Adventure walks and cozy care

Pet care experience

I have been around animals my entire life—dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, hamsters, even rats. I have experience with big dogs, including German Shepherds, and I’m currently the proud dog mamma of a high energy, super-very friendly mixed breed. I respect every animal’s energy and comfort level, and precisely follow your instructions, checking in with you if necessary. When walking, your dog sets the pace. Sniffers get time to sniff, I keep pace with energetic dogs on a marching mission, and meander with dogs that appreciate a more leisurely pace of life. Every walk or drop-in comes with free snuggles. I am extremely reliable and will take excellent care of your pet and home.

Hilary is fantastic!! My German shepherd absolutely adores her. She is extremely courteous, very communicative, and clearly cares about dogs. I really appreciated how she first interacted with my dog to lay a good foundation for their future interactions. Highly recommend!!

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.
