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 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.
Rose was absolutely wonderful. We had a very long trip, and I was nervous about leaving our kitty alone for such a long period of time. But Rose was warm and wonderful and took excellent care of our cat Momo! She is extremely respectful and responsive! I’d absolutely book her again!!
Rose was great watching my cat Juno over the winter holidays! She sent lots of photos and was very communicative! Would definitely have her back!
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

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 (:
