Pet care experience

Flexible schedule, lot of experienc

My friends with dogs call me the "super nanny to the rescue!" when it comes to pet or baby sittings. I grew up with dogs my whole life. Pet sitting fulfills the void of having a pooch of my own. I'm very responsible, reliable and caring. I also worked with children for many years. :) I just love the unconditional love that dogs (and kids) are able to give us. The look on a doggies face after you come back home from a long day, it's just priceless. They're always so happy to see you and that makes everything better. :) Before the pandemic, I was sitting part time/ whenever my work schedule allowed but after being laid off in 2020, I've been doing it full time and loving every minute of it! I've gotten the chance to take care of some the cutest pets (let's not leave kitties out of it 😊) and met some great owners, some who actually became dear friends of mine. 🥰 My schedule right now is fully open and devoted to dog sitting and walking!

Denise stayed at our house with our two pups. She communicated well and treated our home and pups with care.

While the cat was fed while we were out of town, I am extremely uncomfortable because there were several violations of privacy, including food being left in the oven, and things being disturbed in a room that was left closed. We have been very flexible, but that isn’t acceptable for what is supposed to be a drop in service. It is a violation of privacy.

Schedule

In all honesty, my schedule revolves around "my" dogs. Since I've taken dog sitting as a full time profession, I organize my days around the pet's I'm taking care of. 💕

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Denise can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I just usually ask how they are with other pets or if they are on any medication. Also, if the dogs are allowed on furniture and friendly with other dogs and/or people.
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.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
