About: I’ve grown up with pets and have always been around them. I’m very skilled in dealing with all pet ages, cats and dogs, and all kinds of different breeds. I’m very caring and love to take care of pets the best I can. I will make sure I do any caretaking to the absolute best of my ability. I have a very strong work ethic I am a very vigilant caretaker and provide lots of attention and love. I currently am taking time off from my job and graduate school so I have open availability aside from any personal life obligations. Pet care fits perfectly into my current lifestyle and I have plenty of time to dedicate towards exceptional service. I partake in daily pet care at my parents' home in many ways. I help with cleaning the cats' litter box, picking up messes/accidents around the house, and making sure to clean up animal hair with plenty of vacuuming and laundry. I also love to play with them and provide plenty of cuddles! Additionally, I have gained experience in pet care with our dog Coco throughout his multiple leg surgeries and providing 24/7 care when he was unable to put any pressure on his leg or walk. We have also had sick animals in the past that I have gained experience with. My parents also like to travel and I am the go-to house and dog babysitter during their times away. In regard to providing pet care at clients' homes, I have a year of past experience on Rover. I am always diligent about following all instructions and requests, and providing the level of care needed for each animal. Cleaning the home is also important to me and I make sure to prioritize leaving the home cleaner than I found it. I am detail-oriented and value going above and beyond with communication and exceeding my clients' standards.

“Grace did a great job with our high energy Aussie puppy! She was very kind, competent, and caring. Responded quickly and was very flexible when our schedule changed. We felt very comfortable letting Grace into our home and taking care of our pup!”

Our dogs are Copper (Pom mix 12.5 lbs), Dexter (Golden Retriever 50lbs), and Versace (Pom mix 4.2lbs). All dogs that come to our home must be 30lbs or under as we don't want to risk our littles getting injured when they play. Our front yard is 1500sqft fully fenced and I have secured chicken wire to the bottom to ensure small dogs can't squeeze through. Our backyard is 500sqft fully privacy fenced, so we are able to accommodate dogs that could jump a 3ft.

They are a healthy treat with no corn, wheat, or soy and come in many different flavors for dogs with different allergies. Dogs who board will be kenneled at night, we have crates available for use that are sanitized after each dog. We also feed meals in crates to avoid food aggression.

I have security cameras on the exterior of my home with all of both yards visible. I am planning on adding cameras in every room in the house. Dogs are crated to eat their meals to prevent food aggression. Toys are not made available until I have monitored how all the dogs in the home interact together on multiple occasions to ensure there is no resource guarding. All cabinets and closets are child locked so no dog is able to open them and get into anything they shouldn't.
