Pet care experience

BS in Animal Science, Bird Owner!

I have a BS in Animal Science and have 2 years direct experience working with animals. I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter, as well as received Volunteer of the Year award during that time. I've walked dogs, changed cats litter, fed rabbits, and made sure all animals in the shelter had fresh food and water, as well as clean spaces. I’ve always had a caring heart for animals, and am looking forward to taking care of you and your beloved pets!

Safety, trust & environment

I adopted a bird a few years ago and have loved taking care of her. She is a cockatiel, and takes certain weekly/monthly maintenance requirements, which shows I'm careful in what I do. Myself being also a fit athletic person makes me a good fit for all size dogs and cats, which I have experience working with at my local animal shelter.

My dogs are a handful. But Ben did a great job taking care of them. I’ll definitely hire Ben again next time I go out of town.

My regular full time job is an accountant. M/F I am free in the evenings, and weekends I am available as well. Having a consistent work schedule for my regular job gives me more flexibility to do what I want in my free time.

it is important to know if it’s had unstable behaviors in the past. Also the age and any behavior concerns currently. It’s also good to know if it’s used to other dogs or not.
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.
