Pet care experience

A nurse who loves pets!!

With a passion for animals and plentiful experience in pet care, I have dedicated myself to ensuring the health and happiness of your pets. Since after high school I have volunteered at an animal shelter for cats and puppies. There, I gained skills in handling and nurturing pets of various temperaments and needs. My experiences and responsibilities includes offering companionship, providing playtime activities, pet sitting, dog walking, administering medications, and have even assisted cats during their labor process! I provide personalized care and attention to each pet. I have an understanding of animal behavior, which allows me to create a safe and loving environment for them. My goal is to create a positive experience for pets and a peace of mind for their owners!

My pet sitter canceled last minute. Van L was available to watch my two dogs. Her and her husband were great. I got pictures and videos of the dogs. I also received updates as to how the dogs were doing. I was able to relax while away and not worry about the dogs. I highly recommended this sitter and will Definately use them again.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is my top priority. My home is filled with cozy nooks for resting and open areas for play. I have plenty of toys to keep your pets entertained and stimulated. I have a fenced backyard if your pets enjoyed some backyard time. I use non-toxic cleaning products and keep harmful substances out of reach. I understand the importance of social interaction and can provide ample opportunities for pets to engage with me or with others in a supervised and positive manner. For pets that need more privacy, I have quiet and secluded areas where they can retreat and relax.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day of pet sitting in my care starts with a warm welcome and a familiar routine. Food is tailored to specific dietary needs. Water bowl cleaned and fresh water is provided daily. Dogs - trip around the neighborhood or the doggy park if requested as well as playtime with toys Cats - scratchboard, feather wands, toys, and any grooming needs Rest assured, I always start by asking the owners for their pets favorite activities or games to ensure they are comfortable in my care.
