Highlights
Pet care experience
Work from home!
Hi, I’m Dori! I’ve been caring for pets for years, starting with dogs (and even lizards!) for family and friends. About a year and a half ago, I began pet sitting professionally to bring more fun and time outside into my work-from-home routine. I truly love animals and also work full-time with a large dog and cat food brand. Recently, I joined Rover to open my home to even more dogs. I grew up on land surrounded by animals, always with three or more dogs at a time. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, blind dogs, and pets who need extra care, including diapering, medications, and special diets. I’m also comfortable handling high-energy dogs and those who tend to pull on the leash.

Ratings and reviews
Took great care of Aurora and was very flexible
My pups had a great time at Dori’s
So happy I found Dori and her family! They took amazing care of my dog for the week he stayed with them, and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that he was in good hands. I know that I will have a reliable family to take care of him in the future should I need it!
We just got back from a trip to Mexico, and left our 3 1/2 year old Yorkshire terrier, Bentley, with Dori and her adorable family! This was our first time to use Dori, and she was amazing! Sent us updates daily on Bentley along with pictures. He has adjusted back home with no issues from his stay. We would definitely use her again and highly recommend her!
I feel fortunate to have found Dori & her husband for the two weeks I was staying in Richardson. My Papillon & Pomeranian seemed to adjust remarkably well during their care! My Pomeranian would've acted more frantic when picking them up if he wasn't feeling comfortable there. I need to feel they're in a good place. Witnessing that they were also in a warm, loving, & wholesome family environment was special for me. This was only the second time I've used Rover & the first for a situation of more than a day & being out of town. The Rover app could use some fine tuning to handle such. Dori was accommodating to ensure everything was seamless. Thank you!
Thank you for looking after my sweet boy!

Schedule
I work from home full-time, so I’m available throughout the day for feedings, medications, potty breaks, outdoor time, and regular walks. On weekends, we may come and go a bit, but with our young Dalmatian at home, visiting dogs are never left alone for more than a few hours.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a fully fenced yard and a spacious, open floor plan that’s great for indoor play. I spend plenty of time outside with the dogs, supervising closely and keeping the yard clean. Inside, we run our robot vacuum several times and we use a baby gate at the front door for an extra layer of security—especially for escape artists. Dogs are fed separately or in shifts to prevent any food-related issues.
Pets
A typical day
My dogs typically get two shorter walks or one mile-long walk each day. We like to switch up routes or walk different sides of the street to keep things interesting. For boarded or daycare dogs, I always start with individual walks to see their leash manners before considering group walks.
