Veterinary Technician Student

Pet care experience

I live in Chicago in a house on the southwest side of the city. I am currently not working, since I've decided to go back to school full-time. I will be earning my second degree as a Veterinary Technician and have a bachelor's degree in Business. I have many rescue pets including my dog, 2 cats, 9 rats and a fish. I have owned large breed dogs my entire life. I grew up watching all of my neighbor's pets since I was about 9, including dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, and small mammals. I also volunteered at two animal shelters throughout high school and college (Animal Welfare- Chicago & Mecosta County Shelter- Big Rapids). I am comfortable caring for all animals, big or small, shy or playful, scared or misunderstood. I have a decent sized fenced in yard, if I were ever to take care of your pets in my own home (animals must be okay with dogs and cats, males must be neutered or a puppy). I have my own car for transportation with a big back seat for dogs and I have a xlarge dog kennel if your dog prefers to be in a kennel at night or throughout the day. I enjoy pet sitting other people's pets and treat them as if they were my own.

Dear fellow dog owners, I can say with the utmost confidence that Rebecca is not only an amazing dog sitter but she is also an amazing person. She has taken care of both of our dogs from from the day they were brought home and treated them with the love and respect that only a true dog lover knows. Our pet's are considered our family members and I know Rebecca will treat your family pet like her own.

I have known Becky for 7 years now and she is one of the very few people I trust with my dog, outside of my family. Becky is extremely caring with animals and she is very reliable. If she says she will do something or be somewhere, she always follows through. I could not recommend her enough to those looking for a reliable, trustworthy and kind sitter for their pets.

Knowing Rebecca her whole life, I have seen that she has a sincere love for all animals and a talent for gaining the trust from even the shyest furbaby. She has volunteered at the local shelter and was one of the few volunteers that was not afraid to interact with all the dogs. Dogs that often were left in their kennels because others were afraid of them, but these dogs responded to her. She has been raised with dogs since she was 2 years old, and we always had big dogs (Rottie, Rottie-English Mastiff mix, Blood Hound, and Mastiff mix). Our dogs chose to spend their time with her. As Rebecca became older she frequently dog sat for neighbors. The dogs she sat for ranged from Yorkies to Pit Bulls to Labs, so she has experience with small to large dogs. Rebecca can get dogs that only interact with their people to positively interact with her. She has a gift with animals and they respond to her because of this gift.
