Hello it’s so nice to meet you and your fur babies! My name is Taylor and I moved to the Orlando area last year so I’m still learning my way around. I live with my husband and our two huskies, Sarge & Elsa- both rescues! I am 26 years old and this is currently my full-time job as I wait to get back into school to get my masters! I became a sitter on Rover back in our hometown in 2018. I have met so many dogs and cats and also their humans and it’s truly been so rewarding. I am a animal lover. I give my complete gratitude to my dog Kimba, who passed away in June 2020, for being the reason I am so passionate about dogs. Granted even when I was little I hung out with my neighbors golden retriever every single day after school for probably 3 years- I swore that dog was my best friend lol. Kimba and I had such a special bond and the love I had for her and she had for me really meant the world to me. It opened my eyes to how absolutely priceless and amazing it is to be loved by a dog. To me, they are part of the family. I can assure you that while your babies are my care, they will be treated as just that- a part of the family! I will love on them, care for them and make it my top priority to make them feel happy & relaxed while you’re away! I am currently booking for: 1) WALKS 2) DROP-INS 3) HOUSE SITTING Walks & drop-ins work best for me right now. We just rescued Elsa, a 3 year old husky, and we are dealing with some separation anxiety and house training issues and so we are patiently and efficiently handling those which means I can’t be away from the house ALL day. For drop-ins & walks I will come by your house however many times a day you need me to- 30-60 minutes at a time and feed them, play with them, walk them, whatever you’d need me to do! I will do this up to 3x a day. ** Due to gas prices being higher, if your location is 20 or minutes away, I will only do 60 minute walks/drop-ins. This makes the travel and time more manageable. (Traffic jams/accidents/rush hour are not factors in this. I understand those things can not be predicted). This is based solely on GPS and what the drive time is in general. I am sorry if this is an inconvenience for anybody, but with so many clients booking, the travel adds up time and money for gas on my end! As for HOUSE SITTING- I have two versions: 1) Lengthy visits throughout the day that require me to be there for several hours at a time OR more than 4 hours of drop-ins/walks. I do not stay the night, but spend a lot of time during the day starting at whatever time in the morning you’d need me to be there by! This option works out great for me since as stated above, I have a dog that requires special training and being gone all night can sometimes be tricky depending on what my husbands work schedule looks like for that scheduled time! & 2) house sitting but I stay the night. This means I will check-in and walk your dog periodically throughout the day & stay in your home at night with your pets! However, I do want to also mention here, I will have to spend some time away during the day to take care of my own dogs, but can be back and forth for several hours at each place- yours & mine! We can work out the best times and a schedule for me to leave to work around your dogs normal routine, no problem at all! REPEAT CLIENTS OR CLIENTS THAT HAVE USED ME IN THE PAST- read through some of the above information as some things have changed (like time I can spend in your home with house sitting!) if you’ve used me in the past, reach out to me before booking- and I will adjust and work with you- BECAUSE IN THE END IT IS BECAUSE OF YOU THAT MY ROVER BUSINESS HAS SEEN GROWTH AND SUCCESS! and I am so grateful! I am always looking for long-term clients! It helps both parties - you & me, by having a schedule and knowing what days you’ll need care whether that be daily because you work long hours and need someone to let your puppy out during the day or for someone who travels a lot for work or play and knowing you have someone reliable to always contact to watch your fur baby! If you chooose to be a long-term client, I do recommend trying to book me out 4-3 weeks out from when you’ll need me, so I can be sure to be available for you! I try to give my repeat clients and long-term clients, first come first serve! PUPPY RATES: I charge a puppy rate for any dog under the age of 1 year - that’s how Rover distinguishes a puppy. I charge a higher rate for pups considering they are usually much more work! HOWEVER, exceptions can be made. Talk with me and we will see. Some pups at 6 months old are already so well trained and house broken, while others may still be figuring it out- each dog is different so I will definitely work with you on this!
