Pet care experience

Trustworthy & Compassionate Care!

Hi! I’m a full-time registered nurse looking to pick up some side gigs doing what I already love—caring for animals. I have a strong medical background and bring a calm, attentive, and responsible approach to pet care, including pets with medical needs or special instructions. I grew up on a farm, so being around animals has always been second nature to me. I’ve personally cared for cats and dogs for over 5+ years and feel comfortable with all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. Whether it’s walks or drop-ins, I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well taken care of while you’re away.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Each of my cats have their own special needs. I am comfortable giving medications to your pets if needed as well as brushing, bathing, going on walks, and of course giving lots of love and affection. I use a pet sitter myself when I am out of town and know how important it is to pawrents that their babies are safe. No matter the pet, big or small, I'm happy that you would trust me to care for them while you're away!

Schedule

I work as a Registered Nurse and find that working with animals helps recharge my compassion and social battery before my next shift. I work 3-4 days a week and like having the flexibility to pick up jobs through Rover when I am available.

Please let me know about any special behaviors or preferences that your pet has. I will do my best to make accommodations so that they can learn to trust me while I am helping out. I assure you that no behavior will scare me away, I just ask that you are honest and upfront with me please.
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.
