In a time of loss, hug your pet

Pet care experience

I had 2 beautiful sons who adored animals. Both were struck by mental ailment. Yarny died in 2002. My Roxy and Ginger provided us with a great deal of comfort. Their pure love smoothed the sharp edge of the of the striking pain. Tragically, Gily, who started us with Rover.com, surrendered to the pain. The company of loving pooch will serve as a life saver for my aching heart. In all honesty, I need the presence of those cute darling just as much as they need mine. I can't claim to adore pets more than any other sitters. I am certain that everyone who engage in pets care love them dearly, but I could reassure you, the furry friends under my care will not lack love. I don't work, so I have plenty of time to play, care, and snuggle up to the fury pets which is the highlight of the job. I make sure they are let out often: 2-4 hours interval, and I enjoy walking them in the neighborhood. The dogs are always on a leash. I hold the leash before I open the door so I secure their moves. I also make sure to separate the dogs should they show aggressive behavior toward one another. I don't work outside the home, so my schedule is rather flexible. I prefer reasonable drop-off and pick-up hours; I prefer to sleep between 11 pm to 7 am. I don't have a fenced yard, but I hold the dog's leash tightly before I open the door. I like to board 2 dogs at a time, 3 in case of overlapping situation.

Information Rina B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know of any information necessary to make the dog's stay a healthy and pleasant experience. Please try to include many details, even the little ones. One difficulty for me is over shedding. All dogs shed and I find it natural. But some shed to a point that it is very difficult for me to handle. It is essential for the dog to get along with other dogs. Recently, some dogs chewed some parts of my door frames and other parts of my residence. Please, Rover doesn't cover damage caused by pooches, so I will have to decline dogs who suffer high level of anxiety which result in injury and property damage.

A typical day

After the morning greeting and letting the dog out for a potty break, I will serve his/her breakfast. A walk in the neighborhood park in the fresh air will provide the dog the exercise so very needed to burn energy. I spend long hours at home so the dogs usually seek my attention, or spend time relaxing in my room. Many like to play fetch or dance with me. I make sure to let them out every 2-4 hours. I am one of those who cannot sleep with dogs since they keep me awake. However, many love to sleep in my room,
