Care For Your Four-legged Friends

Pet care experience

Hey there! I'm Jovani, and I'm absolutely crazy about cats and dogs. Their well-being is something I deeply care about, and being around them brings me so much happiness. Over the past three years, I've had the incredible opportunity to work at three different veterinary clinics and hospitals. This experience has allowed me to interact with dogs and cats of all kinds of personalities, shapes, and sizes. Not only have I been surrounded by these amazing creatures at work, but I've also had the privilege of growing up with dogs and cats my entire life. I currently have two beautiful cats of my own. They've always been considered a part of my family, no matter their size.

Jovani dogsat my dog for 4 days, with specific instructions not to leave Henry for more than 6 hours at a time, give him medication and take him on a 30 minute walk prior to leaving, and leave him with a stuffed kong and some treat puzzles. After returning home, I checked the log on my keypad log and she left Henry for 10.5 hours one day, 12 hours the next, and left almost an hour early on the last day. Checking the pre-portioned medications I left, Henry only got the medication he needs to be left alone once. The pre-filled kong and puzzles were in the same place I left them, seemingly unused. Outside of these long absences, the longest time between leaving and keying back in was 15 minutes, so Henry was not taken on a 30 minute walk the entire booking. When I asked is she had taken Henry anywhere during the booking (my attempt to give the benefit of the doubt and see if Henry was with her during these long absences) she told me no and that she left him alone once for four hours. When I let Jovani know that the logs from the keypad did not match what she told me and asked if she had an explanation (again, to give the benefit of the doubt), she did not reply so after 48+ hours I reached out to Rover support to request a full refund. Henry has needed additional medication, and K have had to alter my work schedule to prevent a major setback with his separation anxiety training. It has taken us years of training to get him as comfortable as he was before this weekend.

Jovani was responsive and arrived to walk our dog for the first few days. Then proceeded to text me on the 4th day saying she wouldn’t be able to continue walking our dog as it was taking away from her walking other dogs. She claimed that there was miscommunication however, upon reading and going back through texts and messages there wasn’t.

I thoroughly enjoy engaging both cats and dogs in physical and mental activities. We can have a blast playing various games, while the dogs can have a delightful time sniffing all the intriguing scents in my neighborhood and exploring a nearby spacious park. As for the cats, I like to hide little treats around the house or place them on a treat mat to keep them entertained.

I currently have a work-from-home part time that gives me the flexibility to be anywhere. It would be an absolute pleasure for me to keep your furry friend (whether it's a pup or a kitty) company and active during the day when you can't be there. I do this already for some of my friends and family who need help with their pets during the week. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and even house sitting. Let me know how I can help!
