Pet care experience

I have no dogs now but have had dogs since I was a child. I believe animals are precious and will treat yours as if it were mine. I have a Masters degree in Social Work and my schedule is flexible. I often work from home. I’m prepared to give your dog love and nurturance while you’re gone. The last two dogs I had lived to be 17 so I can handle senior dogs and provide them with the special care they need. I’m very calm and will love on your baby until you return

Barbara always takes such good care of our dogs! She stayed at our house this time and did a wonderful job. We love receiving the regular updates she sends. We know Dixie and Cupid are in great hands with Barbara!

Barbara did great with Zoey and Zeus! We were gone for almost a month, which was by far the longest we've ever been away from the dogs and we didn't want to leave them in a typical dog boarding place for that long. She was great with them and gave us pics and updates daily. She even went out and got more food for them since we underestimated the amount. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking to entrust their fur babies with for a few days.

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.
