Safety, trust & environment

Your dog is welcome in our home and on our furniture, and will be treated as one of our own. I have solid fencing on 3 sides of my backyard, with a metal fence on one side. (4 feet high with 3 3/4 inches between the vertical rails.) I will supervise your dog in the yard or take them outside on a long lead, as needed. I appreciate clear instructions on how you would like your pet cared for, and I will follow them respectfully. Does your dog have a favorite toy? Are there specific training guides you would like reinforced? Do they prefer to play alone or with other dogs? Just let me know what they need and I will be happy to accommodate them whether at your home or mine.

Pet care experience

I have enjoyed and cared for dogs all my life and spent many years participating in Agility training and trials with my Blue Heeler/GS Pointer. I have raised puppies and tended to them throughout their long lives. I am a sucker for a white-faced senior dog! I met my husband over 30 years ago when he was a veterinarian and I was a veterinary technician. If your pet needs medication I am happy administer it for you.

Leroy had a great stay with Anne! She was very communicative with regular updates and my dog came back happy and well cared for. Will book again!

Ann has been an absolute lifesaver for us! She is incredibly kind, super responsive, and always reliable—everything you could hope for in a dog walker. She’s also been very flexible with scheduling, which has made a huge difference for us. Most importantly, my dog Betty absolutely loves her. Betty gets so excited on the days Ann comes to walk her, and it gives me so much peace of mind knowing she’s in such caring and capable hands. Ann walks her three times a week, and I’ve noticed such a positive impact on Betty’s happiness and routine. I can’t recommend Ann enough!

We had our very first experience using Rover, and we truly could not have asked for a better sitter than Ann. Leaving Gypsy for the first time was nerve-wracking for us, but Ann immediately put our hearts at ease. From the very beginning, her communication was thoughtful, responsive, and reassuring. She sent updates and photos that showed us not just that Gypsy was being cared for, but that she was genuinely happy and comfortable. That meant everything to us. Gypsy is such an important part of our family, and it was clear Ann treated her like one of her own. We came home to a relaxed, well-cared-for pup — which says so much. We are incredibly grateful for Ann’s kindness, reliability, and the love she showed Gypsy. Our first Rover experience was such a positive one because of her, and we would absolutely trust her again without hesitation. Thank you, Ann, for taking such wonderful care of our girl!

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.
