About: I have been taking care of dogs for neighbors and family friends for 10 years. I love taking dogs for walks and even to the dog beach if possible. I have a 10 year old beagle/bulldog mix and also a 7 year old miniature terrier. I have done everything for dogs from, changing doggy diapers, cleaning any house accidents, giving them medication, laying with them if they can't fall asleep, running with them and even giving them a bath. I give lots of love and attention to any dog that I meet. Any dog that is put into my hands will have the greatest time and will be taken care of. I am very easygoing and will do anything to make sure your dog is safe. If scheduling for the weekend, I am available anytime of the day as long as given a heads up. Comfortable staying as long as necessary to accommodate your pet and make them feel safe and loved. If having the privilege to stay at a customers home or having the pet stay ay my own home, they will be taken care of the way you would take care of them. Want them to feel like nothing has changed and they are with someone that cares for them.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Elyria
Lindsey was incredible. I was nervous to leave my dog with someone last-minute after our family was unable to watch her. There were zero worries to have. She treated her as we would, and Ellie loved being there. We received frequent updates and pictures throughout the stay. 10/10, would absolutely book again when needed!

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 .
