Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I grew up with dogs. I volunteered at humane society and cleaned cat cages in high school. As an adult I’ve cared for my own cats and dogs from babies to seniors. I’m the go to person for all my friends and coworkers. They trust me in their homes and know they’re babies are loved and cared for.

Came home from our long trip to a happy and healthy kitty. I’ve never used Rover before but Dawn was amazing and will be our go to for any future trips. She was always on schedule and had a consistent routine that gave our cat a sense of stability while we were away. Dawn took great care to make sure everything was taken care of with detailed report cards and pics after each visit. Would highly recommend! She’s awesome!

Dawn is a rockstar! We have used her many times now to watch our kitties and she is fabulous! She gives our older kitty Felix his insulin and fluids under the skin easily and is fabulous with all of his meds. She definitely has given us piece of mind while being out of town. Thank you again!!

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.
