Your Weekend Caretaker!

Pet care experience

My partner and I lost our 9 year old pitbull, Suh, due to Lymphoma in 2021 and although we are not ready to have another dog I would love to love and take care of yours. I will give all the cuddles and attention they want but If they need space I will give them space. I adore cats as well and I have one myself! I will be happy to watch either animal you have. I do have experience with giving dogs pill medication and I have no problem doing so, as long as the time is accommodating for the both of us! Thanks for considering me!

Sasha was amazing. She was great at communicating and did everything she said she would for my puppers. She made them and I feel very comfortable and even came to meet my Shephard ahead of time so the weekend would go smoothly. Definitely would recommend and use again!!

I will follow instructions you have set for your animals, as they like a routine and I'd like to be able to stick to it. Some are more complex than others and that's totally fine! I also actively volunteer at the SPCA of Southwest Michigan, giving me more exposure to different breeds and personalities of dogs. I volunteer with both cats & dogs. Follow my Instagram @svangsho to keep up with the adoptable dogs + cats at SPCA in Kalamazoo.

Information Sasha S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your animal has any special accommodations that needs to be done. I.e. medications and how often, needs to go outside more often than usual. If they are jumpers, still house/crate training, has separation anxiety, etc.

A typical day

I enjoy going on walks for a more settle but productive activity. Fetch and swimming were my last dogs favorite activities and I'd be honored to do so for yours if they enjoy that as well. Im happy to take them to any public/dog friendly lake or park around Kalamazoo if you have a preference thats even better. If they are fine with just being out in the yard, that works too. Brain stimulation (enrichment) is important for animals and decreases anxiety and bordem, so if there are any activities, like getting a treat out of a kong, putting their food on a interactive feeding mat/puzzle and some sort of interactive toy, that I can give to them, please let me know.

Friday Saturday Sunday *If you are requesting I stay 3 nights total, going into Monday, it is an extra cost, and I have to be able to leave by 9am on Mondays, as I have work in the afternoon. Some of you may request a Saturday to Monday or a Sunday to Monday, there is no extra cost for that, if I can do the dates, I will have to be able to leave Monday mornings. I'm usually available all day Sat/Sun, unless I have any personal appointments to attend, which only take up a couple hours of the day. I will not leave your animal(s) alone for more then 3-4 hours, unless I have something already planned, which I will always make sure to let you know before officially booking me. Of coarse for pups and dogs potty training, or require more attention because of anxiety, I will make sure to be at the house as much as possible. Please make sure to let me know if leaving the house would not be ideal, based on the animals needs. *If you are requesting I stay just for the day it is separate from Rover, as Rover does not allow us to charge by hour. If you want me to stay at the house for most of the day it will be $13 per hour that I am there for 1-2 animals & $15 an hour for 3+ animals. Separate payment is required and can be paid after my scheduled time is done.
