I am a pet lover, but currently have no pets of my own. As a full-time teacher with a busy life, I am pausing on having my own, but using Rover to indulge, a few days at a time! I have been pet-sitting on Rover for awhile now, mainly around the holidays, but am looking to expand to any day of the week, for house-trained dogs who can be kept in during the day. In addition to Rover, I have cared for my parents' Beagle and sister's Yorkie for hundreds of hours, so I am well-versed on how to care for dogs. I love taking dogs for walks and playing around in the backyard, so there is probably no dog too active for me! My sister's dog is more aggressive, due to being a rescue that was taken from an abusive owner. I have learned how to work with this dog over time, and he and I get along quite well now. Note: this dog will NOT be present during your dog's stay.
