Information CJ I. 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! - Must be on Vet Prescribed Flea Meds/up to date on shots - Please bring your dog reasonably clean as they are allowed on my furniture - I love all dogs… ❤️ but I cannot host markers, excessive barkers or aggressive breeds

A typical day

I love to make your dogs feel comfortable/at home and enjoy going on tons of walks around the neighborhood. I also have a car to transport them if needed (my dog happens to love the car!). I have tons of dog toys in my apt to stimulate along with healthy treats, bones, etc.

Grew up with dogs my whole life! ☺️

Pet care experience

Huge dog lover 😍! I grew up with six dogs at home when I was little and my parents are both huge animal lovers. I’ve had my own dog Bentley since I was a senior in college and I’ve taken care of several dogs for friends, neighbors, coworkers, etc.

CJ was the best sitter for Benji! She’s very communicative and sent frequent updates throughout the day. She’s also so kind and I could tell right away he’d be in great hands!

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.
