Pet care experience

Mature, reliable, and caring worker

I have had three dogs in my life, and fostered cats for the Ottawa humane society for years. I've also had rats, rabbits, hamsters, and fish! I trained to care for animals at a vet camp, where I then became a counsellor. I also took part in a dog training course at the same location. I love all animals and do my best to satisfy the needs of any animal in my care. I have never met an animal that i dont get along with. I have access to a car, so I am willing to travel up to 15km to walk your pet, house sit, or do drop-in visits to ensure your furry friend is doing alright in your absence. I look forward to meeting your lovable, furry pets and their owners(you).

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I will care for both your pets and your home with the higher respect. I will always clean up after myself and your pets, and ensure the house looks the same when I leave as it did when I arrived... often better.

Our girls can be a little high maintenance and Selena always ensures that they're every need is attended to. Having the piece of mind that we will come home to a clean space and happy animals make travels that much more enjoyable. Thank you, Selena!

Selena can host up to 10 drop-ins per day
It is important that I know the following information if it is applicable to you: - How long your animal can be left alone - What medication they are taking and how that is administered - Do they have any behaviours that I should look out for - Do they like to be brushed - How long would you like them to be walked - Do they get along with other animals - What vet do they go to - Emergency contact of family, neighbours, and/or friends that I can contact if I cannot get ahold of you in case of an emergency
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.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
