Pet care experience

Experienced and Compassionate

Dogs have always held a special place in my heart, and with 7 years of dog-sitting and pet-care experience, I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and quirks. I approach every pup with patience, empathy, and genuine affection, treating them with the same care and attention I’d want for my own pets. My experience ranges from everyday companionship and pet sitting to working with large, strong, high-energy, and less-trained dogs. I’ve shadowed an experienced professional dog trainer, gaining hands-on experience with managing energetic dogs who may need extra patience, structure, and attention during walks. I’m also comfortable and physically capable when working with larger breeds. For seven months, I regularly cared for a client’s two large pit bulls, giving me valuable experience confidently managing multiple strong dogs while keeping their safety, comfort, and happiness at the center of everything I do. Whether your dog is a high-energy adventurer, a gentle giant, or a professional couch cuddler, I’ll take the time to understand what makes them feel comfortable and cared for. I know how much trust it takes to place your pet in someone else’s hands, and my goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your dog gets plenty of attention, affection, and dependable care. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family member and become one of their new favorite people! 🐶❤️

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I will make sure your pet doesn't get into anything they shouldn't. I'll respect yours, and your pets, home - cleaning up any and all messes created by your pet, and leaving no trace of my visit (other than a happy pet). I'll ensure I know about their habits and favorite toys before I work for you.

It was a pleasure to meet & greet. Cora & my doggie Fiona hit it off immediately & she's very attentive to any special needs your best buddy may have. She's great.

I have known Cora Smith since she was about 7 years old. She has always always been someone who adored animals. Both of the cats that became beloved household pets were chosen by Cora - and she helped care for them often. I honestly can’t think of a better person to join Rover than Cora. She had only gotten more responsible for taking care of pets for others. She is very good at helping pets learning to be calm and responsive to caregivers needs. She would be a wonderful addition to the Rover team She is very patient & doesn’t get easily frustrated with problematic pet behavior.
