Does your dog have any dietary or medical requirements I should be aware of? Are they potty trained? Are they leash trained? Is there any ongoing training I should be aware of so I don’t mess up their learning?

A typical day

I can play with your dog in pretty much whatever capacity they’d like/need, and take care of feeding them. I can also walk them around or let them outside to go to the bathroom for however long they need.

No dog too big or small for me!

Pet care experience

I’ve done on and off pet sitting for both cats and dogs since high school, but it wasn’t until I got my Great Dane Boolean that I really took care of a dog of my own, and he’s a lot of dog. I’ve got a real love of big dogs, but my first dog was a Pekingese, so really I love dogs of all sizes! I also have previous experience and training from Dogtopia as a Canine coach, so I can definitely handle more than one dog if you need me to.

We have been with Kathryn for almost a year! She is the absolute best sitter you could want. She communicates quickly and gives the most thorough updates on my dog. She provided enrichment and love to my dog Fern. We are so sad to be moving this month and leaving Kathryn, we can only hope to find as good of a sitter the next place we live.

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.
