Care-Giver for DOGS, CATS & HORSES!

Pet care experience

Experienced animal lover available to care for all your pet's needs (cats, dogs, horses, Guinea pigs, snakes ect...) MUST INCLUDE ALL PETS ON PROFILE, cats count too! Hello, I'm Veronica and I have the best job out there. I am certified in animal and human CPR and First Aid and can administer medication to animals. I've worked with both domestic animals and wild ones at the wildlife preservation center. I'm always eager to learn about any animal of interest. I have a team of 3 sitters for your convenience if I am not available to you. They are both experienced pet care providers who also have profiles on Rover.com. I am available to care for cats, dogs, ferrets, rabbits, snakes, fish, farm animals and all sorts of critters too. I decided to give up my prior job in the medical field as an instructor to follow my heart. I did find the job rewarding, but I was not allowed to hold my students and patients or scratch behind their ear. So now I'm doing what I've always wanted to do, care for all the furry ones. Sometimes my clients ask me to drop in during the morning and evening hours to feed their animals, and sometimes they ask me to stay over night, as well as during the day with them. Both visits turn out to be "fun time" for every animal. My love for animals is obvious when you see me care for yours. If they could talk they'd let you know how much attention and love they get. Not only will I ensure that your pet is provided with its daily meal, but I also like to play with them. If its "Fetch" that lights up their eyes, then I will never pass up that chance to play. I travel to all areas of Tucson but prefer to stay within 15 miles of my home, just to make it easier to give your furbaby plenty of attention, as well as my own. I offer additional free services as well while staying overnight (bathing & brushing, ear cleanings and nail grinding if the pet allows it. Your mail can be collected, and your garden can continue to be watered) Message me and we can arrange a meet and greet date to make sure that your little one feels comfortable with me. I haven't met a pet that didn't like me. Even the elderly ones enjoy my care. I look forward to hearing from you. You are under no obligation to use my services once we speak or meet, so let's talk over the phone, or in person, it's free! My fees are very reasonable and I have plenty of reviews for you to look over. I also have Premium Insurance available for every stay. Please be sure to enter all info on every pet I will come in contact with or the insurance will not cover any animal unlisted. This includes every additional animal in the house that is to be fed, cleaned after, or walked.

Veronica was great. I get so nervous about leaving my dogs. She assured me all was ok with text messages and pictures. She was more then accommodating with instructions my notes pasted all over!! She was in tune with my dogs and their needs and did all she could to make them feel safe and loved. I would feel comfortable using Veronica again.

Veronica is simply terrific. Very caring and extremely competent. We felt completely carefree knowing she was with Cosmo.

We requested Veronica to stay with our dog for a couple days during the holiday season. Upon meeting her and seeing how good she was with Blue we had her stay the couple days. We have never felt more comfortable and reassured that our dog would be well taken care of and loved while we were gone. Veronica is a very professional and sincere person who has a love for dogs. We plan to have Veronica take care of blue whenever we need to leave town. Blue, cali and the house were all so well maintained.

Information Veronica N. would like to know about your pet

Prior to leaving me in charge of your pet please be sure to let me know who your vet is, emergency place of preferences is as well as what fears your pet may have. If there is a special toy they like, diet they are on, medications, or favorite spot in the house, please share. I would also need to know if your pet is upto date with all their vaccinations. Proof is appreciated. Is there a history of aggression? Does your furbaby enjoy doing any tricks? or have a special command they follow prior to getting snacks?

A typical day

I believe our pets are like humans, they need attention and a kind approach. To me, our pets are the most precious thing to us, they love us unconditionally and always want our love. Gentle, but efficient care-giving, as well as talking to them (even tho they don't always understand what we are saying) is the key to a well behaved furbaby. YES, I talk to the animals :) I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own, and 1 of them travels with me when I'm not petsitting. They are a part of the family and get spoiled more than children do. I will treat your pets as if they are my own and will do all that I can to ensure their comfort. I haven't met an animal that refuses to interact with me. My non-smoking and soft ways help them get along with me and feel at home when I'm around. Lets set up a day so I can meet and great your pet. You're under no obligation to book with me.
