Attentive Pet Care You Can Trust

I am a Hospitality Management student at The Culinary Institute of America living in the Hyde Park/Poughkeepsie area. I provide reliable, attentive care for dogs, cats, and small animals, treating every pet as if they were my own. I am comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering medications, and caring for senior pets or those with special needs. I also have experience working with anxious pets and take a patient, calm approach to help them feel comfortable while you're away. Experience includes dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and fish of all ages and temperaments.

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize safety by following each pet's normal routine and carefully adhering to all feeding, exercise, and medication instructions. I strive to create a calm, comfortable environment while keeping your home clean, secure, and respected. Regular photo updates and communication ensure you always know how your pet is doing while you're away.

Abbey is the best! She took great care of our house and two pups while we took an extended ski weekend. Kept us updated and was flexible with some last minute changes we requested. We had a great trip and slept better knowing our pups were in good hands!

To help me provide the best care possible, please share any important information about your pet's routine, personality, medical needs, and behavior ahead of time. I appreciate knowing about medications, feeding schedules, favorite activities, anxieties, triggers, and how your pet responds to new people or situations. The more I know beforehand, the better I can ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
