Safety, trust & environment

In a client’s home I follow the owner’s instructions. Being able to meet both client and pet prior to the visits is essential in order to provide optimal care. I need to know what to avoid in terms of triggers or habits so I can keep the pet safe.

Information Isabel P. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know what are the dog triggers so I can take better care of the dog. Safety is very important for me. Love big dogs but enjoy all dogs in general.

A typical day

I take them to parks, bike paths, dog parks so that they have an opportunity to meet other dogs if allowed and play, that way they can get some physical activity depending on their needs. Some dogs require no socializing and I enjoy walking them in nature.

Active caring dog lover

Pet care experience

Had a German Shepherd for 13 years that I'll never forget. I have 2 cats now and miss being with dogs. Really enjoy the outdoors and love walking, only a dog can make that better! When your dog is with me, I'll care for him/her as if it was mine! I've been working for another dog walking agency and really enjoy what I do. Dogs bring a lot of fun into my life and after a day of work I look forward to spending time with these wonderful creatures! Their unconditional love and happiness is contagious and I really appreciate that. Having walked so many dogs have taught me how to recognize and adapt to their behavior so we can have an optimal walk!

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.
