Pet care experience

Snuggles and Treats!

I've had at least one dog since I was 23, and currently, I have two that I absolutely adore. Lately, I've been searching for pet sitters and thought, "Why not do it myself?" I’d love to help others by providing trustworthy care for their four-legged friends when they can’t be there. For drop-ins I can come 3 times during the day everyday except Tuesday and Wednesday, I can only do 2 on those days.

Kate was an amazing sitter! She made the entire process seamless, providing regular updates and adorable pictures of our dog. I highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again!

My dog is normally fearful and took right to Kate. She’s wonderful!

Kate is wonderful, she took excellent care of our girl. Luna was very happy when we picked her up. She even ran back to give Kate some love before we left.

We were a little nervous about boarding our old, half-blind dog during our vacation, since it had been a very long time since he had needed to stay anywhere without his people. Thankfully, Kate was very reassuring and her home was a great environment for him. We enjoyed getting pictures of him while we were gone. Thank you so much for being so caring with him. I would not hesitate to recommend Kate!

Safety, trust & environment

If your dog gets along with mine, they’ll have free rein of the house. If not, they’ll stay in the kitchen when I can’t supervise them. My yard is secure since I have an escape artist of my own! :) I typically only take one dog at a time (or two if they're from the same family).

Pets

A typical day

At my house, it’s all about playtime, cuddles, and treats! If the weather’s nice, I’ll take your dog for a walk around the neighborhood. Plus, there are plenty of toys and cozy beds to choose from—whether dog bed or human bed, couch, and ottoman!

Has your dog ever shown aggression towards other animals? It’s important that your dog gets along with mine, so a meet-and-greet is required. Also, are their vaccinations and flea/tick treatments up to date? Please make sure to complete your Rover profile and include some pictures! I will consider last minute bookings but there will be an additional fee added to the booking.
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.
