Animal lover

Hello I'm an Experienced Pet Sitter I have worked with animals for more then 6 years. I'm comfortable with Large and Small Animals, from Exotics to livestock. I can do in home Sitting or in my own Household whichever makes you comfortable. I have volunteered at the Bastrop Animal Shelter in Bastrop Tx. I love working with Animals. My schedule is open,I'm very patient with every animal. I'm always on time never late. I have a calm way with every animal Ive not met one animal that didn't like me. every pet will get treated special. I get to know the pets likes and dislikes. I pay close attention when animals interact.So nothing goes wrong. :) All animals are treated very well. I'm a proud animal lover! I work for Rover Full time. I’m able to work anytime I’m needed. I always respond in a timely manner. Anytime you need me I’m here. I make sure the owner is always updated with photos,videos,and updates several times throughout the visit. I always let the owner know if I have any concerns,

So sweet and great with communication! We have a very reactive dog on the house hold who resource guards food and treats. And Zelma was sure to follow all of the protocols to keep the pups safe

Pets

A typical day

we will walk around safe areas. I Always walk on the left-hand side of the street because its the right way to do things, I use sidewalks whenever they are available, I make sure the animal is properly in harness or leash before the walk starts. safety is number 1. playing games like tug or fetch is fun if the dog is allowed and knows how to play I can teach if the owner wants me to.

Let me know if you have special instructions for your pets. If they have any allergies to anything, if they need anything to keep them from getting anxious or anyway I am able to make sure they are fully comfortable.
