Information Silvia V. would like to know about your pet

What makes your pet feel comfortable and safe? Do they have any allergies or any specific health needs? Anything I should particularly watch out for?

A typical day

I like to keep your pets routine as normal as possible, whether that’s going on long walks, playing in the yard, or tons of cuddles! But, at the same time, I want your pet to have a vacation too, so any extra goodies and toys are always a plus.

Pets

Care for ONE family at a time!

Pet care experience

I have over a decade of experience with animals. I lived on a farm from 1st grade-college. We have close to 100 animals; dogs, cats, horses, pigs, you name it! I’ve had all kinds of responsibilities- from cutting goats hooves to caring for an abandoned lamb for 12 weeks (bottle feeding every 3 hours). I have experience with exotics as well (reptiles, a coatimundi, etc). I graduated from high school early to volunteer for a month at a primate rehab center in Africa caring for 400 monkeys at a time.

Silvia was great, as always! Communicative, and helpful with little extras like watering my seedlings!

I drive 40 minutes one way just because that’s how happy my dog is with Sylvia and Sequoia.

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.
