Happiness is a warm puppy 😍

Pet care experience

I have 4 furry family members of my own (2 dogs/2 cats) who make my life better. I am also an experienced veterinary assistant and a responsible caregiver. I will show up on time, do the job right, and make sure your pet receives the best-possible care. I will communicate with you and let you know how your 'fur baby' is doing. If I notice any problems, I will contact you immediately and resolve the issue to keep your pet(s) safe. Caring for animals is my passion. I love all animals. (Especially dogs!)

Verushka was wonderful, my Lola just loved her, she also took her for a walk in the neighborhood. I’m sure Lola is looking forward to her next visit.

Verushka more than watched my dog (I've moved to another state since then) she became part of my dog's life. We started out as neighbors and as we got to know Verushka and she got to know us and our dog, she had an open door policy for our dog to visit her at her home. We lived in an apartment at the time, so we'd open the door and our dog would happily take the stairs up to Verushka's apartment and spend time with her getting even more spoiled than at home! Verushka enjoyed loving our fur baby and he surely did not complain about the extra special attention! Verushka also enjoyed taking him on outings to parks for exercise and a change of scenery. To have Verushka take care of your most important furry family members means you will not have to worry about her being there, not worry about their safety, nor their health as she takes her responsibility for the comfort and care of your dog or cat very seriously. She will be there at the appointed time, will give your fur babies loads of attention and ensure their safety. Verushka has the experience as a former veterinarian technician, is dedicated to the best possible care of her own dogs and cats and is sure to transfer that knowledge to the loving and healthful care of your pets.

Verushka and I worked together at Tri-city hospital. She is very responsible and a good worker. Verushka always had her little dog with her and you could tell how much she loves animals. I think that she would be an excellent dog caregiver and sitter.

To whom it may concern: I want to highly recommend Verushka to Rover dog sitting service. Verushka is my daughter-in-law. I have know Verushka to be one of the most loving animal care givers. She has a history working with dogs at pet care clinic, and has many pets herself 2 dogs and three cats. She has taken care of my dog on several occasions. Dog sitting hasn't been her only care taker position, as she has worked in the medical field demonstrating her love for caring for her patients/people as well as her fur babies. Rover would have gained a wonderful and trustworthy person to add to their pet service. Sincerely, Kathy Gutman

Information Verushka M. would like to know about your pet

As a vet-tech, I have experience assisting with medical procedures for dogs and cats. I am able to care for animals with special needs. But, I need to know in advance what your expectations are for the level of care. We can meet to see if we are a good fit for each other. I can handle most problems with dogs (or cats) and have many years of experience. Other medical information is helpful too. Do they have any allergies? I also need to know all the medications your dog is currently taking. Any special-care instructions need to be written down with specific step-by-step details.

A typical day

I love to take the dogs that I care for to parks and areas they are familiar with. They love checking the familiar scents and seeing all their doggy-friends at the dog park. My goal is to try to keep your dog in his/her regular routine. I like to go for walks, throw the frisbee or the ball, and stimulate them physically (and mentally) with games and play time. Occasionally, we might even take trips to the dog beach, or a lake, or forest preserve and go for longer exercise sessions. It all depends on the dog, their exercise requirements, their special needs, and their regular routine that they are familiar with.
