About: I've lived with animals pretty much my entire life. I've had two dogs, two rats, a mouse, a ferret, and seven cats total. I often pet sit my friends and families dogs and cats and even guinea pigs and geckos. So while I don't have any trained professional experience in pet care, I do have an abundance of personal experience. I absolutely adore animals so I will do my best to treat yours with as much care as I have. This is my full time job so I will be available for all of my listed services every day of the week from 8 am - 10 pm preferably in day light hours. I am very flexible with my hours so I can prioritize your schedule. While walking your pet I will remain vigilant to ensure its safety. I will follow any rules/instructions given to me such as how/if to interact with other people/animals.
About: I have a track record of nurturing and training puppies, ensuring they grow up well-behaved and happy. Additionally, I have the compassion and expertise needed to provide specialized care for senior pets, making sure their unique needs are met with love and attention. I am a remote student and work part time so I have a lot of free time. I am available in the morning Monday and Wednesday, Tuesday anytime after noon, Friday all day, and then free on the weekends. I prioritize the comfort and well being of all pets. This includes adhering to their regular feeding and exercise routines, ensuring they have fresh water, and providing companionship and playtime. I'm also attentive to any special needs or medical requirements they may have.
About: I limit the number of pets so they get personalized love and attention. From shy senior cats to high-energy puppies, I have had and worked with all ages and needs. I provide frequent updates catered to the owner’s request. I like to build trust through consistence and long-term relationships so your pet sees a familiar face and is happy. I am retiring from teaching and will have a part time work-from-home job and will have plenty of time for love and cuddles with your pets. I walk several times a day so your dog (or walking cat), gets plenty of exercise. I have a fenced in covered patio so they get plenty of fresh air! Again, I walk several times a day, have a park at the end of my road, I have a fenced in patio and there is a dog park within walking distance of my home. If they ride well in a car, I will take them to a big park for walks and dog park socialization. I have had dogs since I was born and cats all of my adult life. I have watched many animals for friends, families, neighbors, etc. I have had rabbits, turtles, fish, iguanas as well. I have a special place in my heart for animals.

Thornburg dog parents share their Rover experiences
Alex is WONDERFUL! My dog notoriously barks at EVERYONE who passes by and comes in the door, but Alex walked in and knelt down and he was immediately comfortable with her. She’s kind, gentle, responsive, and trustworthy, and I really appreciate that my dog gets a good run around outside when my work days are long.
