Pet care experience
I was referred to this website from my sister, who had an awesome time house sitting many dogs and few cats. My sister and I used to own a Labrador Retriever when we were little and we were beginners at training pets. We learned to train our puppy with a friend and got the experience in teaching the dog to properly sit, stay, lay, walk with the leash, and potty train. At first, training a dog was stressful because the puppy was still young and didn't follow rules easily. It took my sister and I a couple of days, weeks to train our puppy. In the end, the puppy began to learn to properly behave. Sadly, we only had the dog for two years and it was the only time I got pet care experience. Sometimes, I would help my sister when she was helping clients with dogs/cats house sitting. But in the future, I will want a dog again, but not sure which breed. Before getting a dog, I would like to meet different breeds and enjoy spending time with pets. I think rover.com is a good website to have fun, provide care for the pets, and gain more experience on taking care of dogs/cats. If interested in knowing more about me, don't hesitate to ask. I will be happy to answer questions or concerns. Thank you for your time and hope to hear back soon.
Reviews
Grace does an amazing job! I appreciate the photos and how well she cares for our dog.
Grace is wonderful to work with. She watched our 5 y/o sheltie last year, and then both him and our 1.5 y/o sheltie for one week this year. She came out for another meet and greet for our puppy. She was very communicative on our trip, sending pictures several times a day. Our house looks exactly as we left it. Our boys are very shy, but they did well with Grace and they are healthy and happy now that we are home. Thanks, Grace!
This is the second time we have used Grace to watch our pit-mix, Lola, and she was awesome! She made us feel super comfortable by sending lots of updates and photos daily, and she left our home spotless. We will definitely be contacting Grace again for future stays with Lola.
Grace took such good care with our corgi! She sent regular communications throughout her stay and I felt totally comfortable having her stay in our home.
