I work from home so I am the definition of flexible. I can regularly fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine as I do with my own pet. It also gives us more incentive to get up and out for walks and even a trip to Bark Social!

Pet care experience

I have been a dog lover (big and small) and owner since the day I was born. I began taking on responsibilities of our two family dogs at the age of 10 and now that I work from home, i’m responsible not only for my own dog, Riley, but often my family, friends’, and neighbor’s dogs, and even cats, when they need a sitter.

Jayla was super responsive and caring! Our animals enjoy spending time with her, and she takes wonderful care of them while we travel.

Jayla is awesome and has dealt with Zeeba as my puppy is going through some health issues. We will use her on repeat!

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.
