Information Karen F. would like to know about your pet

If there is anything that I would need to know about your fur baby I would definitely appreciate it. The more informed i am the better care i can give to your best friend

Daily walks are definitely a must and walking at the park would be most ideal. I would love to play fetch or catch with your fur baby and also chill on the couch watching tv

Pet care experience

Dear dog parents, I'm a big dog lover and I'll assure you I'll love and care for your dog as if it was my own! I'm well educated about dog care as I took some animal classes in high school and a vet assistant course . I have taken care of my own fur baby for 11 years before she passed, she was the cutest feisty chihuahua. I see dogs as a blessing and they truly are angels that become such a wonderful part of our lives. I know and understand how important your fur babies are to you so Im very dedicated to providing the best care possible for them. Sincerely Your friendly dog walker/sitter

Thank you so much for taking care of Miles! I appreciated the photos and updates, and we were so glad he was able to be in a home instead of a kennel during our trip. Thank you again!!

Karen was excellent! She sent us updates and photos throughout Teddys stay. Teddy was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend her and will definitely book again.

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.
