Need a sitter that stands out?

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Gwendolyn, and I wanna watch your dog! I have experience working at multiple veterinary hospitals as a kennel technician and at a pet shop as an animal care technician. My job duties as a kennel technician and as an animal care technician were to make sure the dogs were fed, bathed, walked, and played with to ensure they stayed happy and healthy. I also have 5 years of experience volunteering at a no-kill shelter where I had the great opportunity to find over 300 dogs a forever home! I would go in every morning and just spend time with each dog for hours giving them lots of love and attention. Because I spent so much time with each dog every day, people would come in and I was able to gather information about what kind of dog they were looking for and match them with the perfect pup! Through my many experiences I have learned how to train dogs, correct bad behaviors, and identify common illnesses as well as administer oral medication. I genuinely love being around dogs and I have had several of my own growing up. I’ve also had experience with other animals as well from the very small to the very tall! Some of these other animals include birds, cats, lizards, rodents, frogs, and other exotic pets. I also have experience with big dogs like Great Danes and Rottweilers, medium dogs like Labradors and Golden Retrievers, and small dogs like Chihuahuas and Pugs Please don't hesitate to contact me if you think I would be a good fit for your pets!

Gwen was wonderful! We were so glad to have her watch our little 'Nixie' while we were away on vacation. Loved the photos she sent too!

Gwen was on time for the meet and greet, which is important for me. Very attentive to the instructions and truly seemed to love dogs. We are happy we picked Gwen to sit for us. The house looked perfect when we returned. Thank you

Gwen did an awesome job, I could tell when I returned home that my dog was happy and he had a good time while I was away...not always the case with him! When I came home my house looked exactly the same as it did when I left. I would definitely book Gwen again to sit for my dog in my home.

This was the first time I used Rover.com. Gwendolyn C. was just what we needed to take care of our dog when we went on a family activity. He liked her immediately at the meet and greet. She sent us updates and photos of our pup. She was prompt and caring. We will use her again.

Safety, trust & environment

How I care for pets depends on each individual pet and what type of service you’re looking to book. I have been working with animals basically my whole life. It is one of my life’s greatest passions so you can expect that your pet will get a high level of care when I’m with them. I will discuss their individual needs and care during a meet and greet so if you’re interested in booking with me please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Information Gwendolyn C. would like to know about your pet

Does anything make them anxious? Do they pull on the leash? Are they dog aggressive while on walks? Are they up to date on shots and flea/tick prevention? Do they have any special needs? What are their favorite toys? I want your dog to be as safe and comfortable as can be.

A typical day

I can match any dogs energy and I have a lot of love to give so if playtime, attention, and walks sound like the best thing ever to your dogs then I'm the person you want.

Availability

I work full time but my schedule is flexible so I can usually move around my work schedule for drop in visits and walks. For dog sitting I will be gone most of the day doing drop ins and walks or working and come back in the evening to play with and take care of your pup. I am not a good fit for any pet parents looking for a sitter for a covid puppy who's never been left alone before unless you are willing to pay my hourly rate for 24/7 care. If you are looking for 24/7 care please ask me about my rates.
