All Animals Welcome <3

Pet care experience

Animal care is my passion and I am currently working toward a degree in Animal Science. I hope to go into Animal Rehabilitation in the future to help elderly, wounded, and disabled animals live their best possible lives. I’ve been sitting since I was a teenager and have gained quite a few loyal customers (in and outside of Rover) for reference. I prefer to do overnight pet sitting because it gives me time to bond with the little ones on their own time and in their own stomping grounds. Nevertheless, drop-ins are absolutely an option, as is dog walking. My schedule changes frequently but I’m very good at keeping my Rover Calendar updated. I can assure you that you will be able to leave your best friends with me and enjoy a worry-free vacation, as they will be well taken care of. I am very attentive and I love every minute of this job. I have experience with animals of all ages and many medical conditions. I’ve also looked after fish, bunnies, chickens, ferrets, snakes, lizards, and I even know how to care for exotic birds. I hope you’ll choose me to look after your family member(s) and I look forward to meeting my new friends. I also work as a secretary assistant at my parents’ towing company in Fairfield when they need a hand. However, my work as a pet sitter takes priority. I really appreciate it when animal parents write out an itinerary for me: Feeding times, potty schedule, medication info, emergency numbers, preferred vet numbers, neighbor/family names and numbers, passwords, security codes, and anything else I could possibly need to know. This is definitely not a requirement but I find that it makes everyone (including myself and maybe the animal) feel a little more at ease. My goal is to make sure that you and your pet are as comfortable and safe as possible.

Hayley took care of our dog at our home recently for an extended period. She provided excellent communication daily, including sending us pictures of Benji. She walked him, gave him his daily meds, and smothered him with love and attention. This was her second stay with Benji and we know he got excellent care. In addition to paying attention to Benji’s needs, she also took excellent care of our house and followed all instructions thoroughly. Our home was spotless when we returned, and she went the extra mile by washing sheets and towels. We highly recommend Haley for pet/home sitting!

Safety, trust & environment

I do my absolute best to keep to the animals’ normal schedule so they feel almost as though their parents never left. I want the animals that I care for to be as content and comfy as possible.

Information Hayley M. would like to know about your pet

I need to know about medical issues and medications that the animal might need during my time with them. I also like to know as much as I can about the animal’s temperament and what he/she likes (favorite toys, belly rubs, treats, games, etc.) and dislikes (scary gardeners, sensitive areas on their body, specific things that make them uncomfortable, etc.)

A typical day

If I’m asked to walk a pup, I like to take them on the same walking route that their owners do BUT if there is a park or open area nearby, we’re definitely going there to play. I do fetch, tug-o-war, wrestling, everything. And if you’re not looking to have me walk your pet, we’ll just have fun at home doing the same type of stuff (if they’re into that). I also LOVE to snuggle and watch movies with the animals. It’s truly a dream job.

Pet sitting is my daily/weekly routine. As this is my main job, every client I take on gets 100% of my attention. I do take time here and there to run quick errands (like grocery shopping or picking up my mail) while sitting but it’s never longer than 2 hours. However, if a client asks me to be with their animal 24/7, I will do that. If an emergency arises, I will inform the owner as soon as possible, as well as Rover, so that the little one will still be in good hands. **Unfortunately, for new clients, I cannot accept house sitting bookings that are less than 2 nights.**
