Pet care experience

Happy to spend time with your pet!

I’m a go-to pet sitter for friends with years of experience working as a kennel hand and dog walker at a local animal hospital. I grew up on a farm with parents who had pets around all the time, so I’ve been around pets the majority of my life.

Hays took care of my cat Winnie while I was out of town for a week. He fed her and changed her water every other day as requested. He took the time to play with her and give her attention, and sent me pictures with progress reports on how she was doing. He did a great job, and I felt comfortable trusting him with my cat's safety and well-being. I would definitely have Hays take care of her again, and I recommend him to anyone looking for a great pet-sitter.

I’m currently teaching music part-time and in the off season as a gigging musician, so I have a lot of weekday availability during both lunch and dinner hours. Wednesdays lunch only.

Let me know if your pet has any special needs specific to its breed, or if there is anything I can do to calm them in the presence of a new friend.
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.
