My background in Law Enforcement and the Military, including 5+ years of professional pet care owning my own business allow me a different perspective when watching pets. Every visit includes a security check which encompasses checking all doors and windows to ensure they are locked, checking all faucets to ensure the water was shut off. Please note: this does not include any doors that are closed when I arrive. As a way to protect your privacy, if any doors are closed when I arrive they will stay closed. I can check mail if you request me to do so. If you receive any packages on your doorstep while you're away, I will bring in any packages that are addressed to you and leave them on a counter. Every visit includes a Rover report card with photos. I do require a consultation or meet and greet ahead of any planned stay. I prefer to meet at your residence so you can ensure your pet warms up to me, that you're comfortable with me caring for your pets while you're away and so you can show me daily care for your pets, including food location, how much food they get, location of any and all pet supplies including a pet carrier and/or leashes. If you'd prefer to meet away from your residence, we can schedule that first, however I do require one meet and greet at your residence.
