Pet care experience

Hello there! I'm Veronica, a devoted general physician who recently moved back to the USA with my family to pursue my dream job as a US-certified physician. Currently, all the income I earn from Rover is dedicated to my preparations for the medical licensing exam. As a fellow pet parent, I understand the unique needs and love our furry friends require. I have a year of experience working as a physician and 3+ years of experience taking care of pets, my passion for animals extends beyond my professional life. I'm excited to bring my medical expertise and genuine love for animals to your pets!

Verónica is a great sitter/walker. Oreo does not give her any problems and she loves interacting with Verónica and Nala.

Verónica is the absolute best! We trust her more than anyone with our girl Daisy. She takes such good care of her and knows how to deal with all of her little quirks. Verónica is extremely reliable & treats our dog like her own. Thank you for everything! :)

Information Verónica A. would like to know about your pet

To ensure a truly personalized and delightful stay for your furry friend, I'd love to get to know them inside and out! Here are a few details I'd appreciate: • Your Pet's Preferences: What does your pet like? Favorite toys, treats, or cozy spots? Any specific dislikes or fears we should be mindful of? • Daily Routine: Share your pet's typical daily schedule, feeding times, and play preferences. Are there any specific rituals that make your pet feel comfortable? • Personality Traits: Describe your pet's personality – are they outgoing, shy, playful, or laid-back? Any unique quirks or habits that make your pet special? • Favorite Games: What games or activities make your pet's tail wag with joy? Do they have a favorite playtime routine? • Special Care Needs: Does your pet have any medical needs, dietary restrictions, or special care requirements? Are there specific behaviors or habits you'd like me to pay extra attention to? • Your Preferences: Are you currently training your pet? Any specific commands you're working on? Would you like me to reinforce specific behaviors during your absence? How often would you like updates? Daily updates or only if there's something important? • Anything Else? Is there anything else you think I should know to make your pet's stay extra enjoyable? I'm here to ensure both you and your pet have a worry-free experience! Your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priorities. Let's work together to create the perfect environment for your furry companion. I'm looking forward to meeting and caring for your beloved pet!

A typical day

I'm passionate about providing both mental and physical stimulation. I enjoy turning regular meals into exciting training sessions, transforming every moment into an opportunity for learning and engagement. For an extra dash of mental stimulation, I'm a fan of Kongs and puzzles – because a happy mind makes for a happy pet! While I value the charm of long walks that offer a perfect blend of exercise and exploration, I understand that dog parks can be overwhelming for some pups. Rest assured, I only venture into these spaces if they appear safe and welcoming. It's all about tailoring the experience to your pet's comfort and happiness. I'm here to create an enriching, joyful environment for your beloved companion
