Let me know about your pet--what they're like, any quirks, likes, dislikes, certain signals that they give (like needing to go out), and how they like to have fun!

A typical day

I love to go on walks, check out all the smells; go to the dog park and make new friends; as well as play with toys and snuggle at home.

Elise was a wonderful caretaker for our small Russell Terrier and we could not have been more lucky. Our Pip felt at home and happy with her. Elise stayed in touch during our travels with updates, which we really enjoyed.

Elise was wonderful. This was our first time traveling and leaving our cat with a sitter. She always sent great pictures of the cat and spent plenty of time playing with her with good updates, which made me feel much better about traveling. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a pet sitter!

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.
