Pet care experience

Hi there! 🐾 I'm a devoted animal enthusiast with over a decade of ownership and care experience. My journey includes working in shelters, caring for dogs at a pet resort, and raising guide dog puppies. I share my home and heart with Neville, my 10-year-old border collie mix. Let me bring joy to your furry friend through walks and dedicated care with a wealth of experience and love! 🐶

Elissa dropped by to let our doggies out while we were on the river today. We greatly appreciated her dropping in to support us. Very friendly & communicative!

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.
