I am a recent graduate student from MSMU looking for work in the cybersecurity/IT field, so currently pet sitting is my full time job as it helps fund my exam preps and exams to obtain certifications! I have ferrets back at home so I’m typically driving back home for a few hours to pop in and spend time with them before they go back to sleep for a majority of the day (they free roam in their room and someone is always at home with them!) I am typically flexible and sometimes able to accommodate certain dates that appear unavailable. I would also like to note that I sometimes prefer to bring someone along if accepting night walks, just to be in the car or walk alongside for safety purposes! I’m more than happy to work around your preferences such as staying overnight for sitting! Temporary: I apologize for not being able to accommodate walks to my new pet clients. I cannot fully walk new bigger size dogs as of now since I had a recent foot injury which leaves me not able to fully apply pressure to my right foot.

Safety, trust & environment

While visiting your home, I will typically allow your pet to approach me first or let them sniff out all the different animal scents on my clothing. I am very respectful of others' homes, and I will place anything back to where I found it. Additionally, if you need extra help with clean-up or small chores, I can help out while at your home! I follow instructions, and I always give updates with photos, and will ask questions if needed. If you request not to be updated frequently, I'll follow that too!

Information Marianna Q. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your Pet companion has anything I should watch out for, including allergies, behavioral issues, or medication! I want your furry best friend to be comfortable during our time together!

A typical day

I love to play fetch with the dogs, play with their favorite toys and long ear and belly rubs! Depending on the weather, I enjoy jogging a bit and being able to take different routes back home! However if the weather is too extreme (such as hot temperatures and icy sidewalks) then I tend to shorten the walks for the dogs safety, and instead replace that time with fetch and tug of war!

Pet care experience

Growing up, I was surrounded by birds, dogs, cats, ferrets, and hamsters; you name it! Ever since then, my love for animals has grown. I enjoy experiencing what life offers and might as well do it with a loving furry companion by my side. I have volunteered multiple times at my local Vet hospital and even have friends and family within the Veterinary field. Previously, I was found on numerous Pet caring apps, but now I'm mainly on Rover! I have experience bathing pets, walking, feeding them, and administering medication. I believe that, like humans, animals deserve respect and love!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
