I Will Treat Your Pet Like My Own

Hello! I have been an animal lover my whole life, and taking care of them since I got my first pet (cat) at age twelve. A few years ago I did house/pet sits while backpacking around England and Wales, taking care of homes, gardens, and pets in exchange for a free place to stay (with plenty of free time to see the sights). I currently have a part-time job and am looking to make some extra money on the side, as well as enjoy the serenity of change of scenery and animal companionship. I offer both drop-in and full-time house sits. I'm reliable, punctual, and follow instructions to the letter. I am also polite and considerate houseguest, very mindful of my surroundings and always keep my living space clean and tidy. If you're looking for a reliable house sitter who genuinely cares enjoys their work, shoot me a message. I look forward to hearing from you! Dana

Safety, trust & environment

Dana housesat our two dogs. She was great with the pets and conscientious with the house. Trustworthy, courteous, and communicative. I would recommend her to anyone who's looking for a no-drama, responsible person to watch their pets and house.

Besides a rundown of your pet's feeding/walking/medication schedule, I like to learn about their personality. Are they quiet? Energetic? Stubborn? What's their favorite toy? Anything you can tell me about your pet(s) habits and personality helps.
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.
