Information James M. would like to know about your pet

Allergies are important to know about. Any special needs or medication administration needs to be written out for me to reference. Most toys you bring will likely not survive.

A typical day

Daily morning walks at the park nearby, followed by backyard play with pool. There are more than enough toys for us to throw and play tug-o-war! Chews and treats are available almost every day, diet depending. Plus, love and cuddles!

A+++ Dog sitter. I was worried at first because my dog can be a handful but he was loved and cared for. I got several photos and updates along the way which gave me great peace of mind. I will definitely be back. If you want to know your fur baby is in great hands, book here!

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.
