Resident doctor and animal lover!

Pet care experience

UPDATE 05/2023: I no longer do overnight stays longer than three consecutive nights. Resident physician and all-around animal lover just trying to make a couple bucks on the side!! My pets are my everything, and if you're on this site, then your pets must mean the world to you, too! I aim to treat all pets that I care for as though they are my own. I grew up with dogs in my house; we even got up to four at a time! I have been walking and sitting for residents in my building, but I really want to further expand my services. I have also been volunteering at the animal shelter PAWS, so I have experience with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, ages, and breeds. I’ve found a lot of success in training with some of the more reactive dogs, as well as the shyer ones. I’ve also helped one dog give birth to a litter of 13 puppies! I do like to keep my service radius short, as biking is my primary mode of transportation, and I like to work close to home to my own needy cat.

Rose is always phenomenal and attentive! Our animals love her and she does a great job every time she cares for them when we are away. We are sad she will be moving soon because she’s been so wonderful to have!

Rose is a great walker! Our pup tends towards the anxious side, which can be difficult on walks, but Rose handles those tough situations like a pro! Definitely highly recommend

Rose watched out cat Marilyn over the winter holiday. She was always responsive and Marilyn loved her! Will book again.

Safety, trust & environment

Please complete the care instructions in the app as detailed as possible. I treat your pets like they’re my own. I consider this my respite from work, so expect your pet to get tons of attention and playtime from me. I also LOVE doing mock glamor-shoots with them!

Information Rose V. would like to know about your pet

Definitely if they are shy vs hyperactive. Behavior that they typically display while on a walk. Though I'm trained to steer clear of other dogs, how would yours react if we met another dog on a walk? Are they a puller on a leash?

A typical day

Trying to hit my 10,000 daily step goal, so your dog will get more than just a potty break around the block! For visits, expect clean and fresh food & water bowls, litter scooping, and plenty of playtime and snuggles.
