They Will Fall In Love With Me!
Pet care experience
“Hello Furparents! Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile! I know it can be scary to leave your loved ones with a stranger, so I want to make sure your fur babies think of me as an extension of their home. I currently work at a veterinary clinic in town and have grown up on a farm so I bring a mix of both professional and personal experience in animal care. Growing up on a farm, I have always been passionate about animals and have understood animal behaviors and needs from an early age. Animals are just like people, unique with different personality traits, and it is important to me to care for your baby in their own special way. Not only do I welcome them into my home, but I also welcome them into my heart. My current dog, Bella, was a long-time client for years whom I happily took in when her mom moved to another country. She has been my greatest companion ever since. I wish I could accept all my requests, but I have recently increased my prices to keep up with my demand. If my rate is too expensive for your current budget, I completely understand and hope that you might be able to book with me in the future. I take pride in my excellent rating and my relationship with my clients. This is my full-time job, and your animals will have my full attention. I provide healthy treats (with permission) free of charge and always have plenty of new toys to keep even the most active pup busy. Investing in the animal’s health and well-being creates a happier time for everyone. You can have peace of mind and look forward to plenty of pictures and video updates of your little fur babies until you are reunited. I look forward to meeting you!
Reviews
Salena was an excellent sitter for our miniature poodle. She was willing to help with a same day request for an overnight job. She loved and enjoyed our dog and sent picture updates. We would definitely request her services again.
I tried to book with Salena at 11 o’clock at night for the very next morning because of a medical emergency. I wasn’t able to be home and was stuck all night and day in the ICU. She responded quickly, and worked to make it work. I don’t know what I would’ve done without her. She sent me photos and took very good care of my puppy, and even went out of her way to go buy my cats food as we had just ran out. She really does seem to care a lot about the animals she works with and I will be booking with her again.
My cat is always excited to be checked in by Salena. He had always seemed fed, "watered", and played with. She has also been available last minute when I've had to travel for work. Never had any issues other than app related ones (a check in session not ending due to bad wifi or such). Salena has taken in my packages without me even having to ask
WILL NOT HIRE AGAIN It’s with great sadness that I write this review. Salena interviewed so well and we instantly like her. However, we had a big shock when we returned home to find several of our liquor bottles empty. These were stored behind a closed door in a room Salena was instructed not to enter. There were two half full large (1.75 L) bottles of vodka missing along with an at least half full bottle of apple vodka and a nearly full bottle of gin. When confronted, Salena denied taking it and even denied entering the closed door room. We have since found some additional oddities including evidence that there may have been another dog here (not pre-approved), our written instructions were not followed, missing food, etc. These we might have been able to overlook but not the alcohol.
About Salena S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My main concern is that you and your furbaby feel safe and welcome in my home. I introduce the dogs in a slow and calm environment and have never had any problems with dog fights or dogs escaping when with me.
Home
Information Salena S. would like to know about your pet
Do they need to be separated from others during feeding or treat time, do they get along with other dogs, do they have allergies or medication, will they chew on things when I’m at work. I’m okay if these are all yes. Don’t think you have to hide anything because I know dogs will be dogs. If the dogs have allergies I will make sure I buy special treats for them and make sure they do not share other dogs food ❤️
A typical day
Breakfast, Walk, Snacks, Play time, Snacks, Walk, Dinner, Snack, Cuddles, and then Bedtime. I follow their schedule or let them tell me what they want to do during the day.

Availability
As I said before your fur babies have my full attention and I will follow their routine as close as possible allowing them to settle in and adapt to the new surrounding more quickly. I can either take them for hikes or simply walk them around the block. I also enjoy snuggles on the couch as well (:
