About: I've been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember, with a special love for large breed dogs and caring for orphaned or vulnerable animals. I currently have a Rottweiler and two cats of my own, so I understand the importance of providing pets with safe, loving, and reliable care. My professional experience began as a kennel technician at a veterinary clinic, where I worked for over a year caring for dogs and cats, monitoring their health and behavior, administering medications as directed, and maintaining a clean, low-stress environment. I later had the opportunity to train as a professional dog groomer, and I quickly fell in love with the craft. I've now been grooming for over two years and currently work part-time as a groomer in a veterinary clinic. Working in a veterinary setting has given me experience handling pets of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and medical needs. Whether your pet is energetic, senior, shy, or requires extra patience, I'll care for them as if they were my own. In addition to dogs and cats, I also have hands-on experience caring for a variety of exotic and outdoor animals. Over the years, I've personally owned and cared for fish, birds, mice, chickens, ducks, rabbits, and pigs. If your family includes exotic pets, backyard animals, or small livestock, I'd be happy to discuss their specific care needs to see if I'm a good fit. I also have experience caring for orphaned neonatal animals, including tube feeding and providing around-the-clock supportive care when needed. If you're currently fostering orphaned babies or have special care requirements, feel free to reach out so we can discuss how I can help. My goal is always to make every animal feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while giving you complete peace of mind. I'd be happy to care for your pets whenever you need an extra helping hand! whether you're heading out of town, working long hours, or just need someone to check in on your furry (or feathered!) family members, I'm here to help. I know firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your pets behind, so I'll provide the same love, attention, and dependable care that I'd want for my own animals. my goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I strive to provide care that goes above and beyond simply meeting their basic needs. whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or stopping by for visits, I'll take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. because I work in the animal field, I'm familiar with recognizing changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, and overall health that could indicate something isn't right. while I'm not a veterinarian, I know what warning signs to watch for and will contact you immediately if I notice anything concerning. if an emergency arises, I'll remain calm, follow your instructions, and seek veterinary care if needed. I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, compassion, and close attention to their individual needs. my goal is for you to feel completely confident that your beloved companion is in caring, capable hands while you're away.
About: I've taken care of dogs, as well as cats since I was six. My pet experience with dogs is of varying size, energy level, and maintenance. From my moms dog who was a German shepherd, Rottweiler, and chocolate lab mix, to a large stray dog that mix have been a Great dane and boxer mix, and currently 2 small dogs, Angel and Charlie. I do have experience with diabetic dogs as my dog, Charlie, is diabetic. I have experience as well with handling high energy dogs like my dog, Angel, who is chihuahua and jack Russell terrier mix. I am currently unemployed, but live with my mom and take care of my sister, who is 17 years old, I drive her to school at 7 am and pick her up at 3:43 p.m. I am available between then and after 7 p.m. as I have to give my dog Charlie her insulin shots and scheduled feeding twice a day. On weekends I am available at 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and anytime after 7 p.m. I offer dog walking, over night watches, as well as general care for the dog(s) whether it be scheduled feedings, scheduled dog walks, scheduled medication, etc. Anything you are looking for specifically, let me know your schedule, your dog(s) schedule, what you are looking for and I will let you know if I can bring the care you are looking for.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Markham. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Markham after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker 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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
