used other pet sitters and family members in the past, but no one has been as gentle, thorough, and caring as Genie. And most importantly, our kitties love her! We cannot recommend her enough!

Safety, trust & environment

I follow all instructions left by the owners, with the safety and well-being of the pets my priority. I stick to your pet's normal routine. Always respectful of personal property and privacy while I'm in your home, I clean up after all pets while I am providing care, and never leave a mess behind.

A typical day

I will always follow your pet's normal routine to ensure minimal stress while you are away. I use positive reinforcement and lots of treats to make sure your beloved pets have as pleasant of a time as possible while you're away. Depending on your pet's preference, we could do mental enrichment games or playtime with a favorite toy, or both! If your kittycat is shy, I will give them space and talk quietly to them until they are more comfortable. I can brush or lightly groom your pet as needed. Unlimited cuddles and scritches are included (as tolerated) too!
