Work from home graduate student

Pet care experience

Hi! I am a college student who also teaches horseback lessons. I have a flexible schedule and have previously been employed by a pet sitting company in the NOVA area! Recently I have relocated to the Fredericksburg/Stafford area. I have many references, and have taken care of all types of dogs, cats, horses and even other farm animals like pigs, chickens, goats and llamas. I enjoy spending time with animals, and I know how important it is that your pets get taken care of properly. Safe, happy animals and clients are my top priorities. I currently have three large, very friendly dogs and a horse that I spend most of my time with when not pet sitting. I also have references for extended house and pet sitting, including property maintenance as well.

Rhys was timely on her arrivals and departures, sent cute updates about our cats, and followed their normal routine very closely. We thank Rhys very much for stopping in for the cats while we were away!!

She was amazing with my 2 dogs. I had to leave town for 2 weeks for a loss in the family. She kept me updated and sent pictures everyday of my boys and was very easy to work with. She made the whole situation stress free and I will be booking her again.

Multiple issues with Rhys. We had an initial meet and greet and she agreed to the plan of housesitting (which included staying overnight) my 2 dogs (cat was added at a later date). I had even left written instructions as to when the dogs needed to be let outside and fed (restated what we went over at the meet/greet). She showed up on time on Wednesday. I am assuming she showed up at least once on Thursday because she sent photos. Friday I got nothing from her. She was suppose to feed the dogs by 6:00 pm. I contacted my neighbor to check if she was at the house and she was not. I texted Rhys and at 7:35 she said she was on her way. By this time, my neighbor was checking on the dogs. Once she finally got the dogs fed, she texted me and said she didn't feel comfortable watching the animals. Made excuses as to why she wouldn't continue. She had 3 more days scheduled and just up and quit. I was 600 miles away and she assumed my neighbor would do it. Definitely do not recommend her.

Rhys was awesome, and we would welcome her back anytime. She beautifully managed a new puppy and our very big puppy, while the house is undergoing a massive renovation project. Looking forward to calling on her again in the future.
