About: I have had dogs of my own since 1999. Before joining Rover, I dog sat for family members in my home and in theirs as my work schedule allowed. Since joining Rover, I have been pet sitting a lot more! I I completed dog behavior training while volunteering for a local pet rescue. I have a fairly open schedule at this time. While I will be doing pet care part time, most engagements should work with my schedule. With Rover, you are most likely to find me available by planning one to two months ahead. When in your home, I will strive to maintain your pet’s environment and schedule. I want your pet to be comfortable while we are together.

Michelle has been a life saver for my sanity of leaving my pets for 3 weeks. From the very first time we met her it was so organic with meeting our dogs because she knew exactly how to approach them and getting them comfortable while meeting her. She was so accommodating to us in arranging a few times before our vacation to come over so our dogs were familiar with her before our vacation. Before we went on the vacation (which will be in a few days) our dogs already recognize her and are totally comfortable with her. I will totally recommend her! She’s amazing!!!

Emma was fantastic with our pets! She handled drop-in visits for our two dogs and one cat while my partner and I were out of town, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was always on time, super communicative, and clearly very caring with all three of them. We really appreciated the updates and the peace of mind knowing our pets were in great hands. We’ll absolutely be booking Emma again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful pet sitter!

Amy did a great job taking care of our cats. One of them needs medication and she made sure he got his meds and they both got some love in our absence. We will definitely use her in the future and would recommend her to any of our friends to care for their fur babies.

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life. I worked in a veterinary office as a vet assistant for around 5 years. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all ages sizes and lifestyles and can assist with any type of medical needs they may have! I’m currently a stay at home mom, I have a lot of free time that I would love to fill by loving on your pets! I can take dogs on walks, drop in to check on them, let them out, play with them, snuggle them, feed them, administer medication, I can also drop in and check on cats, feed them, administer medication, play with them and snuggle them! Anything your pets need, I can be there to help keep them happy and healthy 😊 I have a fenced in yard, 3 dogs and a cat of my own who love to make new friends, I do have a young daughter. The dogs get tons of snuggles and love and sleep in the bed at night, I’m also more than happy to crate dogs who feel more comfortable in their own space!

McKinzey was great! We just had her over to let the dogs out a few times and she was wonderful. She communicated well on how each visit went and she went above and beyond, walking out in the yard with out dogs to make sure they did their business, even though it was cold outside and we have a fenced yard!

I rebooked Gracie! She truly has an amazing personality! And is extremely capable to handle my elder cat who needs a little extra attention and more daily steps when being watched. Gracie has been morning but amazing, very communicative and is willing to take those extra steps my sweet girl needs! Highly recommend Gracie to be your pet sitter and I will continue to use her!

We rebooked Kelly to watch our dogs when we were out of town and she was fantastic as usual. One of our foster dogs can be a little nervous around new people and Kelly was great with her. We got back to dogs who were relaxed and totally normal. It was as if we’d just stepped out for a normal work day! Kelly kept their routines running smoothly. It’s like they barely noticed we were gone! We will definitely book with her again!
