Dedicated & reliable pet care
Pet care experience
IMPORTANT: I can service the following towns - Nahant, Lynn, Swampscott, Marblehead (I can make exceptions based on distance). I graduated from Essex North Shore and Agricultural High School in 2021 from the Companion Animals program. This program provided me with four years of hands-on experience in animal care, along with knowledge of animal behavior, nutrition, training, and more. Additionally, I worked at All Paws on Deck in Marblehead as a bather before leaving for college. As a pet sitter, I have been taking care of dogs, cats, and other pets since 2014. Apart from this, I am a lifelong pet owner and currently have three dogs, a rabbit, and a turtle. In the past, I have also owned cats, hamsters, fish, and birds.
Reviews
Veronica is a 5-star Rover sitter. During her drop-in visits, she paid lots of attention to my fur babies Zach Henry and Annie Bee and reported back to me on every visit. Will definitely book her again.
Veronica was amazing. I received reports every day as well as pictures, and she went out of her way to help with trash, etc. Definirely five stars from me and Sandie!
This was Veronica’s second time checking in on my cat and she was just as incredible as the first time! I so appreciated the thorough notes after each check up and the photos she sent. My shy shy cat was clearly very comfortable with and happy to see her which is the most important thing!
Honestly she was amazing. Paid so much attention to detail for our pups and really came through for us in an emergency. Very responsive truly went above and beyond.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I recognize that every pet is an individual. This is reflected in my adaptable care. Some dogs might want to play fetch while others just want to cuddle on the couch. I'm willing to be patient and try new things until I find what works best for your pet. I'm willing to take whatever time necessary to make shy pets comfortable. I love seeing animals' personalities emerge as they get to know me! I'll run around the yard, give lots of affection, or just sit quietly keeping a nervous cat company. I'm very open to hearing what your pet enjoys to make sure they get the most out of their staycation.
Information Veronica H. would like to know about your pet
If your pet has any unique behaviors or habits I would appreciate being made aware of them. This allows me to know what is normal for each individual animal and what behaviors would be concerning. Behaviors included in this include typical on-leash behavior, reactions to other animals, and any training expectations.
A typical day
I would love to hear what your pet's favorite games and places to go are. I'm very active and am happy to go on whatever length of walk your dog enjoys. I also know a variety of enrichment games to keep pets entertained and content. IMPORTANT: I can only serve Lynn, Marblehead, Swampscott, and Nahant at this time
