Owner away? I walk, sit, and play!
Pet care experience
My name is Sonali. Since growing up (12), I always had a household that had pets (bunny, hamster, dog, cat). I also helped close relatives and friends with their pets back in Panama before using Rover. From pet/house sitting, long or short walks, boarding, and of course, loads of love, care and attention taking care of our own family household pets. Up to currently at age 29, I continue to pet sit, and surround myself around pets. Mainly cats and dogs of all kinds and ages. I've got experience with them and I truly enjoy and cherish the process of it ALL. I am experienced and knowledgeable in this field and genuinely a lover of all pets, young, old, big, small, you name it. I live in Buckhead in a nice and quiet building complex apartment with friendly neighborhood, pet friendly and safe areas nearby to walk them as well as also willing to be at the pet owners location if and/or when preferred. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, adaptable and flexible. I wish I could have a dog and/or cat of my own, but due to frequent traveling before and my previous work schedule, it sadly hasn't been the right time to get mine. The great thing is that my family have 2 cats, my boyfriend has 2 dogs that i see and spend time with regularly, including rover pets i get to see and take care of frequently and for now thats more than enough to give them my all like they are mine and be around amazing 4 legged babies! Any and all instructions you leave for me will always be followed with the utmost care to keep your pets happy and comfortable!
Reviews
Sonali was great! Sent pictures & always answered my messages promptly.
Sonali is amazing she is so attentive and always sends pictures. She loves the dogs as much as I do. When I come home you can tell she has made them feel comfortable. Such a sweet soul.
Sonali was a great dog sitter! She took great care of my baby, sent me pictures multiple times a day, and left my house in wonderful condition! I’ve already booked her to watch my dog again!
Sonali is an angel. A life saver! She is the goat of all times. She has not taken care of my pets in Rover but by a Referral in Atlanta, last year. She goes above and beyond. She cares about my frenchie and German Shepard like it was hers. It is unbelievable. It is very rare these days to find humans as a whole to care as much as you do of pets that are not theirs. She is so selfless and so giving. I trust her and I cannot wait for her to accept downtown requests again!!!!

Information Sonali M. would like to know about your pet
Any specific medications, schedules, timings that are a must for me to know, routines that are out of the normal, anything else they want to provide! I am all ears. Let me know.
A typical day
Play outdoors and indoors, loads of snuggles in nap and chill time, treat challenges ideas and more! I can also take them to dope fetch parks I know in Atlanta, backyards, pet friendly spots, etc! (Only if approved or asked by pet owners, strictly has to be consented or requested to do so) :)

Availability
I'm currently working hybrid and at home most of the time, So I'll have plenty of time to play, sit, walk with them! I am available pretty much every day of the week and weekend unless it is blocked or booked in my calendar which i usually do every 2 weeks in anticipation. My schedule is pretty much always the same, but I am flexible and am able to adapt and adjust, and find ways when/as needed if it works for both parties. The only time the schedule will change, or not be the same, or there would be any new unavailability is if I am traveling or attending an event. However, in that case, I will always give notice as soon as I plan a trip, or know about an upcoming trip, with decent anticipation!
