Your Pets New Best Friend

Hi! I’m a free-spirited, animal lover who adores meeting the personalities of every pet I meet. I grew up with dogs, pet sitting for many families, and have two cats of my own—they’ve taught me patience, intuition, and how to love in twenty different languages. I’m caring, empathetic, and creative. I adore animal snuggles, slow blinks, tail wags, and the tiny quirks that make your pet who they are. As a student with breaks in my day, I float in and out of campus life—leaving plenty of time for drop-ins, playtime, and meaningful moments with your fur baby. And if you love photos, I’ve got you. I can’t help myself, they’re too cute! I want your pets to be cared for the way I want mine to be cared for 💕🐈🐶

We LOVE Denae! This is our second time booking her and she was great! There were some flight issues and changes in our schedule that she was very helpful with, and even helped us get back into the house after I realized I'd forgotten to leave keys out for my partner! The animals adore her, even the shy ones. She's my go-to sitter forever!

She was so sweet! Easy to communicate with, took all my concerns about having a sitter very seriously and helped me feel good about leaving my buddies with her, and the buddies LOVED her! My cats are usually really antisocial, but they came out and cuddled her, and my dog was happy too.

Denae has watched our pets many times and is one of the few people we trust to leave our reactive dog with. Our dogs love her. She is also the best and most devoted cat mom to her own two cats.

I would need to know of any behavioral issues, fears, quirks, preferences, dietary needs or medications. Anything that would help me give your pet the best care.
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.
