Information Jin C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know your dogs personality! Would love to accommodate their needs - if they need more play time, medication, etc. I have extensive knowledge on dog commands and tricks, as our own dog did an unofficial dog agility course for 6 years. Also prefer dogs who don't mind other dogs and small children, as we have our own resident dog and 3 small toddlers running around.

A typical day

I usually take the dogs I watch on walks around the neighborhood in the early morning and/or in the evening. There will be sporadic play (tug of war, fetch, etc) throughout the day, with lots of cuddling and petting in between. I live by 2 local coffee shops within walking distance, so there will be the occasional coffee run with the doggos.

Pet care experience

My husband and I rescued our Shiba Mix dog back in 2013. We put him in a fun unofficial agility league for 6 years and trained him to have an extensive repertoire of tricks, including performing handstands. Over the span of 13 years I have dog sit numerous dogs for family and friends, as well as fostered a couple of young dogs, including a puppy.

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.
