Pets

Safety, trust & environment

have over 15 years of experience working with animals, and I currently own three well-trained XL dogs, so I’m well-versed in providing care for pets of all sizes and temperaments. In my home, I ensure a safe, clean, and enriching environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow each pet’s specific routines for feeding, exercise, and any special needs they may have. In a client’s home, I take extra care to respect their space and maintain the routines their pets are accustomed to. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playtime, or administering medications, I’m attentive to every detail to ensure the pets feel secure and cared for in their familiar surroundings.

Calvin did an excellent job caring for my 2 dogs while I was away for 6 days. I was not worried about them at all while I was gone. I will definitely ask Calvin to stay with Odin & Gwynnie again

Drop-In Visits • feb 06, 2025

Calvin joined our family about a month ago- my dog Charlie, as well as son Sidney, and I have all grown accustomed to and enthusiastically welcome Calvin's presence in our home. Charlie looks delighted every time Calvin comes over, and the pics he sends to me of he and Charlie playing brings a smile to my face knowing that even though I can't be there myself all of the time to play, I find comfort knowing that Charlie has grown to love Calvin in my absence. And...the fact that Calvin served in the US Army is an additional bonus, as I know he understands the importance of responsibility as well as accountability.

Schedule

Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule. I’m currently attending school part-time and am not working, which gives me a wide range of availability. This allows me to dedicate the time and attention necessary to ensure pets feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or any special needs, I can accommodate various schedules and stay consistent with a pet’s routine. My focus is on providing reliable and personalized care to meet both pets’ and their owners’ needs.

It’s important for me to know about your pet’s routines, behavior, health needs, and any special requirements. Please share their likes, dislikes, triggers, and how they interact with other animals or people. The more details you provide, the better I can ensure their comfort and care.
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.
