100% bookings with photo updates

Safety, trust & environment

I am a RN, PhD and have two son’s which has given me experiences in predicting temperament and the right environment for your doggie. I have multiple areas in the home that are good for different types of needs/personalities. For instance, Older dogs or dogs that do not like a lot of interaction, tend to stay in my room because there is lower stimulation there. I have security cameras in the backyard and front yard. I’ll keep pets inside most of the day (unless you prefer otherwise) and let them outside to play, take a walk, or go to the restroom as needed. I have a 18and 9 year old boys who also love dogs. Our bulldog Ruth is 6 years old and usually sleeps all day.

I could tell Coal really had a good time with you and your pup. He was pretty tired so I know he had fun. I will definitely be using you again.

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.
