Safety, trust & environment

As mentioned, I’m adept at caring for nervous animals, so I use that framework with every animal, regardless of their personality/needs. It keeps them safe and happy!

Information Che Maria B. would like to know about your pet

I always love to know your pet’s energy level so I can provide the ideal amount of walk time/distance (I ran a marathon this year, I’ll run with your dog, too!). I also, of course, need to know their medical info, and medical needs, if any.

A typical day

A typical weekday of working from home includes a morning walk and breakfast with my dog, play time and treats throughout the day, step outside for some air every now and again. The evening brings another walk, some playtime before dinner, and some Netflix and cuddles.

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Che and I’m a New York City native who’s lived in Chicago for a little over two years. I have a rescue dog, HT, who I adopted 4 years ago, and we live on the south side of Chicago. In the past, I have cared for family dogs into their senior life. I love animals big and small, I would love to take care of your beloved ones! I am especially adept with caring for nervous rescues, seniors, and animals with special needs. I went through very rigorous training when I adopted my dog, and am skilled in adapting to a dog’s needs.

Che was awesome to work with! Our dog Billy had some anxiety being away from his family, but Che was great working with him to feel comfortable. She communicated promtly and gave us multiple daily updates, pictures, and videos, and provided a welcoming home for the week for Billy.

Che is the best!! Bruce gets so excited every time he goes over there to hang out. She’s super communicative and amazing with dogs. I’ll definitely be using her for a long time!

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.
