Pet care experience

Let me love your pet ❤️

I'm a single mother and looking for some additional income and would love to take care of your pet. I live in the South Hill, Ithaca area, and have mornings and evenings available for taking care of your furry friend (s). I'm happy to walk/run (as much as I can) with your dog and spend time playing and grooming. I also am happy to care for cats, including litter boxes and grooming. I have been a pet owner my entire life and all my pets have always been an important part of my household, and my family. In addition my son is also an animal lover and I think it would be great for him to see another avenue of making money that his momma loves! Can't wait to hear from you!

Dawn was an incredibly thoughtful pet sitter! We felt very secure knowing that she was at home looking in on our babies. We have one very shy cat who sometimes hides and won't eat when strangers are around, but Dawn charmed her and was able to make sure that she was fed.

Dawn immediately ready and willing to help even when we had to book last minute! Our cats seemed very happy with her visits :) Would definitely book with her again!

Dawn took terrific care of our dog and cat while we were away. When we got back they were both relaxed and happy. I'd definitely work with Dawn again any time.

Dawn can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
During the meet and greet I will learn about your pets needs and routine. I also like to see the personality of your pets and how you interact with them, this helps with developing trust with the animals and keeping separation anxiety at a minimum. I also need to know any medical issues or medication that would need administered, and contact and or vet information in case of emergency.
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.
