What sets me apart is my lifelong dedication to animals and their wellbeing. Even though I’m just beginning my professional pet‑sitting journey with Rover, my years of real, hands‑on experience caring for animals has given me a strong foundation. I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ve volunteered with shelters, helped animals I’ve found in need, and cared for family and friends’ pets, which has added to my experience beyond my own animals. I have over 10 years of hands‑on experience as a pet owner. I’ve raised three dogs — Zoey (Springer Spaniel), Stella (Pitbull mix), and Merida (German Shepherd mix). I raised Zoey and Merida from puppyhood, provided senior care for Zoey until she passed at 15, and rescued Stella, who is now a healthy 12‑year‑old. Managing multiple dogs has taught me how to handle different personalities, energy levels, and needs at the same time. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I’m open to caring for any animal. I can follow medication routines, special feeding instructions, and I have a reliable vehicle for safe pet transport, if needed. My priority is always creating a safe, loving environment where your pet feels understood, respected, and genuinely cared for. Every animal deserves to feel protected and valued, and I’m committed to providing that level of care every time.
