Pet care experience

Dogs and cats are my passion.

I currently do not have pets, because I live in housing that does not allow them. I'm missing that wonderful connection with animals. When I had my home, I had two dogs and two cats, and I miss them dearly. I find myself talking to and petting strange dogs and cats. I am not familiar with other animals, but am willing to feed and litter change reptiles or other small animals. My time is my own, so I can be available at anytime on most days. I have no problem with taking animals to vet or grooming appointments. Since I have no pets, there will not be any chance of cross contamination. I'm available for traveling greater distances for fuel expense compensation, and will water plants indoors and outdoors. I love to travel and usually take one or two cruises per year.

Sandra is a reliable and capable house sitter. She was respectful of my property, followed instructions, and took great care of my three cats, one of which needs a pill twice a day. My pets really warmed up to her!

Sandy did a wonderful job watching our dog Coco. Sandy was very responsive and sent lots of pics. She is very easy to work with and I know we will be reaching out to her again.

Sandra was excellent with our dogs. She handled their first visit in a calm and professional manner. Even though our two dogs were initially excited and barking a lot. By the time we got home Sandra and the dogs were like best friends. We would strongly recommend her.

Sandra did a great job taking care of our cat, Telluride. She was excellent at sending pictures and a report every day she was here. I will not hesitate to ask her again.

Schedule

I'm available to care for your pets anytime. I'm happy to come to your home and stay overnite, if that is needed. Pets are not allowed where I live

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Sandra can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I like to know that the pet I'm caring for needs medications and the schedule to follow. I like a daily plan, such as, eats about 7-8A, needs out when first awakes, needs out about every 4-5 hours, snacks for doing specific things, etc.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
