I make sure to give your pet my full attention and play with them or leave them be as needed with cats it could be both. I give them all the love they miss while you’re out of town

Information Gisela O. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behavioral needs that I should be aware of. I have experience with pets from all walks of life and would love to do a meet and greet to make sure I am a good fit. What are your Pet's favorite treats? Does your pet have specific medications? Is your pet friendly? Does your pet prefer certain foods? Would you like a meet and greet? What area of town do you live in?

A typical day

Walks or runs around Zilker. Playing time around the house, and feeding times. I usually do drop in visits but can schedule something to fit your needs

Pet care experience

I have no dogs or cat! I live in South Lamar. I have 100+ visits of experience doing drop-ins in Austin. In addition to that, I have years of experience caring for my own pets and friends' and families' pets. I will care for your pet as if it were my own whether that be to play, walk, feed, or administer medication I am there. I know all pets have their different needs and do what I can to make sure they feel like you never left. I used to own a FeLV herpes lymphoma cat that required a lot of medications and a close eye. As a pet sitter, I have plenty of experience watching cats from all walks of life and administering different types of medications, as well as caring for different needs. Available for the holidays! I treat every pet I care for as if it were my own. I work remotely, so I am able to provide care for your pet throughout the day and am happy to discuss specifics. I am also fully vaccinated and can take any precautions as needed. For walking, I am available all day in the local area, on weekdays and weekends. Home sitting is something I currently offers. I am always happy to do meet and greets.

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.
