Safety, trust & environment

I'm happy to travel to the location your pet feels most comfortable, as well as providing pet taxi/transport. I do have a small fenced backyard, but I prefer not to board pets overnight in my own home. I am experienced and happy to pet/house sit during your work trip or vacation. I’m very neat and can ensure you'll return to a clean home.

Information Claire M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know what your pet's normal routine and expectations are, what specific commands they know, and if there are any special needs or medications I should know about. My goal is to keep things consistent for your pet in order to minimize any stress they might experience while you're away!

A typical day

I am confident in my ability to meet each animal where they are at and provide excellent care for them. I will carry out their normal routines and respect their owner's wishes/parenting styles.

Pet care experience

I have always had pets of my own, and began caring for other peoples' pets while I was in high school. I have taken care of all kinds of animals with a variety of needs. I strive to go above & beyond what is expected while caring for your beloved companions. My goal is to make them as comfortable and happy as possible when their people are away. When I commit to do something, I do it throughly & full heartedly.

Claire has a natural gift for being in tune with animals. She loves all dogs and cats and understands how to respond to their needs instinctively. Claire has the most calm and soothing spirit and would be a loving caregiver to any pet. She is also very active as a hiker, camper, bicyclist, and dancer. Walking dogs comes naturally to her and she has had multiple dogs in her life of all sizes and breeds. She has done pet-sitting since high school! She also has a cat as a beloved pet. Claire is responsible and dependable to the highest degree and is completely trustworthy. I highly recommend Claire to anyone who uses Rover!

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.
