Safety, trust & environment

I live in a one-bedroom apartment and I don’t own a crate, because I don’t have a dog of my own. There is about 600 sq ft for your pup to play, and they will get frequent walks around the neighborhood. I also live very close to parks/dog parks.

Information Claire V. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there’s any special considerations I should be aware of with your pup! I’m always up for a challenge as long as me and your dog are both safe!

A typical day

My pet buddy would start their day with snuggles and pets, followed by a morning walk, maybe some ball in the park, and then return home for food. We could then just hang out between walks until their next meal or if it’s time for them to go home!

The best care for your best boo

Pet care experience

I have a TON of experience caring for senior dogs, anxious dogs, dogs who pull, dogs who bark when there’s a squirrel on the TV. I have been a trusted dog-sitter and dog-walker of friends, neighbors, and family for years. The only thing I should warn you about is that your dog may love me so much they don’t want to come home!

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.
