I have owned and fostered many dogs throughout my life. I also worked at a pet store for several years and volunteered at a shelter in college. Additionally, I was an equestrian and trained horses. I truly love animals and I have a vast range of experiences with many different sizes, ages, breeds, and temperaments. I can assure you that I am well equipped to take great care of your best friend! When they are in my care, I vow to treat them as my own and take their needs seriously. I am very patient, dedicated and understanding. Since becoming a Rover sitter, my experience has evolved tremendously. I now specialize as a care taker for special needs dogs with IVDD pre and post surgery. This requires administering medicine, bladder expression, proper paraplegic mobility techniques, and intense rehabilitation. That being said, I am extremely committed to helping in whatever ways possible, which could also just mean giving your pup lots of love and cuddles! My fiancé is very helpful and we work as a team to care for the dogs. He is very experienced due to his family running a foster program and housing many dogs of different breeds, ages and behaviors. Since we work from home, your pet has constant supervision with us. We only host 1-3 dogs at most at one time so they have a specialized experience. We have grown to love and adore our regulars and consider them family! Now that I’ve been with Rover for quite some time, I can’t imagine my life without them. They bring me so much joy and happiness.
