My dog and cats might be jealous of extra pet smells when I get home, but the joy I feel from caring for animals is worth ALL the side eye. I have a genuine love for all animals! ❤️ I spend the majority of my time working as a sitter through Rover, and I am looking for new clients in the San Diego area 🌴 I truly enjoy caring for pets and have 3 fur babies myself. I have worked in pet stores for years and have centered my career around conservation/biology/animal behavior. I have gained valuable knowledge and experience from caring for many different types of pets and personalities. I have experience caring for cats, dogs, kittens, puppies, senior dogs/cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, chinchillas, birds, fresh/saltwater fish, reptiles, and amphibians. I can administer medications to pets and have patience from my experience in wildlife rehabilitation. I am able to quickly understand the likes/dislikes of animals in order to provide them with the best care possible. I know a shy cutie when I see one! I also have experience working with senior and disabled (paralyzed, blind/deaf, etc.) dogs. I enjoy bringing peace of mind to owners with any special needs/requests for their pet. I love interacting with pets and taking photos to help pet parents feel at ease and comfortable with the sitting experience. I am very patient, kind, and trustworthy from years of pet-sitting for friends, families, coworkers, and Rover for 1.5+ years. I have pets myself and know what it takes to feel comfortable with another person caring for them. I hope to exceed your expectations in keeping your pet safe and happy. I like to plan a meet and greet whenever possible for new clients in order to help get to know your pet and their needs/quirks. I am very communicative and hope to develop a strong relationship with you and your pets! 🐾
