Extra mile to make your pup smile!

Pet care experience

If it's your first time using Rover, use the code GWENB90248 for $20 off your first booking!! I understand that each dog has his/her own needs that deserve to be met, and we love our pets as members of our family. It is of utmost importance to me that your dog is in safe, capable hands, which is why I focus on understanding each dog I meet and communicating openly about your dog and his/her unique personality. I first joined Rover in October of 2020 to have the opportunity to meet more people in my community and their pups! Since then, I have worked with a dozen clients in my hometown of Santa Rosa, providing dog walks and staying with their dogs overnight. I also worked as an overnight sitter at K9 Activity Club every week, where I looked after anywhere from 5-12 pups! My goal is to keep you confident your pup is in good hands, which is why I send photo updates during our stay and keep you updated with texts throughout my visit. You can rest assured knowing they will be tired out and happy when you return! I have had the opportunity to get to know some pups very well by giving them weekly walks. Through this process, I've also gotten to know my clients. I've had the privilege of working with two of my clients during their weddings, which are some of my most treasured memories since joining Rover. I highly value my relationships with my clients, and working on Rover has allowed me to meet many wonderful people and their pups! Whether your dog loves playing fetch, chewing toys, or just snuggling, affection and fun are essential parts of working with pets. I will focus on your dog's individual needs as a good boy or girl and focus on making them feel happy and safe while you are away. I am a recent graduate from Occidental College with a bachelor’s in Critical Theory and Social Justice. I can't wait to meet your dogs and work with you to create a positive and fun experience for your pets while you are away!

Gwen was very patient and sweet with my Lucy. A plus was Gwen is a great communicator. I hope she can walk Lucy again.
