Pet care experience
Licensed Cheese Tax Professional
Hello! My name is Oona and I provide dedicated, distraction free pet care tailored to your animal's unique routine. Since my current apartment building doesn't allow pets, I am using Rover purely for the joy of spending time with animals! I deeply miss having a furry companion around, so your pet will truly be treated like my own. I have over 20 years of pet care experience encompassing both high energy dogs and cats. Growing up, I raised and trained a Blue Heeler mix and a Golden Retriever/Gordon Setter mix, giving me deep expertise in handling large breeds with intense working, herding, and hunting instincts. I am highly skilled in leash control, behavior management, and providing the physical and mental stimulation active dogs need. In addition to dogs, I am incredibly comfortable with cats. I owned a house cat throughout college and for several years afterward, and I regularly provide drop in care and house sitting for friends' felines. I understand feline body language, respect their boundaries, and am experienced with litter box maintenance, structured playtime, and feeding routines. Whether your pet is a high energy pup who needs a long walk or a shy cat who needs a patient companion, I provide a calm, distraction free environment tailored to their exact routine. My Specialty Skills: • Large & High Energy Dogs: Expert at managing strong, active, working breeds. • Feline Companion Care: Experienced with cat routines, boundaries, and playtime. • Leash Control and Safety: Confident handling strong pullers in busy environments. • Distraction Free Focus: Dedicated care with no resident kids or pets of my own. I can’t wait to meet your pets!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Your home and your pet are in safe, responsible hands. When house sitting, I treat your property with the utmost respect ensuring doors are locked, alarms are set, and your space is kept pristine. Because I do not have pets of my own right now, your animal will never face territorial behavior or stress from resident pets. My focus is 100% on them. During outdoor walks, I maintain a strict on-leash policy, avoid interactions with unknown dogs, and stay highly alert to the surrounding environment to prevent any risks. I am highly attentive to behavioral cues, respect feline boundaries, and maintain a clear emergency plan with a 24/7 veterinary clinic local to your area. I will always keep you updated with frequent photos and peace of mind messages throughout my visits!

I offer flexible pet care designed around evenings and weekends. Because my primary goal is to fill my free time with animal companionship, I am highly flexible and eager to fit into your pet's regular routine. My general availability is: • Weekdays (Monday–Friday): Available starting in the early evening for walks, drop-ins, and house-sitting check-ins. • Weekends (Saturday–Sunday): Fully open with flexible, all-day availability for walking, drop-ins, or dedicated house sitting. • Overnight Stays: Happily available with prior notice so I can coordinate my schedule and give your home and pet my full focus. I am highly communicative and always respond quickly to help you plan your week!
