Safety, trust & environment

As someone who you have trusted with your fur baby, I understand my responsibility for your pet’s safety and well-being during my time with them. I believe anyone who is trusted to take care of an animal should behave how you would want someone to care for your own pets. Not only do these companions deserves to be respected and well cared for but their humans deserve the peace of mind knowing that they’re being well looked after.

A walk a day keeps the vet away🥳

Pet care experience

My love for animals as a child has grown into adulthood, now working in veterinary medicine. I have experience with pet sitting for friends, family and clients in a professional setting. I am comfortable feeding, administering medications, walking, or just keeping your fur babies company while you’re away. I am trained in veterinary CPR and first aid, giving you peace of mind while they’re under my supervision. I am currently a cat mom to two senior cats and have grown up around L/XL breeds and am comfortable around them as long as they are friendly with people. PLEASE NOTE: My veterinary background helps me recognize changes in behaviour and provide attentive care during walks and visits. Rover services do not replace veterinary care and I can NOT give veterinary advice and or perform medical treatments outside of a clinical setting.
