Pets

Experienced pet sitter/walker!

Pet care experience

I have experience in dog sitting for 5+ years now in the triad area! I’ve worked with different pets and sizes (pups, cats, reptiles, bunnies etc). As your sitter, I’ll send regular updates via text (msg/picture) to assure you of their walk/stay! I currently work hybrid therefore my schedule is flexible for the most part. I also have 2 pets of my own (boxer/husky mix & daschund) so I understand how to balance care taking for my own and would do the same for yours! I have experience with house/pet sitting and accommodate to each person as needed. I want to provide the best care possible to assure you your pet is well taken care of!

Gemma was wonderful with caring for our fur baby! She loved on and truly took care of him where we had no worries while on vacation. Khalifa absolutely loved her during our meet and greet which led me to choosing Gemma to care for him. She’s a real sweetheart and we definitely will book her again, thank you so much Gemma!!

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.
