Pet care experience

Caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. Since 2019, I’ve enjoyed helping families through Rover, making sure their pets are safe, happy, and loved while they’re away. One of my most rewarding experiences was with my dog, Zach, a sweet maltipoo who lived to 15.5 years. He needed oral medication multiple times a day, so I learned to balance routine and patience to keep him healthy and comfortable. I also help care for Frank, my parents’ big yellow lab, who has been full of energy and personality since he was a puppy in 2015. Long walks, playtime, and managing his bursts of excitement have taught me how to handle even the most energetic dogs. I look forward to meeting your pets and giving them the love and attention they deserve!

John was great! He watched our two big dogs at our house for 10 nights and took good care of them and the house. He sent timely updates to us, and fed and walked them according to their schedule. They seemed happy and relaxed with him when we returned. We hope to book with him again!

John took over last minute for us. He was very chill and the animals seemed to like him immediately. Our house was clean upon return and everyone was happy.

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.
