Pet care experience

Senior adult who has had many pets.

I have worked as a vet. tech. assistant, and a dog bather for several years in the past, and also had a variety of all kinds of pets as a child, and while raising my own children. We have had birds,rodents, guinea pigs, cats, and dogs. I have pet sat for many neighbors, friends, and coworkers. I am an elementary teacher who is substitute teaching and tutoring in the evenings. I am available to pet and house sit on weekends, school holidays, and Summers. I am available to care for pets in their own home environment, as I have limited space, and a very small apt. with no yard.

Susan is a master at her craft! She is a true animal whisperer. She went above and beyond to care for our dog, Emi, while we were out of town. She sent updates and pictures to ensure we knew Emi was safe. I really appreciated how easy she was to communicate with. Susan truly cares about animals and has fast become my go-to sitter! Thankful to have found her on Rover!

Susan kindly took care of my three precious prince cats. She stayed in contact with me throughout the stay, sent me pictures of my boys, asked questions when she needed to, and was a great help.

Susan was so easy to work with and made the booking process seamless! I loved that she does meet and greets before booking to make sure it’s a good match! Definitely recommend booking with Susan if you need great care for your fur baby while you’re away!

I have experience with elder pet care and special needs, medications. My own furbabies had heart disease and hypothyroidism. I also worked kennels and daycare at vet's offices. Let me know of any special requirements. I can do under skin injections.
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.
