Pet loving college student!

Pet care experience

My family has had boxer dogs since I was 7 years old, at times there were 2 in the house. I’ve also had cats around me my entire life as family pets. Along with that my roommates have always had pets that I get to enjoy being around but this year is the first year without): I have pet sat for friends, neighbors, and families around town who have asked me. I love to take the dogs on walks and play in the backyard with them, and of course cuddling with all the pets when they’re missing their humans! **However that being said, any costly damage will be at the owners expense, such a chewing up walls or destroying furniture** I am currently a full time student at Purdue University and my schedule is very open. There wouldn’t be more than an hour or two a day that I would be gone for classes, and I would ensure they’re taken care of fully before I leave. I walk around the neighborhood or campus daily for exercise and spend a lot of time in my back yard, I’d love for your pet to join! I have a fenced yard and a neighbor dog that often comes to play, if you were okay with it I would make sure to set up a puppy play date. Along with that, I have plenty of space for a crate if needed, and a large back room with a door that they could roam freely in while I’m at class. I always send pictures of your pets while you are away so you don’t miss them too much.

Maeve was wonderful with my senior boy.. She took great care of him and kept me updated while I was away.

Maeve was great with our pup. Lucy is a little timid around new people and Maeve made her feel right at home.

Excellent stay! Quick response and took care of our hyper German Shepherd with no problems. Even sent us the cutest pics of her playing with a new friend and with Halloween pumpkins. This was my first experience with Rover and Maeve and it was top-notch. Our doggo had the best time and we felt secure.

Maeve took care of my crazy rambunctious 3-year-old cocker spaniel, Bruce, on multiple occasions. He is a ball of energy and yet it seemed like every time Maeve took care of Bruce, he came back exhausted yet happy. She always sends adorable pictures of my dog, one of which I used as my lock screen for multiple months. I highly recommend Maeve to all dog owners, she is such a loving and responsible person.

Information Maeve K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know what you and your dog(s) need from me! I’d like to know if there are any negative behaviors you’re attempting to keep your dog away from (coming up on the couch, chewing, etc.) and the best ways your dog likes to be praised for being good! Whether it be treats or belly rubs, I love to reinforce positive behavior in the pets I’m watching. I’d also like to know any food preferences/allergies/concerns so I can keep your dog healthy!

A typical day

If your dog is up for it, I prefer to get them on 2 medium length walks a day or a long one and a short one. I also love to play with toys in the backyard or in the house. The Purdue forest is a beautiful area to walk dogs and I love taking them there!
