Information Clare S. would like to know about your pet

Before working with a dog, it is important for me to know whether or not they’re good with other dogs, if they have any special health needs, and if anything triggers them.

A typical day

I love taking dogs by the river and around parks! If your dog is up for a longer walk, I’d enjoy keeping them out and sniffing for as long as they want (and as long as you’re comfortable with). I love running and hiking and, you’re up for it, I am more than happy to have your pup join.

Clare was amazing! She went above and beyond for my dog, and will be my go-to any time I'm in town!

Clare was available to walk my dog on short notice while I was in town for a family wedding. After meeting her, I felt very comfortable and was able to relax and enjoy the event knowing my dog was in good hands.

I've known Clare for almost 3 years, and I don't know any one else who is more caring, hardworking, and qualified to take care of dogs. We are raising a puppy together, and she does such a wonderful job with him. On top of that, her philosophy with taking care of dogs is so thoughtful and intentional, I swear dogs can tell and instantly feel safe with her.

Clare took great care of my pup! She was very communicative and sent plenty of pictures showing Ellie having a fun time. Thanks Clare!

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.
