Pet care experience

Hello~ My name is Nova, I am born and raised here in Walla Walla, WA. I am a freelance illustrator and art major minoring in biology. I graduated from Walla Walla High school in 2015, participating all 4 years in the AVID program. In 2017, I earned my Associate’s in Art at WWCC and was on both the Vice President and President’s list. I have worked repeatedly with many families and pets to provide the utmost care while you’re away. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask! ✨ I am a part-time freelancer that works from home so my schedule is flexible. Any changes to dates/times of my visits should be requested at least 24 hours prior. Also, I have plenty of experience with elderly or high maintenance animals that require medication administration. A care guide is heavily encouraged so that optimal care is provided for your pet(s). Note: Please create a profile for each of your pet(s) receiving care. I do not accept last minute requests. If you have any concerns or special instructions, contact me first. These can be modified throughout the visits/stays to best suit your needs. Cheers!

We really like Nova for her recent care of Zack, our 13-year old cat. She was punctual, sent great pictures, followed the instructions we left with special attention. She brushed him (which he loves) and played with him (with his peacock feather.). She spent extra time with him and he adores her. We will definitely ask for her again to take care of Zack. Holly H

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
