About: I have taken care of my own animals and my families for about 10 years now. Including my aunts senior dogs. I love them all! I have a full time job Monday through Friday. I usually work 11 am-6pm but my hours vary in the afternoons. That being said I am willing to work with you to meet your fur babies needs! I will follow all instructions and make sure to send updates regularly so you know your fur baby is in good hands. I have dogs and cats of my own so if your pup or kitty is not friendly with others I can come to your house to care for them!
About: I've had pets all of my life - mostly dogs and cats, but my mom added two pet rats and some birds throughout my childhood to keep me well rounded 😆 I truly love animals and want to be become a veterinarian someday. For now though, I will be starting full time as a receptionist for a local vet clinic 😊 I have pet-sat for both my parents and friends throughout my life. If you have certain specifications such as they need to be walked at this time, or needs medication at this time, just put it in text form and I will commit to what you and your pet needs. My priority with animals is to listen and do my best to keep them happy and healthy. I have full availability Saturdays and Sundays, though I do work full time during the week - but have off on Wednesdays. I'm on Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri until 6:00 pm. So I can help out after about 6:15. For the pets in my home (two cats and a dog) I make sure their food and water is not only filled, but CLEAN. I make sure my puppy gets outside plenty, she is very well trained to not go potty in the house and to tell us when she needs to go out. With that in mind, I know different household have different needs - in my mom's house, her dogs have to go out at certain times because of their work schedule. So, a schedule is certainly something I can handle. Cleaning up if there are accidents is also something I'm fine with doing. Cleaning up on walks is a given, scooping litter boxes as well. I will also commit to other tasks such as brushing, feeding a specific meal plan, giving medicine, etc.

About: I grew up with animals and pets of all kinds. My family always seemed to have a foster or be growing its numbers. I have always loved being surrounded by furry friends- large & small. I can bathe, feed, groom, play, and even train your best friend! I have 5 years of behavioral experience, some college, and have worked in shelters and zoos across Oklahoma and Oregon. I plan to start a nonprofit animal program soon. I’m an open book; so ask all the questions! I am currently staying at home; I have ample time to adjust to any routines! Let me know what works best for you and we can work things out according to my Rover schedule. I have plenty of time for potty breaks or downright play dates. I have a fenced in yard, and a larger fenced in field. I currently house 2 medium sized dogs and two friendly barn cats. One of my dogs is energetic and playful, while the other enjoys sleeping, snuggles, and sunbathing- so your loved one should be more than comfortable. I supply enrichment for all species who attend, including dogs, cats, birds, horses, and I’m open to new species requests.
