Pet care experience
As a person who has grown up their entire life surrounded by pets (dogs, cats, hamsters, fish), I am incredibly comfortable around animals. I think that qualifies me to provide a service that clearly demonstrates the care and enthusiasm that an owner themselves is primed to look out for. I’m familiar with animal body language-thanks to experience, and Cesar Milan- to know where animals’ boundaries are, as well as the most effective way forward to handle them on walks or drop ins. I have a genuine enthusiasm for spending time with animals, so I see taking care of your pets as an enjoyable learning experience in addition to being a job. I also consider myself flexible in terms of scheduling, and would be more than willing to accommodate to best meet you and your pet’s needs! I’m a rising sophomore at UT Austin, so my availability is limited to this summer season. However, don’t hesitate to reach out to find out more about me, my experience, or my scheduling; I’d love to help out while I’m here!
Reviews
As someone who has known Maggie for a long time, and worked alongside her, I trust that any animal she’s looking after is in good hands. In a professional sense, she is always ready to work and will do so with the utmost regard. I’ve had Maggie dog-sit multiple times, and she has always handled my dog with care and gone out of her way to make sure she’s looked after and comfortable. Additionally, as one of her friends, I saw Maggie being asked to return by multiple families for pet care. Whether they were on vacation, or needed someone to look after their animals for a few afternoons, Maggie is always responsible and reliable. I would absolutely recommend Maggie to anyone looking for a dog sitter or walker!
Yes, I happen to Maggie's dad, but I've seen how well she treats animals her whole life. I've always had dogs and felt it was important for my children to have them growing up as well. The lessons of responsibility, empathy, caring for another animal all manifest in Maggie, partly because of the loving relationship she's had with our pets during her lifetime. She knows how dogs behave and is very considerate without being a pushover. I know she would be great as a dog sitter and think she would find it as fulfilling as the dogs themselves.
Maggie comes to mind when I think of an animal lover. For her high-schools volunteer services, she would go to the local shelter to help walk and socialize the animals. Maggie definitely has the upper-hand with experience, given the countless dogs of different sizes and temperaments she’s encountered through volunteering, and the more familiar ones she’ll look after on a regular basis in our community as well (including a dog and cat of her own)! I think she’d make a great addition to the rover community!
