Pet care experience

Let me love your pet!

My family and I raised my first dog from a puppy. All the dogs (and cats) who followed were rescues. Most were seniors that we cared for till they passed away. I’ve also owned parakeets, and taught them to talk!

Dixie did a great job taking care of Stella. She sent me pictures throughout the day. I highly recommend Dixie

Dixie was outstanding! Teagan took to her right away; and from the photos she sent me, Teagan was very happy! In fact, I think she was a little mopey after Dixie left. Certainly appreciated that the house was in spit spot order when we returned. Would definitely use her again!

What a great couple. Dixie went above and beyond taking care of our dog and parrot. Highly recommend.

We absolutely love having Dixie and her husband care for our two King Cavaliers. We leave going on our trips knowing that our dogs are well taken care of. It gives us peace of mind and we feel confident in knowing our dogs are in good hands while we are away. Many thanks for the care and love they give our sweet pups while we are away on our travels.

Dixie and Norwood did a wonderful job taking care of Booker and my home. I would definitely use them again. Booker says…Thank you!

Dixie and Norwood are amazing. Not only are my spoiled dogs happy but I think they left the house cleaner than they found it.

Schedule

Our current lifestyle makes it difficult to have pets of our own, and we miss them! If you’re looking for someone to love on your pup, kitty, or bird, I’d love to help out. Please note that **Birds will be charged the same rate as cats.**. You will need to enter your bird as a cat. Caring for chickens must be arranged outside of Rover, as Rover is for pets only.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Dixie can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I have had several German Short-haired Pointers that were about 50 pounds, and am comfortable with walking high-energy dogs up to about 55 pounds. I have had dogs, cats, parakeets, and even a pet squirrel that we rescued, then released.
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.
