Currently between jobs and am a full time online college student. So I am pretty flexible!! If something doesn’t work i’ll just make that clear but I do not have many scheduled things in my day to day.

Safety, trust & environment

I don’t mind doing feeding, walking, play time! Also don’t mind light clean up if they make a mess while you are gone. My dogs are kind of crazy so I understand messes happen! My dogs have an open back yard but if your dog is trained to walk I will be happy to take them out that way. My dogs get plenty of play time mainly with each other but i’ve done plenty of play time with them myself and can incorporate that with you dogs if they require play time! I also have dealt with older and sick dogs so I know how to be gentle and handle that. I have also had my own cat and watched others, I adore cats. Mine was sick for a while so i’m familiar with oral medication for cats and soothing cats’ anxieties as mine suffered heavily from unknown anxiety.

Information Elliot M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any and all details about your pet(s)!! I want to know how much they eat or drink, how often they need to go out etc. I also would like to know their favorite toy, ways to calm them, if they like walking or running around better.

A typical day

I love playing fetch and tug-a-war with dogs. I also love walking so walks are always fun!! If your dog likes parks i’d be happy to take them there as well. If you prefer enrichment toys i’d be happy to do those. If your cat likes to play with toys i’d love to play with them or just give them some lovin’ if that’s preferred!!

Absolutely amazing! Took such great care of my animals and truly loved on them! One of the few I am leaving a review for and exceeded my expectations in terms of previous rover sitters.
