Pet care experience

Experienced and Dependable!

Jay and I are a brother-sister pet care team - We grew up with animals, and I worked my way through college as a vet assistant at a local animal hospital. I can't imagine life without animals! We currently have 4 dogs and 3 cats, and I am an avid equestrian. As a pet care team, one or both of us will always be available to meet your pet's needs - Jay has a 4x4 truck, so sketchy weather doesn't slow us down! Please be assured that your pet will be in experienced hands. We have cared for all kinds of pets - birds, fish, farm animals, reptiles (bearded dragons, turtles, lizards, etc.) as well as dogs and cats. We have a soft spot for older and/or special needs pets. We can administer oral, injectable, and transdermal medications.

Safety, trust & environment

It is very important that your pet feel safe and comfortable while you are away. Jay & I are both very safety conscious and trustworthy - we always "meet and greet" first time clients and pets before booking to make sure that we know exactly what your pet needs and what their lifestyle is like. This allows us to provide the best care possible. Both Jay & I really appreciate you taking the time to read this. We are looking forward to meeting you and your pet(s) very soon! We are happy to currently be able to offer first time clients a coupon code for $20 off their first visit :)

Julie and Jay have been our go to dog sitters for a few years now. They are reliable and detailed. They spend time in the yard with the dogs, love on them and take great pictures.

Julie and Jay were incredible with our cats! Even though one of our cats is super shy and skittish they got her to warm up to them. Always send loads of photos and responses quickly to any messages!

Schedule

In addition to drop in visits while you are away, consider us for dog walking as well! Often, new puppies and "teenage" dogs need an extra walk and potty break during the day while you may be at work. The opportunity to burn off some additional energy before you arrive home makes the evening smoother and less stressful for both you and your dog(s). We are very flexible and can accommodate most any schedule or time of day. Let's also give the kitties some love as well - most all cats love snuggles, companionship, and playtime too! Cats in general are more independent than dogs, but all the kitty lovers out there know that cats appreciate us more than they let on!

Good communication is essential to a smooth visit for your pet, and an enjoyable time away from home for you! You will always receive a Rover card for each visit or walk, along with pictures and a description of how much fun we are having! :) You will always be able to reach us at any time if you ever have any questions.
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.
