Please let me know ahead of time if you live in an apartment complex with gates! Additionally please let me know if your dog likes other dogs, if you let people pet them, and if they are used to kids!

A typical day

I am more towards the dog leading the walk, and going at their pace! Usually they will have an area they prefer to walk and am happy to take them there :)

I’ve cared for and had big dogs since I was 7 and understand dog behavior well. I’ve trained all of my dogs since I was little and have been a neighborhood sitter. I love all dogs but big dogs will always have a special place in my heart!

Bridget was amazing! We booked her for two walks for a day. She came to our meet-and-greet and Gina reacted very well to her. On the day of the walks, Bridget sent us updates and pictures and I felt that Gina was in good hands. Thank you so much Bridget! We'll book you again :)

I highly recommend Bridget to care for your pets! Bridget will provide safe, loving care for your pets and great customer service. Bridget grew up caring for pets and her love of animals shows in all her actions. Bridget is one of the hardest working people I know, consistently receiving praise and promotions from employers. You and your pets will be happy you chose Bridget to care for them!

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.
