Pet care experience

Pets are family to me! <3

Being a lover of all things animals, I've spent many years caring for dogs, cats, tropical fish, chickens, ferrets, and more. I've owned a dog for most of my life and can't imagine a life without animals in it. I've dealt with mild-mannered to difficult pets and handle all with a patient, loving demeanor. One of my references will note that I took care of their temperamental cat with ease. They called me a cat whisperer, because the cat does not like many people but loved me. I've also cared for pets that need special attention such as injections and older animals with mobility issues. I am easy-going, responsible, and did I mention, I LOVE animals! Pets are family to me, and I treat them as such. I’m active and love long walks, play time and any other activity that helps your sweet fur-baby thrive! And with all things cute comes cleanup of course, and I like to keep a clean space for all. I’ll follow the pet parent’s lead to what works best for them and their loved ones.

Safety, trust & environment

I have years of house/pet sitting experience and the references to go with it! It makes me happy to watch over your beloved pets. I’m able to give references upon asking. I love and respect my pup so much, and I will treat your pet just the same. The world would be worse off if we didn’t have fuzzy buddies!

Jillian was on time to a very early day, gave great care and patience to our puppy, and was a joy to work with. We hope to have her back again! 💕💕

Hendrix loved Jillian, she went on many long walkies and sent updates regularly. I could tell he had a great time and was taken very good care of. :)

Took great care of our two dogs over Christmas as a last minute sitting request! Left our house in clean condition. Daily pictures and video updates.

I follow the pet parent’s lead as to what they deem best for their pet. Please let me know if your pet has special needs, temperaments, and/or reactivity. Extra help needed with senior dogs or special needs pets is best to know as well. Anything to keep the pet part of the family happy and healthy is welcomed information!
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.
