Information Amy R. would like to know about your pet

I prefer to meet new clients before taking a job so we’re all comfortable and I don’t appear as a stranger to your pet. I also like to be prepared for any special accommodations your pet might require.

A typical day

I let your pet’s needs and personality lead me. That might mean a brisk walk or a more leisurely stroll. It might mean playing fetch or tug-of-war or just petting and belly rubs. I do like to explore neighborhoods and find nearby parks or nature preserves to enjoy when possible.

Love all creatures, great and small

Pet care experience

I’ve had three dogs, very different from one another, but all well-loved into old age. I’ve also enjoyed looking after the pets of friends and neighbors when their owners are 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.
