Experienced & Nurturing Pet-Sitter!
Pet care experience
Available for last minute bookings! I grew up in a home with all kinds of dogs and cats. My family has had dogs of many different sizes including a cocker spaniel, labradoodle, dachshund, chihuahua, papillon, and beagle! Animals have been an integral part of my childhood and I still have a deep care for pets. As a high schooler I was a dog walker and house sitter for 2 years. Everyday after school I would go to take out my neighbor's dogs out for a 30 minute walk and care for them/house sit when the family was away for vacations. I also have 3 years of experience as a nanny (part-time during the school year and full-time during the summer). This involved pick-up from school, taking them in a timely manner to various after school activities and preparing food. I am a Florida State University graduate with a bachelor’s in Motion Picture Arts. In addition to pet care, I also work freelance in the film industry. I love learning new things and enjoy being able to express myself through art and storytelling. My experience with caring for others has taught me attentiveness and reliability. I can provide at least 30 minute walks (if desired), consistent and timely visits, and lots of loving attention for your pet! Overall, I believe that I offer good communication skills, patience and attention to detail when providing care to pets or house sitting. I hope to hear from you soon!
Reviews
Grace kept such good care of Helen, kept me updated, left my apartment spotless
Grace accepted a meet and greet the next night after I contacted her and stayed a few days later. I was very thankful for the quick response and her flexiability to meet with me. I have two big labs that are 9 and 11 years old and can be needy wanting attention immediately and she seemed to roll with it. Aknowledging them and listening to me. That is nice. She seemed very kind, easy going and attentive. When I returned home, she left me a nice note. My dogs seemed very happy and relaxed. That is exactly why I like to keep them in my home while away. I'll definately will use her again.
Grace was great. She took great care of both our dog and cat. Will definitely use her again!
Grace saved us at the last minute by agreeing to care for our adult lab when our original plans fell through. I had never used Rover service before. She was excellent. Timely responses, responsible, and sent photo updates regularly.

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always try to be very respectful of the space I’m occupying by observing the boundaries of the pet and/or the owner. I understand that some pets may take a little longer to warm up to a new person, and I have patience with this process. My motto is to leave a place better than I left it!
Information Grace S. would like to know about your pet
I love and have experience with all types of breeds! I like to know their walking preferences, what their favorite activities are, and how to make them feel most comfortable while I'm caring for them.
A typical day
I love to play with pets by using their favorite toys or taking them out for a walk! If they’re more energetic, I try to provide them with lots of activity to give them an outlet. Alternatively, if they’re older or more laid back, I try to give them plenty of affection and more gentle play.

I currently work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule that can fit around caring for your pet! I know that life can be hectic, so I strive to be an easy-to-book sitter for busy pet-parents.
