Safety, trust & environment

I can and will follow any and all instructions, care specifications, etc for your pet. At home we have a large yard for our dog to play and run!

Information dory v. would like to know about your pet

Knowing the dogs typical energy levels, favorite toys and games, anything that scares or makes them nervous, medical issues, temperament around other animals and people, any allergies, what their typical routine looks like, etc.

A typical day

Mental stimulation games, such as “treat hide and seek”, playing fetch, plying “chase” around the yard, etc. for walks I prefer to stay in quieter, more scenic routes to keep the dogs stress levels down, as well as let them experience new sights and smells safely!

Pet care experience

I have had all sorts of animals my whole life- from ferrets,dogs, reptiles, ducks, cats, etc. There isn’t a critter I can’t care for! I have also volunteered at the Humane Society in the past to help care for the animals. I currently have 2 dogs ,4 cats, 2 cockatiel, a budgie, a bearded dragon, a chameleon, an axolotl, 2 jumping spiders, MANY ducks and chickens, and a rabbit! I’m an animal lover who would love to keep your pets (and you!) happy and healthy. I understand the importance of mental and physical stimulation for our furry friends. Any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out!

Became unresponsive after the first day. Had to find a new sitter last minute while being out of town.

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.
