Your pet is the apple of my eye

Pet care experience

>>>Please scroll down for schedule updates<<< *>>Please understand that the rates reflect my time, travel, quality, and reliability. They are also meant to cover Rover’s fees that are deducted<<* Hello and thanks for considering me to help with your beloved :) I am a recent graduate and have been lucky enough to make Rover my full time job throughout school and on! My schedule is fairly flexible and I strive to be as accommodating as possible. Growing up, I had a Black Russian Terrier and two cats. Sadly, they’ve all passed but I foster kitties now :) I worked at a boarding kennel for almost three years and there I helped with feedings and play times. Occasionally, there were pets that needed medications administered whether pills or drops, or required extra support to stand up and walk. I accept all breeds and ages, and will take care of animals, aside from dogs and cats, if you have any. I try my best to reassure you that your pet is in good hands with pictures and videos. *Fully Vaccinated* I have recently taken on a part-time job and typically, my shifts are about 5-7 hours, and I am scheduled no more than 2-4 days a week. If your pup(s) need to be let out more frequently, I would be fine with having a neighbor or friend let them out, or I have a network that I can reach out to come help while I’m working. I strive to be as flexible and accommodating as possible and will make things work as best as I can, so do still reach out about inquiries. **Please note that meet & greets are included and standard. If you’d like me to come for an additional m&g, I’m happy to although because it is an extra visit, there will be an additional drop in rate charge. **The walk rate for my zip code/town is standard in my profile but there may be an upcharge for other zip codes/towns I like to know about any behaviors to watch out for as well, like food aggression or a tendency to jump the fence.

Simona stayed in our house with our 16 year old Papillion for 5 days and we had peace of mind knowing that all his needs are met. She was updating us through the days about the important issues. Buddy clearly accepted her to the pack. Simona is a no drama, reliable, organized and dog loving person. We feel very lucky she agreed to work with us.

Simona really helped us out with a last minute sitter need. The process was simple. Our pup was comfortable and we appreciated the updates and pics. Will definitely use again.

Outstanding! Simona looked after our girls very well. She sent us plenty of pictures and kept us updated during her entire visit. I can't say enough...

I like to stick with the pet’s typical schedule and routine as close as possible. If you take them out for a walk 4x a day or need to crate them when not home, it’s not an issue for me.
