Safety, trust & environment

If I was watching your cat, dog, or other pet, we would play with toys, I would feed and clean up after your pet, and also provide lots of love and snuggles! I would want to know what kind of activities your pet prefers so that I can keep them safe, healthy and happy. I am good with shy/timid pets. I can also administer medications, and I am happy to care for young or senior pets.

Information Dawn L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pets have any special needs or behaviors that I can adapt to. I like to keep their litter and feeding area clean, I promise it will be cleaner than when you left! I will send lots of pictures of me snuggling and playing with your pet.

A typical day

For my dog, I like to play with toys, play fetch, and I walk and run with him. We socialize him with lots of other dogs and people. He is snuggly and he gets a lot of lap time.

Dawn did an amazing job taken care of our two cats. After two weeks away, they look happy and healthy. She went above and beyond to ensure they were safe.

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.
