She did amazing, I will be asking for her service again. When I got home about an hour after she had returned my furbabies from their walk they were excited to see me per usual but not jumping off the wall. I did get a movement alert from our camera facing the driveway, and it was her expertly handling both of my giant furbabies while leaving the house. Usually our younger one tries ripping people's shoulders out but he was walking very pleasantly next to her. She did great I would give 10 stars if it were possible.

About: I've had small dogs, large dogs, puppies and high maintenance senior dogs that needed extra care and patience. I walk them, carry them, give them time to sniff & enjoy the outside and live their best lives. I currently work part time with a flexible schedule because my dogs are a priority for me as I know yours are for you! So I'm able to help whenever I am needed. I can stop by and give your dogs potty time, walks, treats and/or meals. I can administer meds if needed. I can come and go as needed.

About: I may not have a dog, but I have taken care of dogs and been around them for many years. I was around many family members who had dogs such as Newfoundlands, Labradors, and little dogs such as Chihuahuas. I pet sit four cats and a dog several times for a family member while she was on vacation and that was a very good experience. Your fur babies will be well cared for and given lots of love and attention. I do not have a dog or cat of my own currently. However, I have taken care of many cats in a rescue. I have pet sit many times and it is something I enjoy. I dream of fostering dogs and possibly cats in the future, as animals make me happy. Your pet will be in great care and their safety is what matters most before anything else. Your pets needs are my top priority and I will do whatever needs to be done for them to be content. If your dog is a senior or has a disability, I am able to adapt to whatever needs to be modified for their needs.

About: I have taken care of dogs for years. I believe they are apart of your family and are your children. Last year I watched about 15 dogs at one time back to back for the holidays! They all slept in my bed. I have had dogs in every size from big black labs to small chihuahua. I have watched several dogs that have had to have medication. I have taken care of a pup and put 4 drops in each eye 3 times a day.I have taken care of a sweet pup that was blind so I had to clap for it to get its way around. I absolutely love animals and showing them that they matter. I stay at home with my two children that also love animals so my schedule is always open. I am very flexible for your convenience. If I am away from my home it's mainly in the evenings or to take my kids to appts which varies. I have a fenced-in backyard on Travis AFB that looks out to the hills and trains along with several dog parks around me. I also have a big garage where if it rains they can be played within a big open space as in fetch or tug of war!! I love to send so many pictures and videos to the dog mommy and daddy also, so you won't have to worry about how they are doing! I have two children aged 3 & 1 that adore dogs and are great with them. Our little 8 lb Shih Tzu puppy will also be around, she sleeps in a play yard and is very well with other dogs. My husband also lives in the household but is gone during the day. We love to go on walks and runs every day!!! We LOVE the outdoors.

About: I grew up with two cats, so I love cats as well as dogs. In 2019, I adopted an incredibly loving, gorgeous lab pit named Lucy, and she keeps me very active every day! She was a rescue dog, and although we were originally fostering her, I bonded with her too much to let her go. I’ve always been a natural introvert and have been drawn to the compassion of animals. I believe we can learn more about our own humanity through caring for animals. I look forward to meeting your amazing furry friends! In addition to Rover, I substitute teach right now, and this allows me to have a very flexible schedule. It's closer to part-time than full-time. My priority is to listen and adapt to each client’s needs/preferences, so that both the client and their pets will be as happy as possible.

About: I have had dogs in my house for the past 17 years. I am looking to care for your animals and show them love and joy. I enjoy being around animal friends very much. I am a very big animal lover. I love cuddling animals and making them feel loved. I love it when pet parents leave me great directions and I love sending them notes or pictures back of their babies to brighten their days. My favorite thing is sending pet parents their pictures of their babies so they can see how they're doing. Please let me know what special treats, blankets, or toys make your pets happy because happy pets are the best and they make their owners happy. Feel free to contact me with any other inquiries. I currently work a part-time job. my schedule is pretty flexible as long as I have early enough notice. I typically have shorter shifts and am available whenever I’m not working. I do not have a fenced-in yard but I can keep your pup on a leash and play with them in the backyard we have.

About: I am excited to join Rover because of my compassion for animals and their safety. I have been around animals my entire life and currently run a horse boarding facility and feral cat rescue! The health and safety of your animals is my top priority, and so is treating them with the kindness that I would want my own animals to be treated with. I am comfortable with dogs or all ages, and I am very attentive to puppies and kittens and elderly animals in need of medications or therapies. My hours surrounding my part time job, which is 3 to 4 hours in the afternoon, is very flexible. I am confident I can accommodate nearly every time or day and length of stay. In a client's home I will care for the pets however I am instructed. However, I will never allow an animal to free roam or allow the animal to be turned out in a fenced in area that I find unsuitable, regardless of instruction, as I do not want to be responsible for the animal's escape.

Averi was great to work with. Sadie didn't require much this time around (just walk around the yard and get some lunch) but it was nice to know Averi was able to stop by and take care of Sadie even though we had landscapers here doing a lot of work (Sadie already knew all of them) creating a tad more chaos. Absolutely will request Averi again.
