Highlights
Pet care experience
Fenced in Yard, Home Full Time
I am a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for dogs of all shapes and sizes and have been a sitter with rover for 7+ years. Whether it’s going on walks, playtime in the yard, or just some good cuddle time, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities and needs—from energetic pups to senior dogs who just want a cozy nap spot. I treat every dog like they’re my own, and I’m happy to keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. Your dog’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities. I can’t wait to meet your pup and provide them with the care and companionship they deserve!

Schedule
I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule, with the exception of my children’s school drop-off/pick-up and sports activities. This means I’m home the majority of the day and can let your pup out as needed, provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention! Your dog will be in a safe, loving environment with plenty of care and companionship.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pup’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can enjoy safe, supervised outdoor time. Inside the home, we’re very mindful about keeping doors securely closed and creating a calm, pet-friendly environment. If your dog is crate-trained or prefers the security of a crate while I’m away for short periods, I’m happy to accommodate that. Whether your pup loves to play or just wants a cozy spot to nap, they’ll feel right at home here—with plenty of love, attention, and care every step of the way.
Pets
A typical day
Your pup will have a blast while staying with us! We love going on walks, making trips to the dog park, and playing fetch for those who enjoy a little extra exercise. If your dog prefers a more relaxed pace, there’s always plenty of cuddle time, belly rubs, and quality one-on-one attention. My 9-year-old and 1-year-old also love joining in the fun—whether it’s tossing a ball, helping with treats, or just offering some extra love. I always tailor activities to each dog’s personality, making sure they feel happy, safe, and part of the family.
