Pet care experience

I myself have a spunky 3 yr old border collie/shepherd mix. We have worked with a trainer to channel her high energy drive. Because of this, I have learned ways to overcome a lot of challenges dog owners face & how to build healthy bonds. With me, you wouldn’t be getting just a regular walk or play! We will learn cool things together & have so much fun while doing it 😎 In addition to my own current fur baby, I’ve owned two other pups as well as fostered back home in WI. I dog sit for friends, families, and neighbors. I treat your pups just as my own 🐶

Debra is great with our dog Margaux. She is also very communicative and reliable. We will definitely use her again.

Debra has dog sat for me twice and is always nice, professional, and on time. My dog loves her! She checks frequently and is attentive to any need.

Debra is a wonderful pet sitter who takes excellent care of our girl Bodi! She is very warm and friendly and was very reliable which Is what we needed most as I went into labor. Will definitely see her again soon.

I have had a lot of success with Rover and have never had to leave a negative review so this is a first for me. I have used Debra in the past for drop ins with my cat with no issue; she has been communicative, accommodating when I’ve needed to modify bookings and is on time for drop ins. This most recent visit however has left me disappointed. The issue arose when I noticed on my cat’s rover card that she made no mention of bathroom-related activities. One of the tasks I ask of sitters in the care instructions is to scoop her litter boxes. When I followed up with Debra over chat asking if she had scooped the litter she said she did. Something felt off to me so I went to look at footage from my disclosed Ring cameras (something Ive never done for the rovers I hire) and was disheartened to see that she did not scoop either of the litter boxes like she said had. Additionally, I saw that she spent a solid 15 minutes of the 30 minute drop in on her phone and not engaging with my very friendly, affectionate cat. Play and engagement is another task that I outline in the care instructions for sitters. I was incredibly disappointed to see this and as a result I have made the decision to cancel all future bookings with her and will no longer use her as a sitter.

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.
