Pet care experience

Compassionate Veterinary Assistant!

Hello! I am an employee at an Animal Shelter in Detroit, so I have experience with a wide range of animals! I am very passionate about the care of animals and their well-being. I have multiple years worth of work as a Veterinary Assistant, and am very comfortable with all sizes/species of animals. My neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, medicate, bathe, and play with their animals for many years. I would love to talk to you about your pets needs, and how I could play a part in taking care of them!

Rosemary was very reliable. She was great communicating any changes. I would definitely use her again.

Boarding • Dec 27, 2025

I was ridiculously worried about leaving my cat with just anyone for my holiday. But Rose and her husband were exceptional. My cat was well taken care of and it shows as she has arrived home happy and healthy(not at all stressed- like we didn’t even board her). Rose is experienced and knowledgeable about animals and gave us as many updates as we asked for. THANK YOU ROSE!

Rose was great at communicating for my dog's daily walks. She was on time, professional, and Oliver always came back exhausted! Totally recommend Rose for any of your dog care needs.

House Sitting • Oct 26, 2021

Rosemary was an absolute joy to have watch our pup for 5 days while we were away. Our pup is a ball of energy, but we felt he was in great hands with Rosemary to keep him company! We highly recommend Rosemary.

Rosemary watched my dog for a weekend and I have nothing but good things to say about her! She gave me updates while I was gone and calmed my nerves about leaving my dog. She gave him great walks and was super understanding about his anxiety issues and was on top of his daily medications. I would definitely have her watch my dog again!

Safety, trust & environment

I have many years of experience working with all types of animals as a Veterinary Assistant. My experience includes basic pet sitting, basic pet walking, delivering medicine both orally and through shots, among other things.

A typical day

I love to go for walks, and to play with animals. My highest priority would be making sure that your pet gets all the love and attention that they deserve; whether that be playing fetch outside, going for long walks, playing with toys inside, or going to a dog park!
