Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, behaviors, likes or dislikes that I should be aware of. If they get into the trash, chew items, or they're an escape artist, it is important to tell me ahead of time so we can have a fun and safe visit!

A typical day

I love to care for pets and accommodate what their daily life is like. If they like to play, or go for a walk, or have their belly rubbed, I try to make them feel as comfortable as possible.

Registered Nurse and Vet Tech

Pet care experience

I am a Registered Nurse and Registered Veterinary Technician with over 15 years of professional experience working in the veterinary and medical fields. I have strong experience with veterinary medicine, shelter medicine, emergency medicine, as well as with fostering and pet sitting dogs and cats. I have exotics experience depending on the species and feel very comfortable with husbandry. I have numerous years of experience working with sick, injured, abused and critically-ill animals. I have a strong understanding with medication administration, knowledge of medications and their side effects, and disease processes. I am also able to provide stress-free grooming while caring for your dog or cat in your home. I have been trained in basic grooming and feel very comfortable grooming pets. I have professional grooming supplies for a trim, removing matts, full body shave, bath and/or nail trim. Rates vary depending on size and services needed. P.S. I LOVE seniors, hospice and medical cases. They are my specialty!

Bethany is always more than amazing! I can’t express in words enough. The way she cares for our cat Venus, the way her little one gets to also interact with Venus and does so well on the drop-in visits. It’s very evident that she has a love and care for animals and goes above and beyond. We continue to hire Bethany whenever we travel and I wouldn’t prefer anyone else lol I’m very grateful that she is on this app.

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.
