I already love your pet

Pet care experience

When I started Rover, I envisioned heaps of dogs and puppies and being best friends with them all because I'm a dog person. To my surprise, I found I was doing far more visits with cats. I love cats, dogs, birds, and pretty much anything with a furry tail. My current pets are a rescue doberman foster dog and a semi-feral outside cat living in my neighborhood. I try to make friends with all the outside cats and trap them to get them spayed or neutered so we don't contribute to additional homeless cats. I always require a meet & greet to make sure you, your animal, and I are a good fit. This means I am not available to new clients on short notice, but once I've watched your animal, I'm normally available with only a few hours' notice. I prefer clients who want daily visits for cats and a minimum of two visits per day for dogs to ensure your animal doesn't have to worry you forgot about her. Even if your cat or dog doesn't worry, I do. I take way too many photos and hope clients love them. Many pets affectionately refer to me as the Paparazzi lady. ❤️ 📷 Please reach out if I can help take care of your cat, dog, or any animal while you are away from home.

Information Kelly V. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your cat or dog has any special needs or any quirks so I can be prepared to keep her calm and safe. If your pet likes to bolt as soon as the door opens, please warn me and ensure the animal is wearing a collar with your contact information just in case, even if she doesn't normally wear one.

A typical day

I like to sit on the floor with cats both for ease of letting them check me out and see that I'm friendly and also to get good eye level photos. I love a cat who wants to play or one that wants to lie down to be petted while purring like an engine. I let your cat or dog's mood determine what works best that day.
