Highlights
Pet care experience
Veterinary Nurse Petcare
*Currently not available to do overnights, however, I have multiple other dog-sitters I trust with my own pets that I would love yo set you up with!!* I am a current veterinary nurse of 3 years. I am educated on the signs and symptoms to look for in regard to medical conditions, I want to bring you peace of mind while you are not with your pet. I am also capable of administration of all medications (tablets, liquids, injections, etc) I was also a kennel assistant for 2 years. With my kennel background, I am well-versed in pet husbandry, care, and behavior(s). I have now been on Rover for a year so I am extra comfortable with petsitting of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. If you have any doubts, read my reviews

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
We had a great experience with Skyler and highly recommend her services. From the initial contact, Skyler was responsive and prompt. While we were gone, we received daily updates and lots of pictures and it was obvious our pets (2 dogs, 3 bunnies and a fish) were getting a lot of love and attention. At one point during the trip, I realized we forgot to put a vacation feeder in the fish tank and I reached out to Skyler who not only fed the fish, but sent us a video to assure us he was alive and well. The next time we need someone to watch Ruby, Lucy, Peaches, Penny, Arnold, & Todd, we will definitely reach out to Skyler.
Skyler was such a wonderful friend to our two labs the last week. She was incredible at communication with daily updates and pics! The house was nice and clean when we arrived, and we could tell our boys were well taken care of. We would gladly use her again!
Skylar does a great job taking care of my cats.
Skyler is a pet pro! Our family highly recommends her to anyone seeking care for their kitties. She is a great communicator and took excellent care of our babies while we were out of town. We got lots of pictures of our kitties, and it shows that they adore Skyler. One of our kitties is elderly and requires daily oral injections, which Skyler gave him with ease. We’d love to have Skyler back when we travel again.
Skyler was great! She took great care of our dogs, played with them nonstop, and provided lots of love. We received regular updates with pictures which helped us feel comfortable and it’s always great to see your pets when you are away!
Skyler saves the day! I made a mistake on booking and had to add an extra day at the beginning of trip and she was able to add the extra day. My cats are very well cared for and never stressed when Skyler takes care of them.

Safety, trust & environment
I am comfortable going into homes that have exterior AND interior cameras. I just ask that you give me a heads-up! ALL services come with complimentary photos and updates.
Pets
A typical day
I offer house-sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking! House Sitting: I will stay with your pet for full hours of the day (excluding work hours) unless otherwise agreed upon. This service includes feeding, playing, walking, and bathroom breaks, etc! I will send updates that include photos in the morning, afternoon, and before bed. Drop-Ins: I will come feed, give bathroom breaks, and play with your pet. You will get updates and photos at the end of the visit! (If you want me to walk your pet there will be an additional charge of $10 depending on duration of walk) Dog-Walking: I will walk your pet around your neighborhood! If you want me to take your pet hiking or to a different location, I will do that as well! I will bring fresh water, a clean water bowl, and fecal bags with me to make sure your pet has the best and most comfortable experience they can. If you want me to feed and/or play with your pet after or before walking, please book as a “drop-in visit.” I will send all photos taken at the end of the walk!
