Pet care experience

Experienced Veterinary Technician

I graduated with a specialized degree in veterinary technology. I have been working as a veterinary nurse for the past 10 years. I am a Fear Free pet handler which is most important to me when it comes to caring for animals. I am able to adapt to the needs of your pet(s) according to their lifestyle and ensure they have an enjoyable day when in my company. I am available for dog walking and house visits for your pet(s). I look forward to hearing from you. Currently I am living in Vancouver, I have a flexible schedule with and able to come your way to care for your pet(s).

Selma has the biggest heart and is our go-to sitter. Once again, she exceeded our expectations being able to extend our booking to care for our cats during my initial recovery phase of surgery. Thank you so much, Selma <3

Selma is consistently kind, thoughtful, and incredibly caring with our cats and our home. We have booked her multiple times and continue to plan doing so. All of our cats love her and she has gotten to know their personalities well. Highly recommend!

Selma is wonderful, this is the second time we have booked her and she does not disappoint! She is highly communicative and so caring toward our 4 cats. They have all warmed up to her so much, and when we come back home, the house is in tact and tidy. Would recommend in a heartbeat. Thank you Selma 💗

Schedule

I have the privilege of making my own schedule which makes it easy to accommodate new pets and clients needs. I have two cats of my own I care for daily who are very active and keep me on my toes.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Selma can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I don’t have any breed preference, I love them all. I only asked to be informed of important medical conditions they might have or behavior concerns. It’s my goal to be as prepared as possible to keep them safe and happy.
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.
