Availability

I am a retired banker and it’s always been my dream to be a pet sitter. I have some back issues so I would only be able to take care of small pets up to 20 pounds. Also I would prefer that the owner of the animal have a fenced in yard as I am not able to walk long distances.

Information Brenda R. would like to know about your pet

My preference is to sit with animals 25 pounds and under. I would need medical records and if there are any special needs such as giving meds, bathing etc.

I would start out the day by making sure I have all the information about each pet that would be in my care such as health of the pet, any food restrictions, vaccinations up to date, etc. I would also need the Vet information in case the animal needs care.

Brenda is amazing. She takes good care of my scout and he’s always happy when I pick him up. I’ve been booking with Brenda for over a year now and I’m so grateful she’s opened her heart and home to scout.

My dog wanted to stay when I came to get her! Brenda truly pours love into every pet she meets. I am so grateful for the peace of mind knowing that Betty is being cared for superbly!

Betty became fast friends with Brenda and her two dogs! It was immediately evident that Brenda truly loves animals and will treat your dog like one of her own. She sent lots of pics and updates so it was easy for me to enjoy my trip without worrying about how things were going. I’d highly recommend Brenda! Added bonus - large fenced-in front yard for the dogs to play!

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.
