Hey there! Thanks for visiting my page. :) My name is Veronica (she/her), and I'd love to be considered as your next pet sitter.
Please note, I'm pleased to serve Vancouver, Burnaby and Richmond!
ABOUT ME:
I'm a late-twenties mama to my furbabies, Taco and Naomi. You can check out their pictures on my profile!
I started pet sitting on Pawshake because I know the struggle of trying to find someone reliable to look after our little loved one(s) while we're away. My goal is to provide pet owners around the Vancouver area with valuable, trustworthy, and top quality pet care right out of your own home. This way, your pet gets to remain comfortable and stress-free in their own space, and you get to go away feeling confident and safe in your choice with me as your pet's caretaker. I truly take joy and pride in my services as a cat sitter, and I love connecting with new clients to take great care of your furry friends. :)
I bring 7+ years of pet care experience, plus my whole childhood growing up around cats, dogs, hamsters, reptiles, and fish. I also have confident experience with administering oral medication to cats, safely cutting cat nails, and cleaning cat ears & teeth. I am happy to travel anywhere within the Vancouver area.
SERVICES:
I am excited to offer 30-minute home visits for feeding, tidying up pet messes (litter box, pee pads, etc), as well as additional help around the home such as sweeping & vacuuming pet hair, watering plants at your instruction, and bringing in your mail or deliveries. Other small household duties may be considered upon request.
Services on weekdays are available during early mornings (~5-7:30am) and evenings (~5:30-8pm).
Services on weekends are available at any time throughout the day.
If you require an exception, please contact me prior to booking to organize a special visit time.
BASIC EXPECTATIONS:
Services include but are not limited to...
At least 1 x photo update per day or house visit; Keeping in contact with owners regarding any changes with the pet and if required bringing the pets to the vet when agreed to by the owner or in an emergency; Feeding the pet as required; Access to fresh water; Dog is able to go to the toilet during the walk; Basic medication administration (non-injectables) as prescribed; Pets are kept in a hygienic condition - any messes of the pet are cleaned up, and any signs of illness or injury are reported to the owner; Any behavioural issues of the pet are disclosed; Any special requirements or instructions are written down for the sitter to prevent any misunderstanding; If feeding is required, enough pet food is provided.
For more information regarding specific expectations to be upheld by you and I, please contact me prior to booking. With all of that being said, please reach out with your specific inquiries. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon!
Sincerely, Veronica. :)
Veronica is great! We had an exceptional situation where we needed fast coverage but also with a very ill cat. And Veronica was there. Thank you!
Excellent as always. Veronica takes great care of our cat when we’re away, keeps us informed, and makes sure he’s well fed. This time she also administered antibiotics daily with no problems! Highly recommend.
