Pet care experience
‼️ If you're new to Rover, you can save $20 dollars on your first booking using my code "HOPEA93128" even if you don't book with me. I’ve cared for my own dogs since they were 8 weeks old and have experience with many breeds and sizes—from Toy Poodles to Irish Wolfhounds. I love them all and proudly identify as a dogtrovert. Puppies welcome! My day-to-day includes: Walks, parks, play, sniffaris, snuggles, brushing, training, and enrichment. I’m also studying Herbalism & Nutrition for dogs and working toward my CPCN certification. Before any first booking, I always do a Meet & Greet so I can learn about your dog’s routines, preferences, and any special needs—like diet, medications, reactivity, or training goals. Their health and happiness are my top priorities. You can count on me for timely updates with photos and notes after every visit. I’ll always flag anything unusual (like loose stool or changes in behavior) so you can stay informed. I’m committed to reliable, responsive care and will follow your guidance for what your dog enjoys—whether that’s neighborhood walks, quiet playtime, or practicing skills in new environments. If it sounds like a good fit, please reach out 💙 I typically reply within an hour and am happy to answer any questions! I require a Meet and Greet with new clients prior to confirming our booking, which means I can't always accommodate new client requests on short notice. This is important to me because it's how I get all the information I need to help me keep your pets safe, healthy, and happy.

Reviews

Hope provided comforting care for my cat Frenchy.

Hope was amazing with our senior cat! She took time to get to know him and played with him during her visits. She was also able to give him his medication without issue. She was excellent with her communication and gave wonderful updates with pictures! We will be asking Hope to pet sit again in the near future.

I can't say enough about how wonderful Hope is with my fur-baby. Always lots of details and photos, and I really appreciate you working with him on my commands and reinforcing his training. It's such a great feeling to know he's in such good hands!

Hope was great. My first time using Rover and she made the experience smooth and easy. Appreciate the communication, the photos, and the care of my baby!
About Hope A.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety first - I pay close attention to environment - weather, terrain, other animals, etc. I like to clean food and water bowls every day or two [at most]. Also happy to do litter boxes daily or however often you like. For Drop Ins & Walks, if you leave out towels/wipes/mudbusters, I will wipe down paws and dirty muzzles after our adventures. For summer/winter, if your dog has shoes for walking, let me know! Mine does =) If you have any questions, please let me know and we'll sort out if I'm a good option for your pet's specific needs.
Information Hope A. would like to know about your pet
Meds/Vet details - Please ensure your vet info is in Rover for me in case of emergency. Doggos - Reactive behavior on leash [pulling, growling, barking, lunging at other dogs/people/prey]? Hiding/Fearful behaviors? Resource guarding [food or anything else they see as high value]? These are not deal breakers. I can work with them, but I need to understand if it's normal behavior for them or not. And work with you to find the best way to manage it while you're gone.
A typical day
It really depends on what your pet finds fun! Doggos: I try to find new trails for sniffaris and on leash exercise. I also love working on training with rewards, plus the mental exercise helps tire them out. Tell me their commands/hand signals and I can work on that with them. Enrichment puzzles/Frozen lick mats?? Happy to do that, just let me know what they like! 🐶 Kitty Cats: I go with their vibe. Will always see if play interests them, but the older cats I watch over tend to just want a warm lap to purr and shed in...or they just tolerate me sitting near them while they loaf in their box 😹
