I am a dog-lover and cat lover with years of experience - I have owned 4 of my own dogs and 2 of my own cats over the years. I have been doing Rover for ~5 years and have multiple references for my experience as a dog and cat sitter/walker. I currently have a small, super shy but friendly dog named Olive. She is a ten lb terrier, and has gotten along perfectly with 10+ Rover dogs I've had stay with me to-date! As I currently work as a freelance consultant, I always work from home and have time during the day to care for your dog! My husband lives with me and so dogs we sit often get double the walks. We are both runners and love running with dogs who are higher-energy. We have a large, fenced in back yard!
