Availability

I am currently fully available outside of classes and would love to work things out around my class schedule! I can do drop in visits during the week morning and night and all day on weekends. I also am available for dog walking during the day on weekends and morning or nights on weekdays. Just to be aware I am in class from around 8-3:45 on Mondays and Tuesdays but I’m perfectly happy to come before class and then right after, as well as in the evening! Wednesday and Thursday I get out by 11 am, so I am available most of the day! Friday - Sunday I am completely flexible!

Information Hope J. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or quirks I should know about. I do not have a problem with it but it would be helpful to know ahead of time so I can be more prepared to give you and your dog the best experience I can.

A typical day

I have a golden who loves to be active. I am always outside playing frisbee with him or doing some training. He also loves the water so, we both enjoy going down to Yorktown Beach and walking around or going in the water.

Experienced College Student

Pet care experience

My name is Hope and I’m a college student at Riverside College of Health Sciences studying radiology and I love to be around animals of all types! I own a horse and have worked at barns feeding, cleaning, and more for almost my whole life. I also competed on the equestrian team at my previous college. I have had chickens, dogs, and cats while growing up that I took care of and looked after. I have experience with puppies, older dogs, big dogs, giving oral medicine, and basic training.

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.
