Vet Nurse Training: High Level Care

Pet care experience

Hello pet lovers! In order to reduce COVID exposure, I am currently only accepting return clients and new regular (weekly or more) walking/drop in requests. My name is William, and I have been pet sitting professionally for many years. I was one of the first people to join Rover in 2008. Since then, I have become one of the site's top sitters and even represented Rover sitters in a NerdWallet interview! I am certified in Pet First Aid and CPR. I originally planned on becoming a veterinary surgeon. However, after finding out that I have mild arthritis in my hands, I changed careers. I have a regular job now, but I love being able to work with animals still get my "fur fix" through sitting. I am friendly, educated, and have a great deal of experience working with animals, sick and healthy, in and out of a hospital setting. I also work with exotic birds. If you have a pet with special medical needs, I will have no problem obliging. I administered pills/ injections/medications and assisted in surgeries daily while working as a vet nurse, so very little is outside of my experience and comfort level. If you wish to expedite the booking process, please include the following in your message: 1) Location 2) Normal walking/feeding/play routine (length, time of day, etc) 3) Medical/special needs 4) Any aggression issues towards certain people/animals 5) Any additional info I look forward to meeting your furry friends! *Overnight Pricing: For overnight stays, the listed price includes a morning/early evening walk and a potty break before bed (and, of course, snuggles and attention while I am staying inside a home). Any additional walks/special needs may incur an additional charge. **Camera Policy: I had an experience where a client did not inform me of a camera hidden in their bedroom and I was recorded in various states of undress during a stay. As such, in order to protect my privacy, I reserve the right to disable any undisclosed cameras and, in extreme cases, cancel a stay. Please feel free to let me know if any clarification is needed concerning this policy. Follow my pet sitting adventures on Instagram! @sfpetsitter

Will has been and continues to be the best. Always reliable and easy to communicate with. He genuinely cares about our two cats and we couldn’t be more grateful for his help when we travel!

Will takes great care of our kitties while we’re out of town and is very attentive and responsive. We love having him help out when we can’t be home!

Information William C. would like to know about your pet

I take care of every breed, every age, every size, every level of health. I only need to know if a dog has some kind of special needs outside of the normal feeding and walking requirements.

A typical day

I prefer to act as a placeholder for the owner. My clients tend to work during the day like I do, and spend time with their pets outside of the workday. I try to keep the pet's schedule as close to normal as possible, in order to minimize any potential stress.
