Safety, trust & environment

For drop-in visits, I am happy to play with your pet, work on obedience goals, give them lots of pets, or simply be a calming presence. Additionally, you will never have to worry about empty bowls or accidents in the house. For dog-walking, I ensure a safe walking environment for your pet and others, making sure to monitor signs of stress or aggression.

Information Cassi H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I should be aware of. It's helpful to know how they are when "strangers" come into their space or how they are with other animals (if going on walks).

A typical day

With animals, I love to work both their bodies and minds to make sure they get all of the engagement and attention they need! For walks, this is a mix of speedy strolls and stopping for sniffs to let them explore. In drop-in visits, I love to mix play time and time for puzzles, if they have any.

Pet care experience

I’ve owned and taken care of animals since I was a small child. I have experience with large dogs (130+ lbs), senior dogs/cats, and pets with health concerns. Having pets of my own, I understand the level of love and care required to look after animals.

Cassi has been cat sitting for me for a while now and has always been fabulous! She is communicative, shares great photos and notes, and my cats love her! Would highly recommend.

Cassi was amazing with my cat! She was super responsive and left detailed updates after each drop-in, which was reassuring for me because I was on a long trip overseas. My cat is shy around new people and can be anxious and territorial, but she absolutely loved Cassi. Could not have asked for a better cat sitter :)

This is the second time Cassi has watched my cats, and they already love her! She provides great updates and photos, which makes traveling so much easier and gives me real peace of mind. Highly recommend!

Cassi was amazing! She gave thorough updates while I was gone, and I could tell Miso was well taken care of. Will definitely love to book with her again.

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.
