Pet care experience

Experienced Pet Sitter/Dog Groomer

My experience with animals goes well beyond caring for my own pets and those of family members. I previously worked with Rover and have professional animal-care experience from working at two animal shelters: Lehigh County Humane Society and Bucks County SPCA. Since September 2021, I have been working professionally as a dog groomer. This has given me extensive hands-on experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, temperaments, and personalities. I’m comfortable handling dogs and paying close attention to their behavior, comfort, and individual needs. My experience isn’t limited to dogs. I have also cared for cats, small animals, and some farm animals. What sets me apart is my combination of pet-sitting, animal shelter, and professional grooming experience. Animals have been a consistent part of both my personal life and my professional career, and I’m comfortable caring for pets with a wide variety of needs and personalities.

Neftaida is friendly and thorough, and obviously loves animals. She had a schedule change at work that altered our routine, but we talked and worked it out. I do recommend her services.

Neftaida, took good care of my dog. She picked her up and dropped her off, which was very convenient for me. I can tell that she loves animals just by the way she interacted with my dog. I will definitely use her again.

Schedule

I currently work as a professional dog groomer, and I’m available to care for pets in my home around my work schedule and on my days off. When I’m home, your pet will be part of my daily routine and receive plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and time to relax. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s routine and make sure their stay works well with my schedule.

Safety, trust & environment

With my experience working at two animal shelters and my current experience as a professional dog groomer, I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, personalities, and temperaments. Safety and comfort are always a priority. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and individual needs, and I will follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, routines, medications, and any special care needed.

A typical day

I like to adjust activities to each pet’s personality, age, and energy level. A typical day can include potty breaks, playtime, exercise, enrichment activities, lots of attention, and plenty of time to rest and get comfortable. I also enjoy brushing and caring for coats when appropriate. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and cared for while staying with me.

I’d love to learn about your pet before their stay! Please let me know about their normal routine, feeding schedule, personality, behavior around other pets and children, medications or health needs, potty habits, and anything that may make them anxious or uncomfortable. The more I know about your pet, the better I can make their stay safe, comfortable, and enjoyable.
