5 Years with RSPCA - Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I love animals. I've owned dogs and cats most of my life. I have passionate feelings about the responsibility that belongs to pet owners. They are not TOYS. They are sentient beings that give back unquestionably if treat with the love, care, and the consideration they deserve. Animals experience stress, anxiety, and pain. It is vital to their quality of life, where you leave them and with whom. Find reliable help, and keep them happy. In turn, they will do the same. That would be me due to my love for animals. I no longer have any of my own, but I am missing having a pet. I do believe this will be the best way to fill that empty void that I have. Whether dogs or cats, I'm fine. In my youth, I had a wonderful mix breed, "Needy" LOL, her name fit, they were about to toss her out, she was the last puppy in the litter that they couldn't home. Yep, so I took her. Had 3 cats through my 54 years, "Old Tom" He was hilarious, "Midnight" Miss Moody we called her. And last, "Yogi" He was my guy. Then there was "Duke" A shepherd, "Rollo" another Sheperd, "Jojo" Shepherd-Collie mix, "Jerico" Chinese Sha-Pei, "Crystal" Alaskan Malamute. "Rufus" Great Pyrenese Mountain dog, "Chewy" Beautiful Cocker Spaniel and last, "Coco" an amazing mix. I had many of them at the same time. So it was usually, 2 to 3 dogs and 1 cat. Now, due to finances and where I live, I can't have a pet. But that doesn't stop the longing for them. Yes, seeing about yours... will fit in with my current life needs just right.

I booked Maxine for an overnight stay with my almost 9 yo Great Dane, he is very healthy but requires care, patience and attention, all things that Maxine provided, as I mentioned in a previous review of daily visits, I would definitely recommend Maxine...I've actually have her booked already for a future stay! Thanks Maxine!

Maxine was amazing! She was so much more than we could hope for. Not only did she take care of our dog Ginger, who had just undergone surgery on her paw, but she cared for our two cats as well. She texted us daily when she came to the house, including pictures of the pets activities. She stayed in our guest room to ensure Ginger didn't have any anxiety problems with us being gone. I highly recommend Maxine and have no hesitation to call her in the future!

Maxine took great care of my dog, she was caring and on time for her visits. She took time to play with him and make sure he was well. I will recommend Maxine!

I'm so happy that Maxine decided to become a part of Rover. We met while volunteering and one of our first conversations was of pets and her love of animals. Maxine has a particular love of cats but loves all animals. She enjoys the mutual feeling of well-being that comes from caring for animals.

Information Maxine L F. would like to know about your pet

I've had large and small pets, no preference. Fully Socialized? Any aggressions? Does he/she need daily brushing? ie; Long hair Housebroken? Any anxieties? Allowed on the furniture? LOL

A typical day

Talks Walks, Playtime Kindness and caregiving that keeps them at peace. Possible learning of a new trick - I love to challenge them. Some of them love it too. As for walks, parks are best. Summer heat on concrete is dangerous when it comes to their paws, their pads are not heat proof.
