Information Arlene T. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there any special needs, any behavior I should watch out for, and any specific commands to call your pet to attention.

A typical day

I am only watching one dog at a time- or multiple dogs from the same household. I attempt to stick to the routine you have in place- feeding times, food prep, quantity, walk times, distance, etc. Your only responsibility is to provide clear instructions, the food, bowls, medications, treats, any toys, bedding, poop bags, leash, collar or harness.

Pet care experience

I've had furry friends since age 6. I've been through every stage of a dog's life, and many of them were rescues. I'm familiar with using pee pads, doggie diapers, and administering medications. I attempt to stick to the routine you have in place- feeding times, food prep, quantity, walk times, distance, etc. I have higher rates because of my experience. I'm comfortable caring for cats and dogs alike. I have two cats and shared custody of a gigantic dog (see pictures for Lucy). Yes, they all get along. I am not offering boarding at this time; only walks, check-ins, and local overnight stays. Sometimes I make exceptions; reach out and I'll respond within 48 hours.

We are a returning customer and Arlene has always been amazing and super accommodating, even last minute. I know I can relay on her and she’s always taking care of our puppy’s needs and ensuring she has great and engaging walks all while staying safe.

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.
