Trustworthy Cat and Dog Sitter!
Pet care experience
Hello! I have grown up with dogs and cats. I have had pets all of my life. Currently, my family has a yellow lab, an english lab, a potcake, several cats, a hamster and fish! We have had rats, mice, and gerbils before as well! We also foster baby kittens and cats with a local animal rescue. I love having the extra cats in my home and giving them a second chance at life! It’s a full house. Having all of these pets myself, it’s hard when my family goes on vacation. We are very picky on who watches our pets. At this point, we don’t even all go on vacation anymore because we have no one we trust to watch our pets. I am on Rover because I want to give pet owners ease of mind and know they have someone who they can 100% trust with their pets when they are away. I am very over protective and cautious when it comes to pets. I watch doors very closely so animals do not sneak outside. I take videos of entering and leaving your home to ensure no cats escaped. I prefer to enter your home through a garage door to allow myself to close the garage before entering your home, versus entering through a front door. I make sure your fences are completely secure prior to letting your dog outside. I only walk dogs who have a correctly fitted harness and leash because I do not want any chance of them to get away. If petsitting, I am able to FaceTime you and/or send pictures/videos of your pets while you’re away. I know I love when I am able to do this with my personal pet sitter.
Reviews
Shani is very thorough when she watches my cats. Everything is done correctly, and I love the updates I get from her. I know they are well taken care of when I am away. She goes above and beyond to make sure they are taken care of.
Shani watches my cat when we go up north to our cabin in the summertime. She comes over a few times each day to sit and play with our cat. She is very trustworthy and takes care of my cat like it’s her own pet. I am always worried my cat will accidentally get outside, but I know she worries about that too and is so cautious by doors. She will send us pictures and update us on what’s going on. I wouldn’t have anyone else watch my cat besides her.

If you don’t need me to stay overnight, that’s fine too. I would still go over to your home during the time frames above to let your dog potty.
Information Shani C. would like to know about your pet
I would like as much information as possible about the pets before pet sitting them. A written list would be great. I’d like to know about their personalities, generally what they do during the day, their general behavior, etc. The more descriptive the better.
A typical day
This depends on where you live and what you regularly do with your dog already. We’d go for walks around your neighborhood. I personally would avoid dog parks, just to be on the safe side.

Availability
Please note: For house sitting, I am able to do overnight stays in your home, if it is a nonsmoking smoke. I will not be able to stay overnight in your home if you smoke inside. For overnights, I usually get there between 8-9pm, and leave between 7-8am. And then I stop in once in the middle of the day between 1-2pm to let the dog go potty. I am not able to stay in your home 24/7 as I have a FT job plus have my own pets I have to take care of.
