★I love getting printed care info and instructions! Putting the info in a message or here in your pet's Rover profile works too, but paper is my favorite ★Need to know Approximate meal times and how much food. Approximate out times. Any injuries, allergies, limitations, fears or quirks. Words and names you use to call your pup, and commands they understand E.g. "Walter comes to Wally or Smally. He understands Go to Bed, Outside, Drop it, and we're working on Off for jumping on strangers" Also Wifi password, time zone you're in, what time you expect to be back, and anything that is broken or off-limits as far as appliances. ★Nice to know: Habits, tricks, treats, toys. If you don't have a yard, length of time and route suggestions for walks (and if your dog is particular about pooping- their fave spot for that!) No worries tho. If I have questions while you're gone, I will ask. And likewise please message me any time there's something you forgot to tell me or anything else that comes up. I'll be in touch daily, or as you prefer. MORE ABOUT HOUSE-SITTING I will sleep at your home, in the bed of your choice. I will want to use your kitchen, wifi, and maybe laundry if I'm there more than a few days. I won't have guests over. I might shower there, or at home. I won't open doors, closets, drawers, desks beyond what might be reasonably expected, such as where I might find kitchen/cleaning/pet supplies. I respect privacy and expect the same so I will unplug or turn around your indoor cameras including pet-cams while I'm there. Please disclose them when we meet so it's not awkward. :) EVEN MORE RANDOM INFO ★If your home needs keys for entry I will only come get them once. Ok honestly probably twice, I'm not that strict lol but if we keep working together please get a lockbox. Ideally with **two** sets of keys. One set for me to use while you're gone and one spare set in the box just in case something happens to me or the keys I'm holding. ★I should mention that I usually get around on two wheels, even in winter. I have a license but I'm car-free! ★I won't cancel on you after bookings are confirmed. I book on a first come, first served basis. My regulars know I won't cancel on them, or for them. ★Fwiw I do have outside clients as well but admin and payment is much smoother through Rover. To me that's worth the 20% cut they take from my posted rate. Please don't ask me to go off-app! ★I'm soo grateful for all wonderful folks and their fur-families I've met since joining Rover in 2018. I can't believe it's been so long. I truly love doing this and feel so lucky!! ★The Star Sitter designation, in case you're curious (and in my defense?), is new since fall 2023. There's a metric I don't meet which is a certain ratio of requests to bookings. People newer to the platform surpass me given that they may get fewer requests than I do and/or book most of them. Whatever. I'm still taking new clients whenever I can!

I base my engagement on what you've told me as well as your pet's body language and behavior. Dogs I'm sitting for get a minimum of 30 mins of walking and/or playing per day, unless they won't or can't.
