Dedicated Care for your Pup

Hello pawrents! I'm Betsy, and I'm here to offer your fur babies a home away from home. When it comes to hosting your four-legged friends, there are a few ground rules. First and foremost, I want to emphasize that our doggie friends would need to be house trained and non-destructive. Crate-trained is preferred, but not a must. To make sure everyone including your and my fur babies are comfortable, I would prefer dogs that can be comfortable in the same environment as my cat. Now, why should you trust your beloved pets in my care? Well, besides growing up in a household that was practically a Noah's Ark (complete with kittens and puppies), I've volunteered with ASPCA and Queen’s Best Stumpy Dog Rescue. I know a few things about pet care, but I am not an expert. Living with housemates who had their own mini zoo of dogs and cats taught me interspecies diplomacy. I've successfully negotiated treaties over squeaky toys and mediated disputes about sunny spots on the couch. So, if you're jetting off on a well-deserved vacation or just need a helping paw when life gets a bit too ruff, I'm here to provide a loving and secure environment for your pets. Let's work together for an ameowzing barkcation! 🏡🐶🐱

Betsy has been great about keeping me updated with details on Dolly. Sent a lot of pictures, responsive at all times of day, and overall has a very caring demeanor toward my dog. I did a meet and greet with Betsy and it really helped ease in Dolly for her stay. Will definitely use in the future.

Betsy is an absolute delight to have watch your fur babies. She took care of my cats just like her own and always updated me with how they are adjusting, their health and their eating habits. I would highly recommend anyone stop scrolling and hire her.

Betsy took great care of both my fur babies (my dog and cat) over the weekend. She was very responsive and communicated with me regularly with text video and pictures. My pets came back home happy and healthy. I would definitely use her again.

Betsy was an absolute pleasure to work with and took great care of my fur babies. My two cats were well taken care of by Betsy and she constantly updated me and helped with my anxiety. What I really liked best is that she treated them like her own cats. Thank you!!

I am happy to have found Betsy in Rover, she’s exactly the sitter I will always choose for my baby Simba. My cat is not the usual cat that can be handled well. He is withdrawn especially with strangers. So I always worry how he is but Betsy has kept me updated with pictures and videos to show his progress. Eventually, Simba got along with them. She’s very patient and loving and can suggest caring tips for your pets too. Thanks Betsy, till next time.

Schedule

I work from home so I have a lot of free time aside from a few hours everyday that I’m busy with meeting. This means that I can give your furry babies the attention they want and deserve almost all day. This also means I’m almost always available to provide updates or be reachable when you need me. Please note that even though I'm available all day, I would discuss a schedule that works best for you and your baby. Frequencies of updates, play time, and potty breaks will be discussed prior to me accepting the booking.

Safety, trust & environment

I follow instructions if you have detailed needs for your pet. I’m a methodical person open to technology when it comes to caring. I have a detailed itinerary that I can share with you that includes a list of questions that I will ask and note down any behaviors/schedules I need to follow. I will also, at minimum, provide an update in the morning and evening that includes detail such as how they're doing.

Pets

A typical day

I like practicing tricks with my cats once a day. I can do walks most mornings/evenings. We live around a quiet neighborhood with a school nearby so it's safe to walk around before it gets dark.

I do not have experience with large dogs. I would prefer small to medium dogs that are not high energy as I am not fit to take care of larger dogs, high energy, high maintenance, or dogs with behavioral issues. I need to know if their vaccines are up-to-date and whether they have flea/tick prevention. I will require vet information in case of an emergency.
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.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
