Let's discuss what you expect from me for the visits. I am open to outside play time or inside. I don't mind walking or in cases of special needs working with doggie strollers or other accommodations

Information Heather O. would like to know about your pet

It's important to know how your dog reacts to people or other dogs we may encounter on walks so I can plan ahead for any such encounters.

A typical day

I love to go on walks with your dog, play with toys or just give all the pets they want. I typically follow the cue of the dog and go with the flow.

I have a modified automated cat feeder and a few smart home setups that I was worried would be too intricate to explain to someone else, but Heather handled everything perfectly; she absolutely went above and beyond! She was very responsive and sent lots of updates and pictures while I was away. I'm planning another trip soon and will certainly book with her again!

Thanks, Heather! My first time using Rover, and first time having anyone not friend/family/neighbor care for my pup. I’m very grateful for what a great experience it was and how comfortable I felt. Super easy to with either and fast to respond. I’m so lucky I have someone I’ll go to and trust already for next time :)

Heather O. Did an amazing job! I came home to a happy pup. She made sure to update the app each time she was there, take pictures and even take him for walks. I will be inquiring again the next time I am out of town!

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.
