About: I’ve lived with mini schnauzers my whole life and love dogs! I’ve volunteered at humane societies for years & have provided care for all the needs of all kinds of breeds. I’d be honored to care for your pet! I’m a balance of homebody and active, so I would love to show up in the way that works best for your pet — whether that’s helping them experience enrichment at home, or taking them on longer walks if that’s something you/they would like! I’m comfortable with dogs of any age and size and available to do multiple visits/walks per day if needed! I’m very attentive on walks as well, as I have experience with more reactive dogs and dogs that like to put anything into their mouths for consumption. I’d love to know about your dog’s personality and any specific needs — food or otherwise, so that I can give them the best possible care.

Kelli is amazing! My 2 cats can normally take a while to warm up to new people but they warmed up to her right away! So thankful she was able to watch my fur babies. Love that she sends pictures and videos throughout her booking! Will definitely be asking for her again:)
ReeCee immediately felt comfortable with Alexus. Alexus came as agreed. She provided pictures of her walking and playing with my pup. She gave me updates as to eating, snacking, etc. Alexus agreed to be available for another visit should we not get home at the planned time. All was good when we arrived. ReeCee was very happy. Thank you, Alexus.
Maggie was great! This was our first time using Rover and we had heard great things, but Maggie blew our expectations out of the water. She was very responsive, posted great details and photos after every visit, and really helped my wife deal with leaving the puppy for the first time. We will definitely be booking her again.
Bailey was wonderful and the best experience we've had on Rover. From the time we met her, we were comfortable knowing our Leo (our dog) was in good hands, and we could tell that she cared for Leo and that Leo liked her back. She was very responsive and gave us frequent updates and pictures.
Madison is a great sitter! She made sure to come over and meet Gizmo beforehand and to get to know him. From the pictures that she sent, it was obvious that Gizmo was very comfortable with her & enjoyed having her company during the designated drop ins! Also, I love it that she lives nearby so the security of having a sitter nearby in case something happens while I'm away is also great. Will definitely be booking Madison in the future :)
