About: hi! i’ve spent my entire life having and caring for pets. i’ve helped raise both dogs and cats alike; big dogs and small dogs. i’m able to handle any kind of energy your baby has: high, moderate, or if they just love to nap. i can accommodate for all. i live in an apartment with myself and my partner, but my apartment has plenty of room for them to roam. there’s grass and spaces for me to walk and your dog or take them out for potty breaks as well. i live near a golf course, and if your pet loves going on long walks, the course is perfect for getting rid of some energy. i’ve also had cats my entire life and will always have a huge soft spot for them. i would be more than happy to care for your fur baby while you’re away. i am available full time for services! whenever i am not out of town visiting family, your pet will feel like family in my home. i can easily follow given instructions, and your pet will be receiving my full attention while in my care. you’ll also be getting pictures and daily updates with your pet.

About: Hi, I’m Becky — a lifelong animal lover with over a decade of hands-on experience in veterinary medicine, dog training, and competitive dog sports. Whether it’s a senior dog needing meds, a shy cat, a puppy or kitten learning the ropes, or a high-energy working breed that thrives on enrichment, I know how to tailor care to meet every pet’s individual needs. I have worked extensively in veterinary clinics as a veterinary assistant, so I'm confident handling medical needs, administering medications, recognizing signs of illness, and keeping pets safe and comfortable. Your pet’s health and safety will always be my top priority. I’ve also trained dogs professionally and personally — from basic obedience to advanced tricks and competitive-level sports like agility, disc, and scent work. I’m passionate about communication, enrichment, and helping animals feel relaxed and engaged, whether we're going on a walk or just hanging out at home. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, preferences, and routine, so they feel secure and happy while you're away. I have four pets of my own - two high-energy dogs and two cats - so I know how stressful it is to find trustworthy and reliable pet care. Whether you're looking for someone to stop in for a quick potty break, go on an enriching walk, or simply provide attentive care while you’re away, you can count on me to treat your pets like my own — with patience, kindness, and professionalism. I’d love to meet you and your furry family! I do not currently work full time, allowing me to prioritize your pet’s care! I can accommodate a flexible schedule, including mornings, middle of the day, evenings, and weekends. I may be new to Rover but I have been pet-sitting and house-sitting since I was a teenager. I treat every pet and home with respect and care. In your home, I follow all instructions closely to maintain your pet’s routine, including feeding, medication, and enrichment needs. With a background in veterinary care and training, I’m attentive to behavior and health changes, and I always prioritize safety. I do not currently offer care in my own home due to the specific needs of my dogs, but I’m fully committed to providing reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate care in yours.
