Availability

I typically go into the office for a bit every Tuesday and Wednesday. However, it’s a very flexible schedule. I work for the University of Texas and live 10-15 min away from my full-time job. I work remotely most days of the week.

Information Chance W. would like to know about your pet

I like to know if the dog has any triggers. What typically makes the dog bark? What makes the dog most comfortable? Also, I like knowing if the dog sheds quite a bit.

A typical day

I live right by Bartholomew Park and Mueller Park is less than a mile away. I usually prefer Bartholomew Park for strolls because it’s less crowded. I’m very cautious with the heat. And always happy to do walks at night for a little healthy exercise before bed in cooler weather.

Pet care experience

Can I pet that dog? That’s my life motto. Dogs are better than humans and you know it. :) I’ve been a dog owner and caring for dogs ever since I was a kid. Pup friendly household. I’ve been dog sitting for over two decades. Please no bookings before 9am. As of October 2023, I have adopted a dachshund named Buddy. Always happy to do a meet-and-greet but any at-home boarding will have to be dogs that get along well with other dogs.

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.
