Pet care experience

As a (life long!) dog owner, when I leave town I don't like putting my Rosie in a kennel or with too many random dogs, and I want to know she's with someone who I can trust without hesitation (plus I love photo updates); this is the security that I will provide you with. My Pet Sitting Style: I will treat your dog(s) like my own and create a comfortable, safe and fun environment for them. I've cared for dogs of all sizes, ages & breeds and have been dog sitting + dog walking for over fifteen years. References are always available upon request if you'd like to directly speak with any of my prior clients. FAQs (But feel free to message and ask me any questions you may still have and I will respond promptly); Your dog(s) will have personalized care and attention with extra love, playtime and exercise. I just finished an ultra marathon so if you have a larger dog who needs a lot of activity, I promise that I can keep up. I can guarantee that your dog will get plenty of exercise if needed including 3 walks per day and I never leave dogs alone for more than 3-4 hours max, if at all. I am a professional and take this job seriously too. I enjoy the companionship of a dog so I am happy to take your pup around with me on errands and outings if that is your style, too. Safety always comes first and your dog is the priority when he/she is with me. I will uphold the same schedule, rules, practices, etc., as you do with your furry friend so that it's a seamless, comfortable, safe and healthy transition for both the pup(s) and you upon your return! Essentially, I'm just filling in for you and keepings things "business as usual" for the pup(s) with some extra love since they'll be missing you. I've taken care of a few special needs dogs including a Lab with diabetes who needed insulin injections and close blood sugar monitoring (for over five years!), and several dogs who were territorial around other dogs so I know the drill when it comes to individualizing pet care depending upon the unique needs of the animal! I will respond to you within 60 min at all times while I have your pet(s) if and when you reach out, and check in with you often if you'd like. If I have any questions related to the pet care, I will never hesitate to ask you.

Grace was the sweetest and most wonderful person I could have hoped for to look after my boy during the holidays. I explained that I feel a lot better when I receive frequent photos and she went above and beyond, and I’m so grateful. Wish everyone was like this. It makes it a way easier experience for those of us with separation anxiety :) Thank you Grace.

Grace is SO sweet and clearly loves our furry family members!!! She took time to send us updates and pictures to let us know things were going well- can’t say enough about how grateful we were not to be worried about our first time using Rover. Thanks, Grace!!!!

We were visiting New Orleans for the weekend and didn't want to leave the dogs alone at our airbnb while we were out and about, so we were delighted to find Grace through Rover.com. They had play time, a couple of walks in the local park, and spent their down time relaxing next to her on the couch. She has a mellow, ten year old dog who was a great companion for them during the day. Thanks to Grace, our dogs had a great vacation as well! If our travels bring us back to New Orleans, we will definitely leave our dogs with her again!

Grace is by FAR the best dog sitter Moose has ever had! She is so genuine with her clients and is very flexible with pick up and drop off, which is great for people with late jobs. She sent lots of pictures and kept Moose a happy pup!!

I work remotely so have a flexible schedule that allows for plenty of time for morning, afternoon and evening walks. I like to let dogs out for potty breaks every 3 hours.
