loving caretaker of kids and pets
Pet care experience
Hello everyone, my name is Jovian (Jovi for short). I am a nanny, a baker, and a mother of two dogs of ages 9 and 15, and two kids of ages 2 and 4. I am looking for supplemental income to contribute to my children's seperate accounts to teach them about earning money for work. I love being a caretaker and want to make the most of our time by extending myself for pet care as well. i was raised in the greater seattle area on a goat farm with lots of chickens, dogs, cats, ducks, and bunnies. so my care experience is not limited to typical housepets. i am comfortable with care for house pets, farm animals and exotic pets with detailed instruction. my oldest dog is 15yrs old now, so I'm also familiar and comfortable with senior care. I also have informal experience in puppy care- potty training, teaching tricks, and basic obedience training as well. It would be a pleasure to help a few families out with pet care in a busy work week while also enriching my children's first experiences with exchange relationships within their community.
Reviews
Jovian was very kind and took a liking to my cat right away. She was very responsive and communicated well so I will certainly use her services again!
Very easy to work with and very responsive!
Jovi was so great! She checked in on our cat Momo while we were out of town and gave such ease of mind. She communicated promptly and provided pictures and status updates with every check-in. Thank you so much!
Jovian is the best. Great communication! Super attentive.
About Jovian A.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I offer all pets a baseline of affection, making sure they're fed and have water, taking them out for bathroom breaks, playing ball, making sure theyre dry when they go inside if its wet out, etc. for more dedicated care I request we meet in person to go over specific care instructions. For things like senior care, administering medicine, or disability, instructions must be written down either at the house or in the rover app.
Information Jovian A. would like to know about your pet
It's important for me to be aware of any triggers your dog may have while on a walk so I can maintain in control as best as possible. If your dog is a rescue, I would like to know what special behaviors need to be accommodated. I like to keep an open line of communication with anyone I caretake for so even if we run into a small issue, I make sure to communicate about it so we can stay on the same page and they recieve the same care they do at home.
A typical day
most of my clients are for drop in visits, but I love to take my own dogs out to the Forrest or the beach. my old one is too frail to go on her own, but she's under 10lbs so I put her in a baby wrap on my chest so she can still be included.
