Caring and Experienced Pet Sitter
Hello everyone! Thank you for considering me to take care of your furbabies! I have three dogs of my own aged 6, 5, and 4, so I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy and caring to watch your pets when needed! I have watched dogs ranging from full grown german shepherds to small puppies. I first volunteeed at my local animal shelter, Pet Refuge, six years ago and discovered my passion for animals! I have experience with caring for numerous sizes, ages, and breeds of dogs through both my past volunteer experience and my work here through Rover over the past 5 years. These dogs include pit bulls, golden retrievers, australian shepherds, huskies, poodles and doodles, labs, chihuahuas, beagles, bulldogs, terriers, and many mixes in between. My experience includes walking, feeding, giving oral medicine, and knowledge of the various traits and behaviors of dogs. I have learned many skills on how to interact with dogs and how to read their body language. I have been so fortunate to expand further on all of these skills through my own work full-time here on Rover with my daily clients, as well as my every-once-in-awhile pet pals that just need someone when their parents go on vacation! I also had a childhood cat who lived to be 18 years old, and adopted two kittens three years ago. I also have had the privilege to take care of many kitty friends through this app! Therefore, I do have experience with cat duties as well including litter box cleaning, feeding, and medication.

Safety, trust & environment
As I previously stated, I have a few pets of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy and honest. Communication is key for my care and I am always updating, asking questions, and communicating with the parent while I care for their pet. Who doesn’t love lots of updates? I go with your pets pace, so if it’s a puppy full of energy we’ll be sure to play a lot - but if you have a senior who likes to relax, we will! Whatever your dogs (or cats) needs are I am there to fulfill them!
Ratings and reviews
Mya was an absolute lifesaver for me when my sitter quit on me last minute before an out of state trip. She was so prompt at replying and taking on the task last minute. Every visit she sent me great photos and my cats both loved her. One of my kitties never comes out for strangers but during the first visit, she sent me a photo and he was so content and comfortable in the background. I would 100% recommend Mya as a sitter and book her services again. She’s incredibly professional, caring, and great at what she does!
Mya was great! My cats are somewhat shy but came out for feedings and pets when she did drop ins. She provided pictures and updates each day. Would definitely recommend and book again!
This was our first booking with Mya. Mya is a sweet and gentle caretaker. We will definitely be booking her in the future.
Mya is amazing!!! This was our second time having her take care of our cats and it definitely won't be the last! She let us know everyday how our cats were and took pictures. Definitely would recommend to anyone!! Thanks again!!! ♥️♥️
Super communicative and great with our dog Doug. Also took great care of the house!
Mya was wonderful! Very friendly and easy to communicate with! Got a detailed report about our cats each day along with pictures! A++++. Will definitely have her watch our cats again the next time we go on vacation!

Schedule
I love working with animals. I am currently pet-sitting part-time while also being a full-time IUSB college student studying elementary education! I am so passionate and appreciate all of my current and past pet parents so much for allowing me to take care of their pets! My schedule is generally open according to my posted availability with the majority of my availability being evenings and weekends. However, I am able to make drop ins work with my schedule the majority of the time. I would love to hear from you! I try to be super flexible!

- I would like to know any important behaviors, needs, or requirements for care of your dog. These include dietary, medical, and personal needs for you or your pet! For example: Does your pet need medicine administered during the time of care? Does your pet have any allergies? Does your pet have any areas they do not like being touched? Does your pet have any cue words to help calm them? Does your pet enjoy the company of other animals and/or strangers?
