Hi! :) ***I'm currently on a break for most care services at this time. Accepting current repeat clients only for now. Thank you!*** I am a friendly and engaging host that will happily play with and love on your pet to make sure they are safe and well cared for! I work from home full time and have a pretty flexible schedule. I am very active and would enjoy getting in more steps in my day taking your best friend on a walk - rain, sunshine or snow. I have owned dogs, cats, bunnies and reptiles for more than 20 years. I especially love dogs and foster dogs/cats with PAWS Chicago. I can go on walks with your dog(s) most mornings, weekends, and evenings. I have an apartment, fenced in back yard, live close to the dog beach and a multitude of parks. Your pet will get plenty of exercise and play time. If it's your pet's first time over, please bring things they are familiar with and remind them of home to make their first stay more comfortable (ie. favorite toy, blankets, bed, etc). I meet all new fur friends first before confirming a booking and send daily picture updates during the booking (or every 48 hours for extended bookings after 14 days). Tell me all their habits and favorite things. Even better if you fully complete their Rover pet profile. I do my best to mimic the same habits for them while you are gone. I do charge extra for puppies as they usually need more care and for traveling more than 7 miles to your home. **Boarding - care at my home is limited to a max of 3 fur friends that can preferably play well with others (dogs & cats) and follow basic commands. Please message me if you need other accommodations or have specific needs. I can House Sit for your fur friends that don’t like being away from their own home or don’t get along with others. I clean after myself while in your home and will leave your home just as I found it while caring for your pets while you’re away. I work solo and can also bring up mail/packages and water plants. RATES are for a 24 hour period. There is a grace period of a couple hours, but if the booking starts one day in the morning and the pick up is on another day in the evening, then a half day charge is incurred. If a HOLIDAY falls during your booking, holiday rates are implemented 3-5 nights before & after the holiday due to high demand and holiday coverage of Rover support in case of an emergency. Depends on the holiday on whether it is 3, 4 or 5 nights. I will update the booking when I receive your booking request. I only accept booking requests on the Rover platform. Tips are not required, but appreciated and are available at the end of your booking on this app or via Venmo to @Mish-C I'd love to hear more about your pet(s) and how I can help you! I'm a message away if you have any questions.
