Information Rhyeshona S. would like to know about your pet

It’s important to know as much information as possible to give your pet the best care possible. Please let me know their age, size as well as medical and dietary specifics. What does typical day look like to them and what training are they currently on? I want to make sure they get the treatment they’re normally use to, so if they catch a ball I throw and expect a treat, then a treat they shall receive.

A typical day

A typical day for us start nice and early around 7am after feeding everyone and taking some some quick bathroom breaks in the back we go on our walk to the local park. After we come back home everyone gets water before free roam starts where they can play with each other or do whatever they please around the house. Once it strikes 3pm we do a repeat of the morning before putting everyone into sections for the night.

Pet care experience

Hi everyone! my name is Rhyeshona but I prefer Shona a 24-year-old part time child care assist that also happens to love the second kind of children, animals. Unofficially I have 10+ years of experience taking care of an assortment of pet’s due to growing up in a “zoo”. Growing up my family would get a new pet every month of the year and each one demanded different requirements. Believe me I know about giving quality time around the clock. When it comes to activeness as well as my communication I take great pride in it, that’s why I’ll have no problem updating you on your pet’s with handfuls of pictures included. Being able to spend time with animals that’s suppose to act like animals gives me peace of mind and I look forward to meeting them. Around last year I graduated with my associate’s degree in Culinary Arts. After graduation however I found myself bouncing around jobs before working in childcare until I can become my on boss. I’m looking forward to meeting both you and your beloved pet. Boardings and Drop In’s I’m always around to help. ANY QUESTIONS IN MIND? GOT A PET THAT’S NOT A CAT OR DOG BUT STILL REQUIRES CARE? DON’T HESITATE TO REACH OUT!

Rhyeshonda came off friendly but quiet so we initially didn’t worry but as time progressed she became less responsive. She assured us she would check in after the first hour and didn’t. After the second hour we checked in on our puppy and she responded. She assured us we would hear from her between 3pm & 4pm and didn’t. We didn’t hear from her at any point on her own only when she felt like responding. Our puppy returned home severely stress, whimpering and abnormally quiet. She informed us that our puppy injured himself with no explanation but told us she washed his eye and gave ointment. We were so frustrated about her inability to check in and came to get our dog a few hours earlier than expected. She over fed our puppy giving him a whole bag of food between 2 days so had a lot of diarrhea. He was also very dehydrated upon return, panting and crust all over his eye. His belongings reeked of another dog. When we asked for more details about his injury she emphasized he was playful even after the accident and that he was in fact hurt by another dog. Her grown dog should not be playing with an 11 week old puppy. For this to be our first experience with Rover we are disappointed and wouldn’t book again with her. 😩
