Availability

I work full-time Monday to Friday, but my schedule is quite flexible and I can work from home or offsite as needed. My office is dog-friendly, so if your pup enjoys being around new people, they’re welcome to tag along! It’s a great space for dogs who love fetch — there’s plenty of room to play and stretch their legs. My husband also works a hybrid schedule, so we often coordinate to make sure someone’s always around when we’re dog sitting.

Safety, trust & environment

My husband and I rent a portion of a house in downtown Halifax with a deck and fully fenced backyard — perfect for some sunshine and fresh air! We also have a comfortable SUV, if travel is needed. Because we have a shared yard and entryway, we can only host dogs who are friendly and easygoing with both people and other dogs. Our home sits right along the downtown sidewalk with big front windows, so we’re best suited for pups who are comfortable in a busier environment and whose barking can be managed. As lifelong dog lovers, we’ll make sure your pet feels right at home!

Information Claire Q. would like to know about your pet

Any details you can share about your dog are always helpful, but medical and behavioural information are essential. It’s important to me that your dog — and everyone around them — stays safe and comfortable. I also like to know their routine and preferences so I can make sure I’m fully able to meet their needs and your expectations.

A typical day

I’m an active person who loves spending time outdoors, whether that’s walking to the park, going for a hike, or enjoying a summer swim (weather permitting!). I’m adaptable to each dog’s energy level and needs — whether they’re eager for adventure or prefer a slower, more relaxed pace, I’m happy to meet them where they’re most comfortable.

Playful & attentive dog sitter

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and have been caring for friends’ and neighbours’ pets for as long as I can remember. During university, I fostered several rescue dogs and gained experience with a wide range of breeds and personalities. I’ve been on Rover for about a year and a half now and absolutely love it — it’s such a joy getting to know so many wonderful dogs and their owners.

Claire was awesome with Kody! She allowed him time and space to settle in and get comfy. From drop off to pick up, communication throughout was timely and reassuring. I am a new user of the Rover platform and app. Claire was very helpful with prompting me to have successful experience. 5 stars🌟

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.
