Friendly & energetic pet lover
Pet care experience
I have a good amount of experience. I've had my own pets and cared for pets for 25+ years. I can help with Pet Walking and Pet Sitting. I have had my own dogs for 20 years. My husky of 7 years I professionally trained. My heart broke when he passed away almost 2 years ago. I have a huge passion for animals of all kinds. Currently, I do not have any pets. I have a 10yr old kiddo and am a full-time healthcare student.
Reviews
Great to my pal and did her best. My only issues was with communication and probably just rover itself, I’m a first time user. I booked Theodora maybe a month, month and a half beforehand and she wanted to raise her prices but didn’t let me know until it was the week of when I was leaving. Theodora was nice enough to meet somewhere in the middle for the price change but I almost felt like I was in a situation where I had to take it because I didn’t have the time to meet and book another sitter, I wished she would’ve told me sooner. Another issue I had with Theodora was on my dogs first night there, she ended up eating some of her chocolates. Thankfully Theodora took care of things and my pal is okay. I filed a claim through rover because Theodora told me about it and all is taken care of. What I didn’t know was that there was going to be $250 minimum charge for rover to take care of any accidents or vet charges. I will take fault for not reading through the terms and agreements in the moment it’s on me for not looking it over while I was on vacation, but I kinda feel duped here because it feels like I’m covering for a mistake that did not happen on my watch. My issues doesn’t take away from Theodora’s care and attention that she gave to my pal. She spent lots of time with my dog and always communicated once they were together or did anything. She even made my dog food when what I gave her during my dogs stay ran out. She’s very kind and she gave me a lot of tips to just be a better owner, I’m a total beginner. But overall not really the best first experience for me
Theodora was awesome with daily updates and pictures. Our pup had a great time going on super long walks or just chilling around the house. She made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of. I would definitely use her again for future boarding.
Theodora went above and beyond and took every precaution when caring for our busy puppy Willow. She made sure to keep her safe, since she still hasn’t gotten all her shots, while also making sure to socialize her and keep her busy. She initiated crate training for us and kept us more than updated with videos and photos of our sweet girl. Her son is incredibly patient and loving with even the most hyper pups like ours. Thank you Theodora, we can’t wait to stay with you again, if you’ll have us, as our schedules allow :)
Theodora was awesome with my furbaby Cuddles. I loved how often she kept in touch with pictures and updates. She was excellent with communication from responding to flexibility with pick up/drop off. I would definitely recommend :)

Safety, trust & environment
I have three levels in my home, all wood floors and furniture covers. Doggo's that come for boarding will be in a big livingroom on the main floor. We have a small fenced patio. Fenced grassy area behind the patio for play and potty breaks. I have water and food bowls already & a couple of doggie toys. Please bring your dog's bed or a blanket with your' homes smell. It really helps with comfort and anxiety levels for the dogs. 🐕🐶🐩

Information Theodora O. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if there are any special needs your pet requires. With your instruction and open communication, I will diligently follow your directions and provide the best care possible. If for any reason, there are things that I cannot do or perform for your pet, I will let you know immediately, so that you may find someone that is a better fit :)
A typical day
I love to provide a lot of physical and mental stimulation for your pets. It helps with boredom and keeps your pets happy and healthy. I love walking through my neighborhood and going a little further to some of the nearby trails. I am 1 mile from downtown Orange, 2miles from Hart park and the river trail. One of my favorite places to walk is the riverbed trail starting from Hart Park heading towards Chapman Ave. Closest dog park is on Chapman and Yorba. ( which the riverbed trail leads too)

I'm currently a full-time healthcare student. I have a 10-year-old son in the 5th grade. I have plenty of time to walk and care for your pets and have the skill set and training to make your pets as happy and comfortable as possible. I personally enjoy long walks as well :) A typical day for dog boarding includes 2 short walks ( about 15-20min ) and 1 long walk ( 45-90min ) The longer walk includes play time, dog park if applicable, etc. My days average between 12,000-14,000 steps.
