I have taken care of friend’s pets (cats and dogs) in exchange for housing on vacation, and have had quite a few rover jobs including dog walking and catsitting (drop offs and housesitting) I love to be around animals :) I am a trustworthy and communicative pet carer. You can count on me to be responsible when it comes to your animal and home. Dealbreakers for hosting dogs : 1) the dog needs to be able to go up and down stairs by itself. We have the entire building and therefore in order to get from one room to another going up/down is required and there are no barriers to prevent the dog from going off on its own. It needs to be independent otherwise it is a dangerous environment for them 2. Noise needs to be more or less under control. A few barks here and there is normal, but if it is excessive, I simply can’t have it due to living with people. 3. I do not take dogs for more than 2 nights. 4. Your dog needs to get along with all other humans, men women and children. Getting along with other dogs is preferred 5. Please don’t just drop your dog off with me. I’m amazed at the amount of people who will just drop their dog off and not even check out where I live. Give yourself the time to come up and have coffee, check out my appartment, and explain to me a few things I should know. Thanks for reading. Please also consider house sitting before boarding ! I understand one can be skeptical of letting a stranger into their home with out surveillance, but I’m open to a visit beforehand and pet surveillance cameras being on during the stay.
