Pet care experience

Must love dogs (cats, fish, etc) ☺️

What can I say, I love animals! I also love to travel and have taken care of pets in the US, UK and the EU. I’m verified on Trusted House Sitters and Home Exchange. I’ve been a Rover owner and used the service frequently for my old dog, Marley. I’ve had dogs, cats, and iguanas. On my micro farm in Texas I have chickens, goats and pigs. I’ve also even cared for horses! My husband and I live in Royal Oak with our 7lb chihuahua (pictured). He’s super silly and cuddly and loves other animals, although is still learning how to play with dogs much bigger than he is. We’d love to have your puppers over or I’d be happy to drop on your purrfect little angel 🐾

Schedule

I used to use Rover in NYC as an owner and loved in the service and everyone I met. Now I want to help others go on holiday, or to work, and not worry about their furry little nuggets or chonks at home!

Safety, trust & environment

I am responsible, compassionate and trustworthy. I provide a friendly, loving environment for pets. I’m usually the person in the room even the most unfriendly or fearful animal will come to. I love animals and will treat your pet as if he or she was my own. Giving them love and connection or leaving them alone and just being there to make sure their food and water (or medicine) is taken care of, whatever they need.

Pets

A typical day

We can go on walks, to the park or dog run. We can play with toys or do belly rubs. We can cuddle up while I work or we watch TV. Happy to take your dog anywhere they love to go! For cat parents, happy to stay out of their way or give belly rubs, back scratches, provide laser light shows, you name it!

Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only

Of course I would like to know any special info about your cat or dog, their likes/dislikes, and any other info that you think will help me be a good care giver for him or her while you are away.
