About: Experienced Pet Care Provider with Banfield & Operation Kindness I have hands-on experience in pet care, having worked with Banfield Pet Hospital, where I assisted with wellness exams, vaccinations, and client education on pet health. My role involved handling pets with care, ensuring their comfort, and supporting veterinary teams in daily tasks. Additionally, I have experience with Operation Kindness Interstate Transportation, helping rescue animals relocate safely to their forever homes. This involved coordinating transport logistics, ensuring animals’ well-being during travel, and working closely with shelters and adopters. My background reflects a deep passion for animal welfare, strong handling skills, and a commitment to providing top-quality care for pets in both medical and rescue settings. I have a highly flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate ample time to pet care. This flexibility ensures that I can accommodate various walking times, including early mornings, afternoons, and evenings, based on pet owners' needs. My experience with **Banfield Pet Hospital** and **Operation Kindness Interstate Transportation** has given me valuable hands-on skills in handling pets with care and attentiveness. I am committed to providing reliable, compassionate, and punctual dog walking services to ensure pets get the exercise and attention they need. Safety, Trust, and a Positive Walking Experience When walking dogs, I focus on **safety, trust, and creating a positive environment** to ensure a stress-free and enjoyable experience for every pet. - **Safety First**: I use secure, well-fitted harnesses and leashes, avoid hazardous areas, and stay alert to surroundings to prevent any risks. I also tailor walks based on the dog’s age, breed, and energy level. - Building Trust: I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, pace, and comfort level, using positive reinforcement to create a trusting bond. Clear communication with owners ensures I follow specific instructions, routines, and preferences. - A Comfortable & Enjoyable Walk: Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or an active walk, I ensure dogs get the exercise, stimulation, and bathroom breaks they need. I also pay attention to weather conditions and provide water or rest as needed. With my experience from Banfield Pet Hospital and Operation Kindness Interstate Transportation, I understand canine behavior, safety protocols, and the importance of responsible, compassionate pet care.

“First let me preface this by saying this was our first experience with using the Rover app, with that said, Christian was wonderful with our boys and we were so fortunate to find her. She sent pictures and gave us plenty of updates while we were away. Our boys loved her and it was the first time we were able to relax and not worry about them while away from home. We arranged a couple of pre-trip meetings in our home so she could get to know our boys in their environment and we could chat and get comfortable with each other. We wanted to book her for future plans but she was unfortunately unavailable. We can’t say enough wonderful things about her!”


“I can’t say enough good things about Zacharia! He house sat for us and did an amazing job and was super nice! We received daily photo updates which really put us at ease while on vacation. Watering our indoor and outdoor plants was also not a problem for him. Great communication and prompt responses times. We really couldn’t ask for a better sitter for our fur babies. We will definitely be using Zacharia in the future!”


“Karina was absolutely wonderful! She communicated well, sent us updates, and the most precious photos of our pups! Our girls love her! Thank you so much, Karina! 😊”


“Amelia was very communicative, shared some photos, and seemed to have a nice couple of days w/ our dog. She was on time to our initial meet and ensured our dog was cared for before she left, even as our timeline shifted on return a couple of times. On top of it all, she left the house as clean or cleaner than she found it. We would definitely use her again if the occasion arises.”


About: I have years of experience raising puppies and fostering rescues. I have taken courses in animal science. I have over 4 years experience in house sitting animals. I am available any day. I would prefer to sit in your home as my home has 2 large dogs who are scared of the world. My goal is to make all of your travel needs easy and keep your pets calm by providing in home care. I would prefer to not bring animals into my own home as my dogs are afraid of everything. I can provide references for in home sitting if desired

“"I'm not sure I ever want to use another house sitter ever again" - my girlfriend a few moments before we went to bed on the freshly washed sheets in our spotless apartment Couldn't agree more. Raymell and Serenity were simply amazing. This was our first time using any app to have a pup watched, and for house sitting in general, and I am so glad we found Ray and Serenity. They were in constant communication with us our entire 5 day trip. We received updates for Ushi (our 12 week boston puppy), great pictures, and came back to our apartment cleaner than we left it (and I thought it was pretty damn clean!). All instructions we left for them were followed, and they promptly asked questions the moment they were unsure about anything. If I could leave more stars I would. We got stuck in San Diego a little longer than expected due to the tropical storm and Ray and Serenity were EXTREMELY accommodating and empathetic to our situation. THANK YOU BOTH!”


About: I love hiking and having a good old fashioned tug-o-war with dogs 😁. I also have an emotional connection with animals 😊. I know when they are upset or happy. I treat animals with upmost respect, because I believe we are both coexisting beings on this planet. I also have experience training dogs to be well behaved. Other times I just let them have some space for their wild side 😉. Also I have a lot of fun grooming dogs. I also have a favorite quote for loving dogs— “He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion. Our dogs will love and admire the meanest of us, and feed our colossal vanity with their uncritical homage”—Agnes Repplier


“My dog loves Jennifer. All pet owners feel like their pets are their children and Jennifer treats them like they are her children. I have never felt more comfortable leaving my dog at home. Jennifer was able to provide him with all necessary medications, accommodate our schedule, and even my neighbors love her.”


About: I have two dogs at home, a 8 year old Pomeranian, and a 3 month border collie mix. I have had cats and dogs my whole life; experienced with elderly cats, dogs and puppies and a new born kitten. I work Thursday evening, Friday and Saturday nights, and Sunday mornings. I’m off after 5 on Sundays, and all day Monday-Wednesday, and till around 3 on Thursdays. My dogs are allowed on our furniture, they’re also crate trained and potty trained. They pretty much do their own thing, and hangout and play with us when they want to play. They’re cat/dog friendly! However if your pets aren’t pet needs separation it won’t be too difficult seeing as mine are crate trained.
