Dog and cat lover

Pet care experience

I know what it is like trying to find someone who is reliable to take care of your cat or dog and not being able to find anyone -- but I'm here now! I have experience in several areas: I have over 10 years experience house sitting and walking/sitting Boxers, Pitbulls, German Shepherds, Labradors and senior dogs. I also have experience with cat drop-in visits with adorable and cuddly but picky eaters. I volunteered for a non-profit animal shelter in Puerto Rico called ‘Save a Sato’ where you foster homeless animals and bring them back to a healthy state. I am currently a Senior Scientist for the government. I have always loved doing Rover as a side job since hanging out with your pets is a lot of fun. I think it’s a great way to be involved with the community. Requested information about your dog or cat: I would love to know the story of how you and your pet came into each other’s life. I would like to know if they are scared of anything, special preferences as to eating, walking, and sleeping. Is your pet allergic to anything? Is your pet taking medications? I want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible while you are away. During the stay I’ll play with any toys your pet likes. I like taking pictures of pets and try to catch rare but adorable moments and sending them to you (such as a pet yawning, haha).

Svetlana was our first cat sitter ever and we are very happy we found her. She is very responsable and was flexible to change the schedule due weather conditions. She also helped to check the mail while we were gone beside feeding the cats. We will hire her again if there is an other opportunity.

I have been absolutely blown away by Svetlana’s compassion for my dog and cat. The very first day she was willing to wait for a locksmith after I accidentally locked her out of my house! My dog loved her the minute she walked in the door. She was on-time and sent very nice pics of my girls while I was away and really captured their personalities. I highly recommend Svetlana ?.

Svetlana watched my two cats while I was away for a holiday. She was very detail oriented and embraced the kitties VERY picky eating habits (twice a day). My timid cats loved her! A++

Size, weight, anxiety issues. I like knowing where they like to walk. What kind of toys they like to use. Any allergies they might have. Specific ways of heating food and serving it. Do they like iced water in a specific bowl?

A typical day

Please let me know all your pets little quirks, favorite games, favorite treats, where they like to take naps. Can we go out for a pup cup? Do they have a favorite toy they like to play with?
