Hi! My name is Sailor and I'm a nonbinary student at UMass Amherst majoring in Social Thought and Political Economy! I have a ton of experience with dogs and cats, having grown up in a multi-pet household and volunteered on and off at animal shelters for a couple of years. When I was younger, I got along with animals better than I got along with people, and so now I am very good at reading and understanding animal body language. I will be fast friends with your dog or cat. Furthermore, I worked an internship at the Berkshire Museum where I was responsible for much of the care of the aquariums and various reptiles and amphibians in the vivarium. So if you have reptiles, amphibians, or fish and need care for them along with your dog or cat - I'm your guy. I am a full-time student and so the flexibility of working with Rover is another one of its appeals. Especially during the semester, my schedule fluctuates wildly, and so I value working closely with clients to make sure the dates and times work for both of us. SAME DAY BOOKING POLICY: Life happens and I understand that sometimes you need a walker or a sitter last minute. That said, at this time I am only able to accommodate same day requests if they are located in Northampton, Amherst, or Florence. Thank you for your understanding. MEET AND GREET POLICY: Because I am a mobility aid user, I will need to do a meet and greet before taking your pup on a walk. I need to be sure that your dog is going to be comfortable with walking around my mobility aid. COVID POLICY: If you have tested positive for COVID within the past ten days or if you are feeling any symptoms of illness, please wear a mask during the meet and greet. I will also be masking if I have tested positive or am otherwise feeling ill. Thank you for your consideration.
