Information Jennifer R. would like to know about your pet

I prefer to watch dogs that are cat friendly but am willing to see how it goes. My cat loves attention from dogs but knows when it isn’t safe and will keep her distance.

A typical day

Most dogs loves running, chasing and sniffing around my large back yard. My younger dog is great at helping the more energetic dogs release some energy. We also love the play fetch!

Caring and fun home away from home

Pet care experience

I have many years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages. My home is set up perfectly to host everyone from couch potatoes to adventurers. The more energetic pups will love my large fenced in back yard, with plenty of squirrels to chase. Those that prefer to lounge enjoy naps in the sun on the sofa. I have two children ages 6 and 8. My kids will provide lots of play time but also know how to respect pups that aren't interested in playing. I have 2 dogs in the home ages 1 and 3. They love everyone and think everyone wants to play. We also have a cat in the home, she’s very dog friendly!

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.
