Going on vacation leave your pet w

Pet care experience

I have 3 dogs of my own 2 small and one medium plus a cat. I know the worry when going away and hoping your pets are well cared for. That is why I decided to become a pet sitter. You can go away and enjoy your time away knowing your pet is well cared for. I have had pets for 20 years from dogs, to cats and have lots of experience. I hope you decided to allow me to care for your furry friend in your home or mine. Minimum of 2 night stay and 48 hour notice with overnight stays. Please have all up to date information on shots and any medical information. I also require information on what type of food pet eats. If you just to need to drop off your dog for a few hours I will be also available. I can also come to your home to house sit your home and pets while your away, knowing I will collect your mail, water your plants and keep your pets happy in their familiar surroundings. Copied below is a note from one of my clients showing how much I will do for their beloved pets. I posted the following to Rover. Please check that it is in the right place: This was a more complicated transaction than a simple drop off the dog and pickup the dog. My interaction with Portia required much communication, flexibility and dog delivery service that was way outside the expected norm.

I will not leave my pups Sammee and Suzee Q at a vet or any place where they are crated. Sammee has severe separation anxiety and Suzee Q spent 5 years caged in a research lab. So Portia was the ideal sitter for my pups. She bonded instantly with them both and that is not easy with Sammee. Our minds were eased with her updates and pics of them settling in nicely. She has a great area to walk the pups. Her other dogs in the house get along great with their guests. I would recommend Portia if you are looking for a sitter for a short get away anytime!

Portia is an Etiquette canidate for the position. She have compassion for animals and it is amazing how she can adopt to the needs of each individual animal. She had the pleasure of raising Goats. She nursed a bunny back to life. She had cared for a python. She had multiple animals over the years. From rabbits goats to dogs and cats. Currently she have three dogs one cat and a pet Tortoise. I am sure you will see how fast she can learn and grow into each task given to her. Please give her a chance to do what she loves. She is more of an animal person then a social media person. Thank You.
