Safety, trust & environment

I can provide exercise and loving attention at the appropriate activity level for your dog. I am experienced caring for animals that require medication and can provide gentle care for those dogs fragile due to age or health issues. Since my beloved Lex passed, I have been able to provide overnight care in your home. The extended time together is a terrific bonding experience allowing me to discover what each dog most enjoys for play and relax time. Sorry, no homes with cats due to allergy. 🙁

Information Denise S. would like to know about your pet

I like to know anything your dog is sensitive to, such as loud noises, bikes, or cars. Does your dog like people, other dogs and small children? Does your dog know basic commands? What is your pets normal routine!

A typical day

We can walk the neighborhood mixing sniffing and good pace to keep the pups interest. Alternatively, the local parks provide great sniffing and people watching opportunities. For dogs who aren’t interested in long walks, hide the treat is a favorite game.

Pet care experience

I have had loving dog companions all my life. Puppies to senior dogs, lively and slowed by age, I love them all. The best walk is any walk with a dog!

Denise was a pleasure for me and my dog. I needed walking weekly walks over the summer for my dog Sal. Accommodating, understanding, and professional. 10/10 would recommend!

Denise was fantastic while we were away. She asked all the right questions before we left and checked in daily with photos while we were gone! Our dogs were well taken care of and our home was in great shape upon our return. We will definitely be using Denise again!

Denise deserves every one of her 5 stars. Highly recommend for her experience handling our pup who is shy getting to know her and now cannot stop wagging his tail for walks with her. Our life is a bit chaotic with kids and other life events but she communicates super well through Rover so we know what to expect and when. We’re glad we found her!

Denise took great care of my pup Willow while my entire family was out of town for an event. Got some updates throughout the day and she was able to make Willow comfortable, despite being very anxious when I left for the trip.

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.
