Might fall in love with your animal

Pet care experience

Hi I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, and geckos for over ten years and have been on Rover for about four years now. I’m very flexible and hard working. I’m used to bigger dogs, but love dogs of all sizes and all different kinds of cats. I hope to build relationships with animals with this job and just have fun. I love animals of all kinds. I hope to learn the personalities of your animals and give them what they need to be happy and well looked after. I would love to walk/watch your pets for you when you need it. I know how hectic life can get and we can’t always be there all the time for those we love. I look forward to working with you and your animals :)

I always introduce myself before interacting with any animals, slowly developing those relationships. Starting with a sniff of the hand, showing them I am the one providing them with food and care for the time being, and building that trust over time.

Information Gwen Y. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know a bit about your animal, what is their personality, what should I do to gain their trust when meeting them at first, what medications do they take, is there anything I should know about their reactions to loud noises, etc.

A typical day

I always make sure I have enrichment time with any animal I watch as well as daily walks for dogs. Petting, playing, and walking are important to me because of their energy and emotional needs.
