Animal lover with vet med experienc

Pet care experience

I offer extremely flexable booking and am understanding of last minute cancelations/ changes. But more importantly I love caring for dog (and all animals) and have for many years (especially special needs dogs). Many of the dogs I have watched have had missing limbs, hearing or sight impairment, diabetes or anxiety. If your dog requires insulin shots or special care, I am able to administrator most medications. I graduated from OSU with an animal science and entomology degree with research distinction and bioscience specialization. I volunteered at OSUs vet med for many years so have seen it all (well almost). I also used to work at a small vet hospital in Clintonville, but have since accepted a position at a human medical office in Westerville. I love sending updates and taking pictures of your furr babies. Also I used to volunteer at Allen county humane society, walking dogs and cleaning cages. I love all dogs no matter the size and am familiar with most walking devices. My favorite breeds include labs, pit bulls and St. Bernards, but love all and any dog. Dogs with special needs definitely have a special place in my heart and I can't wait to meet your fur babies!

Rebecca is always my go to dog sitter on Rover! My pup and cat absolutely love her and I know they are is the best hands. She was quick to respond to a last minute drop in and everything went fantastic. Can not thank her enough!

Rebecca is always reliable and goes the extra mile— brings in our mail, let’s us know about any non-pet related issues she might see around the house (like a very thirsty house plant!), and of course takes amazing care of our two cats.

Safety, trust & environment

I am a huge supporter of Dr. Sophia Yin's low stress halding and restraining techniques! (They are very helpful especially for puppies and kitties and absolutely do not want to take meds). I have had some critical care training. I have also had some training with behavioral management.

Information Rebecca E. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what your dog does or doesnt like ie: other doges, certain types of people, running, toys. does you dog have any fears? (thunderstorms, fireworks) I would also like to know some of the normal daily activities you do with your dog to decrease the anxiety while you are away. Knowing what training your dog has had in the past is beneficial too (including words you use) ie: some use the word "wait" and others use "stay" I have been trained to give subcutaneous fluids, insulin injections, oral and ear medications. I have also attended a few seminars on critical care ( i.e. trama related injuries, common toxicity symptoms and restraining) but no longer have my CPR certification. I would like to have a vaccine list and a list of any medical problems.

A typical day

I love to play fetch, go for walks on the bike trail, nearby parks or really any safe, well lit areas around the neighborhood. Some of the pups in the past and I enjoy games like "chase" or "soccer."
