I also have 8+ years of hands-on experience caring for my own special needs Great Dane, giving me a deep understanding of large breeds and pets with unique requirements.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I am strictly just walking dogs at the moment. But my dog is treated like family and that’s the same way I would treat your dog. I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment with plenty of attention, and affection. I’m attentive to pet’s needs, whether that’s exercise, or extra cuddle time, or maybe a break for water. I follow any specific instructions from owners, and ensure pets feel secure and loved while they’re with me.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cynthia was wonderful! We booked her at the last minute, and she was incredibly accommodating and responsive. She took great care of Chewie, gave him a nice walk, and kept us updated with photos and messages. Really appreciate her flexibility and kindness, and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!

Words cannot describe how grateful I am for Cindy. My family and I planned a trip for our wedding and vacation to Philippines for 3 weeks and it turned out more expensive which we ran out of a budget for a cat sitter. Not only did Cindy work with our budget, she went above and beyond watching over our cat during the 3 weeks - daily photo updates, picked up our mail, and even cleaned my dishes we and didn’t have time to do before we left. I am so appreciative and anyone that gets to book Cindy before she gets popular is truly blessed 🥹 100/10

Cindy is the absolute best! She is a Great Dane mom for starters. She is trustworthy and you can count on her with your dog! She dog sat my golden retriever overnight while we were on vacation and he had the best time. Also Cindy came to the recuse when my golden had just had surgery and I was a work and he was really sick, Cindy went over to my house and took my dog to the vet for me to make sure he was ok. She goes above and beyond for her dog as well as others! Plus she is really into fitness and loves dog walks! Highly recommended!

Schedule

As a work from home teacher, my schedule becomes much more flexible during the summer, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time and energy to pet care. I love incorporating it into my routine; it’s a rewarding way to stay active, spend time with animals, and provide dependable, thoughtful care when pet owners need it most.

I always want to provide the best care possible, so please let me know about any special needs, medical conditions, behavioral quirks, or fears your pet might have. It’s also helpful to know any training cues they know, and how they interact with other animals. The more details you share, the better I can make sure your pet feels comfortable and happy!
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.
