Safety, trust & environment

I have 3 cats (RIP Pearl) and a bunny. There are also 2 puppies in the house as well who are very sweet, gentle, and love to socialize. I have 2 extra rooms to keep pets separated if needed, I can socialize your dog/pet with cats, puppies, or even the bunny with supervision and care, or keep our animals out of the way if your pet needs more space. I also have a fenced in yard and live in a cul de sac which is great for walks! All of my pets have needed different types of meds at some point so I could do that in my sleep LOL. In a client’s home is where your pet would feel most comfortable so I am more than happy to come care for your pet in their safe space. I take notes and set alarms so I never miss a step in care and I don’t have to ask a million questions. Pets’ happiness and comfort are my top priorities! And I would never feel comfortable overstepping any boundaries in a client’s home. I will stick to the necessary areas for the pet and give them all of my attention. (Disclaimer for rover: I will be the only person caring for the pets. No one else in my household will be involved.”

Pets

A typical day

I love to keep pets entertained. Walks, running, enrichment activities like treat puzzles, dog parks (if allowed by you), and if I have access to a pool, of course I would love to let your pet swim!

It would be helpful to know ahead of time any medications or special needs. If your pet needs their nails trimmed but struggles with nail trimming, that would be helpful to know as well.
