Trustworthy All-Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I’ve been a 5-star sitter on Rover for two years. Prior to that was the designated dog- and cat-sitter for my coworkers and friends for several years for many different types and sizes of dogs and cats. I’ve had pets all my life, including “stubborn” breeds, and respect all animals. I have no problem caring for pets who are low maintenance, or high. I’ve cared for elderly pets that require daily medication, cats who get fed very specific diets, and dogs who are extremely high energy, anxious and need constant attention. I’m happy to accommodate needs, requests and wishes.

Amazing! Went above and beyond to care for our dog and our house. Would 100% hire again.

Vesna was excellent! Very on top of everything and highly communicative. My cat Lola was so comfortable with her and I could trust that everything was taken care of while I was away.

Vesna was amazing taking care of our two pups Buddy and Emma who both have their set of personality quirks. One is very shy with people the other does not like other dogs. Vesna handled both wonderfully. Vesna shared pictures and provided updates on a regular basis. Moreover, she took wonderful care of our home while she stayed and it was immaculate when we returned. We highly recommend Vesna she is amazing and truly is a wonderful person and pet sitter!

Safety, trust & environment

I began house sitting and pet sitting for people I know personally, and was later recommended to others from there. A couple years ago, I signed up for Rover and made several repeat clients. I’m a young professional, and very respectful of property and privacy. I pride myself in being tidy — taking great care of people’s homes as much as I do their pets. I try to be as nonintrusive as possible. I will always follow and respect pet care instructions and directions no matter how detailed or specific. I’m not shy asking questions if something is not clear, but I am confident in taking charge of any situation. I love all animals, and I care for them as if they are my own. Nearly all of my clients through Rover have rebooked or requested to rebook with me. I also have reliable transportation in case of an emergency.

Information Vesna B. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know their general energy level, what makes them excited/calms them down, and how they react to situations (how reactive are they with other dogs? People? Animals?). I have been around and cared for reactive dogs, and I don’t count them out! But I appreciate any support that could help me, and full transparency so I can avoid triggers and better recognize discomfort signs. I’ve recently relocated to DC from the Midwest, so I would love to know your favorite routes and spots.

A typical day

I love to spend an evening on local trails practicing good lease etiquette and letting dogs sniff around new paths. For dogs who enjoy long walks, I love roaming around for an hour or two. I frequently go on walks on my own, so it’s a welcome companion! I typically prefer to avoid high energy places like dog parks, and generally avoid making doggy friends, unless I feel confident and assured by the owner they do well there or in those situations.
