Pet care experience

Experienced dog care

Hi! I am an animal lover who is excited to help take care of yours! Growing up I always had multiple pets, so that means I am very familiar with their many special qualities and traits! While I may be new to Rover, I have cared for many pets in the past and was also an avid volunteer in the cat area at SPCA/PetSmart. I have experience caring for senior dogs who have medical needs, and I also have a dog of my own. I know that for many of us our pets are our children and we love them dearly. I can assure you I will take care of yours like I take care of mine, keep them safe, and give them all of the attention and love they deserve!

Yanel was fantastic!! She took our large dog on pretty short notice for 2 weeks. Communication and flexibility were excellent and appreciated and Yanel could not have been easier to work with. We never had any worries about how well our dog was being cared for, we will certainly use her in the future and highly recommend her!

Great communication! She sent daily photos and updates without being asked. She is a true dog lover and my 11 year old came back home relaxed and loved! Definitely will rebook!

Schedule

Pet care fits well into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for, including walks, feeding, playtime, and potty breaks. I enjoy spending quality time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

The safety of my own pet is my priority, therefore it is also my priority that your pet is safe. I am very aware of my surroundings, which ensures that your pet is safe when in and out of my home.

A typical day

I like to stick to the already established routine you have with your pet. I want your pet to be happy and comfortable while being away from home! We will have plenty of play time, as well as frequent walks or backyard breaks.

I’d love to learn as much as I can about your pet! Please let me know if they have any health conditions, allergies, or medications, as well as how they interact with other pets. Are there any sensitivities I should be aware of, such as certain sounds, words, or areas they don’t like being touched? I’d also love to hear about their favorite toys, treats, activities, and anything else that helps them feel happy, safe, and comfortable. The more I know, the better I can provide personalized care!
