Information Courtney K. would like to know about your pet

I definitely would need to know if there’s any specific needs your dog or pet might have. I can administer medication if need be but I need specific instructions. Also if there’s any treats you’d like me to give them

A typical day

I love finding a dogs favorite toy or type of interaction and just giving it my all! Playing with the dog and maybe providing a treat if owner permits and has some available as well! I know dogs can be very social and some can want some time to be alone which is okay too!

Pet care experience

I used to work with dogs at a dog daycare when I was 19 and it really was the way I learned for my passions for animals. I really enjoy other animals as well as I’ve learned from my most recent endeavors with volunteering at a bird sanctuary in my home state and helping my grandmother raise and train her dog. I’m also no stranger to stepping in to care for cats and even pet rodents!

I appreciated her communication when I checked in throughout the booking but I was very disappointed to see that all three of our litter boxes at the end of a 13 day (2-visit a day) had not been cleaned since maybe the first few visits. We had left clear instructions for at least once a day and had trash cans/bags right next to each box with new bags for cleaning. I wish she would've communicated about any issues she was having. Thankfully, it seems she did give our babies attention and it seems feeding was fine for the entire booking.

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.
