Animal Healer--Calm and Active

Pet care experience

Hello there! My name is Roxie and I have been a passionate animal lover and activist since I was young. I did not grow up with pets in my household, but I made an effort to get as much animal time as I could--I loved spending time walking my friends' dogs, petsitting and surrounding myself with animals. My love for animals continued into my adulthood, and I have a really special connection with dogs. Growing up, I was fascinated with how animals reacted, played, and communicated. Now I really am interested in how much love they bring to their families. I currently, work as a Mental Health Therapist and throughout my years of training, I have developed tools and techniques to provide a calm and loving energy space for all animals. I have been told by many dog owners that their dogs seem to feel safe and calm around me. In my career as a therapist, I have learned about the importance of communication. I pride myself on my open and consistent communication, and pet owners love it too! You can be completely comfortable leaving your pet with me. I understand how hard it is to leave your furry family member behind, and I promise to keep you updated so you can be comfortable while you're away. Please feel free to email me any questions you may have and let me know how I can be of service to your furry friends. :)

Roxie was the bomb. So nice, so accommodating that I was afraid Flaca wouldn't want to come home. She treated her just like family. She sent me texts and images which I was gone which was really comforting. I would HIGHLY recommend Roxie!!

Hi! Roxie has always been an animal lover for as long as I have known her. I have a dog (a St. Bernard!) and she is always the first one to offer help when I need it. She has a natural gift and is very intuitive with animals and I have always thought of her as an 'animal whisperer' of sorts. Animals themselves are attracted to her and she has a way to calm animals, make them feel safe, and most importantly give them all the attention they need. She is attentive and cares about their well being making sure they have what they need and gives them the love they are looking for. Roxie's home is also very important to her and she is clean and has created a calming environment for both people and pets.

Roxie is such a wonderful dog sitter! She has the most attentive and caring personality in all areas of her life, especially when it comes to looking after dogs. She is instinctively in tune with the needs of animals and will always treat your dog as she would her own. She will go above & beyond to make sure your dog is comfortable, happy & thoroughly entertained.

Roxie has a wonderfully healing touch with animals of all kinds. When she first met my family's dogs, they absolutely fell in love with her. Roxie is a highly intuitive person and she's great at sensing another's needs, human and animal alike. Anyone looking for a reliable, caring, present dog sitter/walker would be lucky to employ Roxie.

Information Roxie S. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed preferences, in fact I adore animals of all sorts of shapes and sizes. I would want to know how your dog interacts with strangers, other dogs, if they have a history of aggression or a history of accidents in the house. These are not definite reasons why I could not work with your dog, but helpful to know and work on together!

A typical day

There is a park right across the street from my house that is very pet friendly. I love going for long walks or snuggling on the couch with Netflix on. Whatever your dog's usual routine is, we can stick to it! I want them to be happy and comfortable with me.
