Pet care experience

Sitter for your silly little ones

I have taken care of neighbors’, friends’, strangers’, and family members’ pets since I was 16 years old (10+ years). That role has continued as I am the friend/ neighbor who loves animals, but due to me moving often I am not settled down enough to introduce a furry friend into my life. I’ve watched a variety of animals, but mostly cats and dogs. The longest amount of care for any animal that I have provided has been 1 month for 2 cats and 2 dogs. Most of my jobs have been overnight care for dogs ranging from ages 6 months - 10 years and lasting about 1 week. Typical duties I have been responsible for having been feeding, walking, brushing & bathing dogs, cleaning litter boxes, and administering medications to both cats and dogs. My direction when taking care of pets is to always let any animal set the tone before I approach/interact with them. Of course, I always uphold all owners’ rules and directions; however, I think it is really important not to force yourself into any animals’ space.

Safety, trust & environment

One of my biggest values in life is privacy and I wish people to respect mine thus I will respect others. If you want me to watch your pet overnight I can either by check-ins or overnight stays. I know no matter if your best friend or brother is watching your pet there is some separation anxiety or concern with many pet owners. I always love to send photos or videos to ease stress and worries. If I observe something concerning, but not an emergency I will reach out to you, because you know your furry baby more than I do. I know every dog and cat are different so what may seem abnormal for one pet is normal to another. If there is an emergency I will contact you and their vet ASAP.

Jessica was incredibly helpful with Aspen while we were away for a wedding! We came home to a clean home and happy dog. Couldn’t recommend her more & will be booking with her again!

Jess was kind, sweet, and loving to Daisy. Daisy is a stubborn lady and Jess was patient with all of her set ways. I would definitely have her return to care for our 4th child.

Jessica was so great with Penny! Took her for long morning walks before I would get home from work so I could get some rest without worrying that Penny wouldn’t get enough morning exercise. Even worked on teaching her some new tricks!

If your dog and/or cat has any medications please let me know ahead of time (i.e. pills or inhalers). Also I love to know when it comes to dog walking if your dog has any triggers to certain ppl (ie children, old men, men, women, etc) or other dogs. Often times other dog walkers want their dog to interact with other dogs, but I know that it is not always best for every dog to sniff out each other on walks. I have walked dogs that can’t interact with anyone other than me on the walk and I have also walked dogs that are running for mayor of their neighborhood. Just communicate with me what they need in order to have a successful walk. Lastly for overnight care if your dog has any abnormal habits that I should be aware of please let me know!
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.
