Information Claire W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog takes any medication and if there are any special needs I need to be aware of while watching them.

A typical day

I’m good with active dogs as well and will make sure they get plenty of exercise. I’ll walk with dogs, play in the yard with toys, and can even run with them if that’s their thing! I also give lots of pets and enjoy just sitting with them as well and making sure they are comfortable and not anxious while in my care.

Pet care experience

Hello! I’m an experienced caretaker and have pet sat for family, friends, and neighbors for 5 years and many happy Rover clients for almost 2 years! I can stay for a week to take care of pets, as well as midday drop ins for walks and potty breaks. I’m willing to come anytime you may need my help! I have a passion for animals and love getting to know all of their different personalities.

Claire was great! She was able to walk Chico and feed him on a short notice and provided wonderful pictures of him as well. She even stayed a little longer and hung out with him giving him pets. Will absolutely reach out to her in the future.

Claire watched my high energy reactive dog for a weekend and she was amazing! She sent me multiple pictures every day and kept me up to date on how he was doing! He warmed up to her right away and I already have her booked for another weekend this summer!

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.
