Loving your pets in your absence!

Pet care experience

First time Rover customers can use code VERAO58732 to get $20 off on my services! Looking forward to welcoming your pet to our house with a large, grassy fenced yard, centrally located in the city of LA! Note that I watch multiple pets at a time depending on the demand (especially weekends and holidays), so your pet must be friendly toward other animals. I have loved and cared for dogs, cats, birds, and fish since I was a kid, but currently only have 1 cat. I love the opportunity for our family to have more contact with various animals. providing worry-free care that allows people to travel even last minute when they need to. We are a family of animal and travel lovers who know from experience how difficult it can be to find someone responsible and reliable to care for your pet lovingly when you need to be away. I work part time from home so your pet will get plenty of human attention and choices of areas in the house to relax or play. I walk my daughter to school (2.2 miles roundtrip) in the mornings, perfect opportunity for an extended dog walk. If your pet prefers to be carried or stay at home or take shorter walks, that works too! I have a large fully fenced grassy back yard. I also have a lockable cat door in case your feline prefers indoor/outdoor access. I can also keep your kitty inside at all times if that is preferred. I have one young neutered male cat that loves company. If your doggy likes to have frequent backyard access, we have a magnetic screen door that allows the doggies we take care of to come in and out the back door and into the yard when they please.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a big fully fenced backyard that is lockable. If you would like your pet to be in a crate at certain times, you will need to provide it along with instructions on how you would like it used. I feed dogs separately as I have several rooms and yard that allow for separation. I am confident with elderly dogs and those with special medical needs to include administering oral, topical and injectable medications, gentle walks, carrying or walking pets in a stroller when necessary or preferred. I can only sit non-aggressive dogs in my home who pose no danger to cats, other dogs or children all of which are present in my home at various times. I will need you to confirm this if it is not on your pet’s profile before I can accept your pet into my home. All pets need to be up to date on shots and flea meds.

Information Vera O. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog gets car sick or nervous when outside the home, or around crowds, or if you would prefer your dog to not go on outings. Share what quirks your dog has and anything you have found makes your dog happy or more comfortable. Let me know if your dog must not have any treats not provided by you or bites of other dogs’ food left over in bowls so I can pay special attention to that. I will do my best to accomodate any special needs but note that certain requests or circumstances do incur additional fees that depend on the complexity and time involved. Prices quoted for drop off/pickup and other services outside the home are based on a 2 mile radius from my residence.

A typical day

Besides the long daily walk to school and back M-F, and playing catch in the backyard and nearby park, on weekends we also like to take dogs out to community events, hikes, the beach and anything else we would do with a dog if it were our own. I will send you pics of your doggo so you can see what they’re up to.

Availability

I am currently working part time, at home, so I am at home most of the day. I walk my daughter to school M-F 8:30-9:30 a.m,, which is a good long walk for the pups that enjoy that, so pickup/dropoff should either be before or after that time. On weekends we go out to community events, parks and for long walks and bring dogs with us whenever possible
