Highlights
Pet care experience
Disabled Veteran, bonds with pets
I have owned and cared for my own pets throughout my life and I have been fortunate to always have family who loved them to care for them when I traveled. When I retired from the military, a brother in arms requested that I transport his giant breed dog across the country to his family when he was deployed. My 4 day drive with that sweet girl showed me how important it is to have responsible pet care available and that is what I want to be for my community. Safely navigating over 2,500 miles with her may have been the most important mission of my career. My future adventures in pet care may not be as grand, but they will be as safe and as full of love for your pet. I am happy to walk dogs to the best of my ability, but there is a limit to the distance I can cover at one time. Beyond that, I will base our activities on owner guidance and the requests from the pet. From play time to chill time, we all know they tell us exactly what they want!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
As an owner of 3 cats, keeping my home clean is important to me, so I know how important it is to you. My cats also look for every opportunity to slip out the door, so I am well trained to monitor pets while entering and exiting your home.
Ratings and reviews
I have been a professional pet care provider for over 10 years, 2 on Rover. My husband, Dennis, grew up with animals in his home and always took part in their care, so he learned empathy for pets from a young age. He cares for our 3 cats and snake with diligence and that same empathy. His respect for others' homes and rules is unparalleled, in my experience. I could not recommend him more to oversee the safety of your home and pets while you're away!

Schedule
I am self employed and generally able to choose my own schedule. Please reach out and give me an idea of what your pet needs and we can make it work.
