About: I have a passion for dogs and I enjoy spending time with dogs and taking the time to train them. I am dog walking various types of dogs and focused on leash pulling, reactivity, recall and basic commands. I'm currently working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule. I work every other weekend in the morning and afternoon and I work a few nights. I have a young dog at home I often take him on walks and play ball with him. I also have a 13 years old English Golden Retriever. I still take her on small walks. I regularly walk two Great Danes 2-3 times a week. I working on leash reactivity and pulling.
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was five years old, and that love has never wavered. Over the past five decades, I’ve cared for an extraordinary range of breeds such as German Shepherds, Labrador Retrievers, Collies, Lhasa Apsos, Jack Russells, American Staffordshire Terriers, English Bulldogs, and Chihuahuas, among others. I currently share my home with three Chihuahuas of my own, ranging from 8 months to 7 years old, so your dog will always have friendly, familiar company. My experience goes well beyond basic care: I have bottle fed newborn Chihuahuas rejected by their mother, and I am currently completing CPR certification specifically for dogs. I am bully breed friendly and comfortable with a wide variety of temperaments and sizes. I bring reliability, genuine dedication, and a deep belief that every dog deserves the highest standard of love and respect, and you can be sure that is exactly what your pet will receive in my care. As a semi-retired professional who works from home, my schedule is highly flexible and centered around my three dogs. Your pet will never be left alone for long stretches; I'm home the vast majority of the day, which means regular walks, playtime, meals, and attention are built into the routine naturally. I treat pet care not as a side task but as a core part of my day. Your dog will be staying on a private two-acre property with a semi enclosed backyard: plenty of space to run, explore, and decompress. Please note that the front yard is not fenced, so all outdoor front-yard time is leashed and supervised. Inside, your pet will have a dedicated private room, cozy bedding, and a crate available upon request (crate reimbursement appreciated). In the event of any medical concern, the nearest emergency veterinary clinic is conveniently located on State Road in Swansea.

- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Assonet choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
