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.
Reviews
Rose was awesome with our senior dog and we greatly appreciate her communication and flexibility!
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.
About Rose V.
Communication
Skills
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.
Services
Rose can watch in your home
Availability
Generally pretty flexible around my work schedule, but usually open on weeknights and weekends! Please designate how often your dog has to be let out and socialized (:
