With Professional and Loving Care♥️

Pet care experience

• Please give me a couple hours to respond, I am a teacher and my day hours are very busy! Please do not send a request without intention to book, or without reading all information below. Thank you! • . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I am a passionate animal lover, and am comfortable with animals of all sizes and most temperaments. I am patient and respectful of all animals and their needs/boundaries. My goal is to provide care at a professional, intimate level and connect with the pet and their family. Getting quality pet care shouldn’t force you to break the bank. I am proud to offer affordable services that will go above and beyond your expectations, and forever change your definition of what pet sitting care should entail. Don’t send your furbaby to a boarding shelter— let me care for them in the comfort of their own space. I am able to keep you updated throughout any walk, sitting, or drop-in, including pictures of your pet while they are in my care! Become part of my Rover Fur Family today ♥️🐾 ➝ I have personal experience with rasing multiple dogs + cats, as well as reptiles like chameleons and gecko/lizards. I also have professional experience as a pet caretaker, and previous experience through Rover alongside that. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 💌 Meet and Greets: M&Gs are not necessary but are preferred! If forgoing an in-person meet & greet, a video call is mandatory to view the living space and observe the pet. Prices are sometimes discussed further as Rover Pricing is not always accurate! . . . . . . . . . . . . . Additional Info: ✎ I am currently a full time teacher at an early education STEM school. I am pursuing degrees in Child Development, Bio Premedical Science, and ASL. Studying zoology and evolutionary biology in my free time is a big hobby of mine!🦖🦈 ☼PA State Police Criminal History Clearance ☼PA Child Abuse History Clearance ☼National Sex Offender Registry Clearance ☼FBI Criminal History Clearance ☀︎CPR/First Aid/AED Pediatric + Adult Certified . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Paw-licies🐾 & Procedures: • EXCEPTIONS to service include same-sex littermate siblings, or non-littermate siblings that fight and/or are aggressive with one another. I will not be able to provide care for these situations. This does not include situations in which only food aggression is present. •ALL drop-ins are 1hr long. I do not offer 30min visits, as they routinely take an hour for proper care and completion. Alternatively, you can book a 30min Drop-In with a 30min walk, for $31. •In order for your request to be confirmed and processed as cat care (the cheaper rate), you MUST have more cats than dogs. If you have only one of each, your request must be submitted as dog care, with an additional cat. •In order for any request to process, ALL pets involved in care must be added separately to your booking and charged accordingly. This is the only way the Rover Guarantee protects your pet and booking in the event of an emergency. ⮑ In addition: • Overnight care (House Sitting) commences when I get off from work (≈7pm-10pm) and ends in the morning before I return to work (≈8am-12pm). If your pet needs daytime care alone or in addition to overnight care, Drop-Ins must be added to your booking to accommodate. Full daytime care (8hrs) in your home is $144 for one pet. Please understand that all sitters sacrifice their time for low pay to care for your animals, including staying away from their own pets for extended periods of time. No one is entitled to any sitter’s full 24 hour day without proper compensation. ➞A submitted booking request is acknowledgment and acceptance of the above policies. Failure to abide by these policies could result in a non-refundable cancellation.

A typical day

I love giving animals the necessary stimulation they need to thrive on a daily basis. For a cat, that may look like taking a nice relaxing walk in a pet stroller or on a harness, and then coming inside to play a hunt-and-find treat game. For a dog, this may look like taking a long walk, playing fetch or find-it games, and puzzle lick-mats for good mental stimulation!
