Safety, trust & environment

I understand our animals are apart of the family and it can be difficult to trust people to care for them. Any care instructions for your pet will be followed exactly as you please. I also believe it is important to listen to the animal, for example if a dog is refusing to walk anymore then we can just sit and watch squirrels together for a while. I won’t force an animal if it is not necessary.

Information Dominique M. would like to know about your pet

If your pet requires any special attention such as medication, recent surgical procedures, more frequent bathroom breaks, etc. please inform me ahead of time and I will be sure your pet gets the attention they need.

A typical day

Every pets activity level is different, I like to get to know the animal and their needs. For more active dogs we can go for a jog or play with toys outside. For the more relaxed dogs we can take a slow stroll and they can smell everything they want for as long as they want, as this is great for mental stimulation. It you provide other toys for mental stimulation such as lick mats, puzzle feeders, etc I can also use these too. I can also work on puppy training tricks if needed.

Thank you so much for always taking such good care of Chase on his walks. I will always rebook when you’re available.

Dominique was wonderful with Max. She took great care of him and was able to adapt to him. We will definitely be using Dominique again and would recommend her to friends!

Dominique has always been really good with both of my cats and has helped me care for them on multiple occasions. I have had her watch over them on multiple occasions when I have been away on vacation, and trust her completely with their care. She understands the differences between how each cat needs to take care of (feeding instructions, medical needs, how they like to play) and has always done an exceptional job. This experience, coupled with her years of veterinary related schooling, as well as extensive work experience with animals proves that she would be a perfect fit working with Rover.

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.
