I love spending time with animals but have worked at startups the last 5 years with little leftover time to have a fur-baby of my own. To fill the gap left by apartments that are not dog friendly, I try to volunteer at shelters, take care of my friend's and family's pets, and occasionally foster dogs and cats when the apartment allows. I want to get more involved in the care of animals in my community and reinforce training techniques I've picked up from the shelter and personal research. I'm comfortable with all breeds, shapes, and sizes, though I do have a special place in my heart for pitties and rescues (#dontbullymybreed). I feel genuine comfort and joy when I'm around your pets, and I hope you know that their safety and happiness is my top priority. I'll treat them as if they were my own. When I am house sitting, I try to make sure the pets get plenty of love, attention, and exercise in the morning, evening, and at bedtime. For drop-ins and dog walking, I like to chat with you first about their usual routine to make sure I'm keeping things consistent for you. I'm also happy to travel if it's a longer adventure they seek! I'd just modify the booking price depending on where we're going together and for how long. The Rover site doesn't allow me to edit weekends vs. weekdays so I'll say here that anytime of day on weekends is just fine. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet and greet. I look forward to working with you and your fur-family!
