About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, not just pets, but family. I grew up around dogs, volunteered with the Humane Society throughout college, and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I also have experience with senior dogs and dogs needing extra medical care. One of my huskies developed diabetes and eventually went blind, so I became very comfortable administering medications and injections, following strict routines, and giving patient, loving care. I lost my sweet Shih Tzu after 17 amazing years together, and now I have two spoiled pups of my own, Gracie and Lily. I truly understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I treat every animal like they are my own.

I always prioritize safety, supervision, communication, and making sure your pet feels at home.

About: Since I was around 13 I have helped walk, bath, feed, and even deliver litters (dogs and cats) for family and friends. Currently I am working as an er vet tech and am in school for my RVT, and eventually becoming a veterinarian. I have experience handling and caring for many types of animals that have been both my own pets and friends pets. These pets include rabbits, guinea pigs, geckos, snakes, and of course cats and dogs. Working at a pet hospital allows me to have a flexible schedule to help care for your pet! I work closely with owners to ensure timely care as needed. At home I have two cats, three dogs, and a gecko. I make sure everyone is walked, litter is scooped and or replaced, and the tank for my gecko is misted and lights are turned on. Once everyone is fed I finish getting my children and myself ready for the day and drop them off at school. I head back home to walk everyone once more and spend some time playing with them. At night they are fed, walked, and cleaned if their area needs it.

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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
