Pet care experience

Can we share best friends?

I want every animal in the world, but since that isn't possible, I can help you care for your pet while you confidently enjoy a vacation or time away, secretly fulfilling my animal fix. I've been caring for animals my whole life and love them all, adjusting care needs for each specific animal and their needs. I walk daily and would love to invite your furry friend along. Just need drop in cuddles and well checks? I love that too. Our furry friend is very high maintenance and I have learned how to make her day happy and very comfortable. Cats were my original true love, so our elderly cat is spoiled daily, and I'd love to spoil yours as well. We can sure see if my skills meet your needs.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Our current pets are strictly indoor friends, but we have had multiple animals that would go outdoor as well. I currently walk dogs outdoors and also care for animals inside as well. Each client has their own routine and I'm careful to follow that strictly. Between us we can work out the specifics.

Dawn took very good care of Cocoa and sent us lots of messages about how they were doing together.

Dawn is a true professional! I’m so glad we found her for our furry friend. She allowed me to have peace of mind while away and I would definitely recommend her services!!

Dawn was incredible with our kitties! We were nervous about leaving them since they can be a bit of a handful but she took such good care of them and made us feel totally comfortable while we were away. She was super communicative, always letting us know what was going on and made sure to send lots of pictures. We highly recommend her for anyone looking for a pet sitter!

Schedule

I am retired and ready to spend time with your pets. I keep my calendar updated regularly. My experience with my own pets shows that flexibility is important, and I feel very comfortable with varied schedules and needs.

Cats
Dawn can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Does your dog enjoy human interaction or prefer solo play, etc. I very much want to feed your animal's needs during my visit. Is your dog shy? Active? Sedentary? Healthy? Does your dog have any special needs? Is there a health concern I need to keep my eyes on? What treats can I share with your dog?
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.
