Pet care experience

Your Pets New Best Friend!

As a 43 year old who has had pets for all my life, I have cared for all sizes and types of pets. I currently have a siberian husky Noki, but my previous dog Jax was diabetic so I have experience with glucose readings and insulin injections. I have also boarded dogs while family members go on vacation.

Safety, trust & environment

As a Marine Corps Veteran I bring a level of trust, reliability and dedication that your family can rely on for years to come. I don't have pets or animals, I have 4 legged family members who are treated and respected like anyone else living in my home! Whether your pets are coming to stay for a week at my house or you just need someone to walk and play with your dogs during a long workday, I will treat them as I do my own!

Joe was amazing! Took great care of my Loaf and Lola and spent a lot of time with them. Excellent communication. They also took care of something’s around the house that went awry.

Thanks again for taking care of Zeppie. It gives us great piece of mind that you care about him so much. The Rover cards are great to read and know all is well. You go out of your way to walk him on the road . Your pal Zeppie & His Owners

We have experience with senior dogs and special needs dogs. We can administer injectable, topical or oral medications as needed. During our initial meeting we will go over any special instructions that you have for your pet, and our goal is for you to leave that meeting feeling as comfortable and confident as possible. Regardless of your pet's needs they will be met with compassion and care.
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.
