Chelsea has been my go-to sitter for a while and I fully trust her with my pets. Her place is great for my dog who loves to sit on the patio, and Chelsea is always great with accommodating between pickups and drop offs to make sure it’s convenient for everyone. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter in the area!

Chelsea was a cheerful and diligent cat sitter for our cat Hester. We got great updates and Chelsea was careful to follow all instructions. So glad to know her!

Chelsea was great, and I really appreciated all the pictures she sent me of my kitty while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking her for future trips!

Chelsea did a wonderful job of taking care of our cat. She was very responsive to any questions and concerns during the week and we came back to our cat and our home in great condition. Thanks Chelsea!

Schedule

During the summer (Mid June - August) I have full availability and extremely flexible scheduling. However, comes August 18th, when my summer ends and school starts again, my schedule will return to normal school hours where I will be a gone during the day from 7:00-4. However, rest assured your furbaby will always get a morning walk and an immediate mid-day walk, or trip to the dog park once I get home!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a 1-bedroom apartment in Spring Garden, with a private courtyard for easy bathroom access and some layouts in the summer sunshine :)

A typical day

I love talking walks along the river for both my enjoyment and theirs. I also enjoy, with your permission going to the dog park so he/she can interact with other dogs and run out some energy. My backyard has a private mini alley so playing fetch is also extremely accessible and getting some good runs/zooms out.

Any information that is pertinent to give your dog the best care is helpful and appreciated. Information such as allergies, tendencies, behavior traits, is always insightful and lets me get to know your dog better.
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.
