Information Dena J. would like to know about your pet

I need to know the dog's temperament, where they sleep, and their schedules. I also need to have vet information along with having their medical records.

A typical day

I love to stimulate the dogs or cats, buy tossing toys, taking them for walks, or just giving them hugs. I make sure that the pet's environment is as secure as if they were with their family.

Pet care experience

I’ve been dog lover since birth, and a five star rated dog sitter for about 10 years. Professionally, I’m a remote working Freelance ArtDirector/Graphic Designer. Recently, I relocated from Chicago back to my hometown of Houston, Texas to be closer to my family. Though, I’m no longer offering services in my home, (since I’m residing with my parents), I can now bring my cuddles and belly rubs to you and your pups. My schedule is flexible, since, professionally I work where there’s a WiFi. - I offer semi pro photos - Light household duties (i.e. picking up mail and taking out trash).

Wow! Dena did the best job ever taking care of my pup while I was away for a long weekend. She walked and fed him at the exact right times every day which makes me so happy bc having the routine in place while I’m gone puts both myself and my dog at ease! My place was kept very clean and she even washed my sheets! So so happy that I booked her for my pup, esp since he is my baby and it’s always tough leaving him! Will 100% book again and highly recommend Dena!

Dena was AMAZING with my boys!! She sent pictures regularly and even accommodating my unexpected date change to be back and stayed with the boys an extra night! They love her. My doggie babies were happy with her and seemed as if I have never left. Definitely will book her 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.
