I have been around dogs since day 1

Pet care experience

Hello! Currently I am a full-time college student and have an internship, so I am looking to make some extra $$ while doing something which I love, and I feel like pet-sitting and walking through Rover is a great opportunity for me. I mean, I am away from home, and, honestly, the only reason why I miss it is because of my West Highland White Terrier, Phoebe. I grew up with dogs, and have been taught to take care of our furry friends since the early age. As a child, I trained Phoebe how sit, give paw, and stay. I find it important and very fun to play and walk with dogs, I believe that keeping our best friends active is extremely vital for their physical and mental health. Also, I have experience of giving the pups medication, giving baths, brushing, and other activities which are necessary, but the dogs might not be too fond of. I manage to connect with all puppies, even the sassiest and most temperate ones, I mean, I have a Westie, and terriers are a extremely opinionated !

Alexandra definitely loves dogs. We had Alexandra for a number of years. She treated our dog as a family, tried to understand and interpret her needs. She played with her while walking and thought her some new tricks. Really fun! I fully recommend her as a dog-sitter.

No breed preferences! I love all dogs!!

A typical day

I am very flexible with the walk routes, so, it is definitely up to the owner! I think it is fun to take the pup to the dog parks, so it can engage with others. However; I would go for walks in crowded area such as Union Square Park or Times Square, these places are not safe for animals, in my opinion.
