Dogs and cats are my passion.

Pet care experience

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 wad very sweet and I felt very comfortable leaving my cats with her. She sent me pictures and updates every day which really helped to ease my anxiety of being away.

Sandy was amazing! She was on time, was a great communicator sending updates and photos and took great care of our two small dogs. The dogs and house were well cared for.

Sandy is the best Rover sitter! I’m always assured my cat is being taken care of and played with - she’s now my regular sitter!

Pets are not allowed where I live. I will come to your home and care for your pets. I love all animals, dogs, cats, hamsters, birds and turtles. I'm not sure about snakes.

Information Sandra D. would like to know about your pet

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.

A typical day

I prefer that a dog has a fenced yard. Sometimes, I have mobility issues. I'm best with small dogs under 30 pounds. I do walk small dogs.
