Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring, reliable, playful & patient
I can read pets moods and comfort levels well. Shy or scared dogs feel comfortable with me because I take it slow and let them come to me. I’ve taken care of young kittens and an older diabetic cat. I care for other people’s pets like they're my own and take the responsibility very seriously. I also love playing with cats and dogs, I have a lot of fun bringing out that side of them.

Reba also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Rebecca (aka Reba) is a loving parent to their pup Andy, In everything they do, Reba is a very responsible person and especially so in taking care of Andy. They love to have other dogs come to visit - there is nothing better than having 3 or 4 extra dogs sleeping over at their house! Reba enjoys the outdoors and going for walks but finds it even more fun to have a dog along to explore new trails or neighbourhoods along with them. They are a very kind and big-hearted human who would love to spend time getting to know more pet buddies.
Reba is great with animals! My dog is quite fearful and Reba really eased in with letting him out and got creative with ways to keep him from getting too scared but still give him care. Reba is also great with my cat. Reba is attentive to how animals like to communicate and their unique boundaries. 10/10 pet sitter

I work freelance jobs remotely from my home and have a flexible schedule. I run a side karaoke business so some evenings I am busy. I am available throughout the week and weekends.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced yard and one small shih tzu named Andy. I take care of pets by first building a relationship of trust with them, giving them whatever space they need to feel comfortable and taking extra time to do this properly. I can manage medications well and medicated shampoo baths. My current dog has allergies and my previous cat had diabetes so I have a range of care experience.
Pets
A typical day
I love finding out what each dog likes. Might be a specific toy, fetch, being playfully chased or catch. Always happy to run around the yard with them
