It all started on the farm

Pet care experience

As a lifelong animal lover with a deep passion for caring for pets, I bring a wealth of experience and genuine affection to my role as a pet sitter and dog walker. Growing up on a farm, I had the joy of being surrounded by animals of all kinds, and I even trained them for shows. This hands-on experience taught me the importance of patience, trust, and understanding when working with animals. As an adult, I’ve always had a family of cats and dogs who are cherished members of my household. I truly enjoy extending that love and care to other animals, ensuring their needs are met with kindness and attention. Walking dogs is one of my favorite ways to spend my time—it combines fresh air, exercise, and the joy of being outdoors under the sun with my furry companions. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or energetic playtime, I aim to make every visit a positive, enriching experience for the animals I care for. Your pets will be treated as if they were my own, with plenty of affection, fun, and attention to their unique needs.

They were very accommodating! One of our dogs was going through some medical issues and they were great about giving him his meds, cleaned his vomit and replaced his belly bands. Definitely will be using them again for any pet sitting needs

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.
