Home Fulltime,will love like my own

Pet care experience

(Due To Impending Surgical Procedures,I will not be able to Provide any Dog Services. Cat Service ONLY Till further Notice) *Hello Pet Parents. The State of the World has Us all Hyper aware, Concerned of What environment Your Pet Will Be In. And Rightly So. Please be Assured that Your child will be cared for in a COVID Free, Smoke Free home. My Hope is That you and Your baby are Healthy and Safe.* I have 25 years of experience with cats,dogs and hamsters. My preference to board is low energy dogs and cats. I've been a volunteer for the ACC in Manhattan, Pillows for Pets, a Foster for Frankies Feline Fund and a pet sitter for many of my friends' and family's pets when they are away. As of recently, my own geriatric cats have passed. My heart is broken, But I look at the bright side of this loss. Now I don't have a limit on what kind of pet I can care for. Whenever a furbaby is at home with me they will get Extra love and attention. As always, they will have full access to my sofa and the bed and Cuddles are given gladly with love. Kitties will be played with, if that's what they'd like and Dogs will be walked with patience and care. If you need kitty care, I'm your girl, If you need pup care I got you too! My biggest Joy in life is to care and advocate for all animals, especially if they are in need.

Papatyo stayed with Rolanda for two weeks and was definitely sad to leave her at the end. Rolanda could tell I was a nervous (it was my first time leaving my cat with any sitter) and she patiently answered all my questions. She reassured me Papatyo would get lots of love and that I would get lots of photos--both of which were true. Would happily re-book and would highly recommend. Also, lovely to find such a cat-lover on Rover. Thanks, Rolanda!

Bones had a great time with Rolanda, he seemed very comfortable when I picked him up! She took great care of him.

Rolanda is amazing, so caring and attentive to the dogs and cats in her care. Knowing our older dog Benny was with her over our long trip was a huge relief. He was happy and well taken care of. She kept us updated regularly and always went the extra step to keep him m comfortable. We will 100% be working with Rolanda again!!

Safety, trust & environment

Both Dogs and Cats Safety and Happiness is #1. While at Home, I've Made sure there is Nothing that Can Possibly be a Danger to Them. On Walks, The Utmost Care to Always Make Sure They Are Not in Harm's Way Be it With Cars, Bicycles,Other Dog's,Even avoiding People if They are Shy or Unsure. With Cats, Litter is cleaned at least Twice Daily. There will be Playtime or Not. Cuddling or Not. I'd Never Force Force Them to Interactions they Are Nervous About.

Information Rolanda N. would like to know about your pet

Before I bring a pup home it'd be nice to know that they are low in energy, maybe even senior that's still in good shape. How do they like to walk? Are they shy/scared to go outside? Are They Receptive to Dog interactions? Do they have certain quirks? Any Allergies? I'd like to know so he/she can have the best experience. I also have vast experience and knowledge with the Brachycephalic breeds (flat faces)but all dogs all breeds are welcome in my home.

A typical day

While walking your baby, I will make sure they get a nice long proper walk and provide lots of encouragement and stimulation. I just love interacting with them while they play with their toys. If It's a nice day, Then Giddyup!
