Pet care experience

As dog lovers, my family and I have raised 3 dogs as family pets. Aside from my own personal pets, I have taken care of pets for friends and neighbors as well. Prior to me changing my major to hospitality, I was studying animal science because of my love for animals! During my first few semesters, I worked at both a ranch and small animal clinic to gain more experience working with animals. Additionally, I used to foster dogs and puppies for a local animal shelter when I was in college. I have lots of experience in taking care of animals and would love to meet your pets :)

Grace was amazing. She communicated every day and took care of our cats like they were her own fur babies. It was my first time hiring a cat sitter and she made sure I felt safe. My cats warmed up to her pretty fast considering they’re super shy. Next time I need someone to check on my cats again, Grace will be my first choice for sure.

Grace was super helpful when I needed last minute drop in visits in Woodson’s Reserve. I would book with her again.

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.
