Kathy helped me again when my usual sitter cancelled last minute. Quick response, great communication and updates. Best of all a tired, happy pup at the end of it!

Kathy was great. My usual needed to cancel last minute so was pretty late request to Kathy. She made sure our dogs were comfortable with each other and checked in regularly. Have a very happy but tired pup back home now!

Kathy and Riggs are wonderful sitters! They took great care of my little mini-goldendoodle. Don't let Riggs size fool you, he's a sweetie!

Ms. Kathy is very nice and took good care of my 80 pound bernedoodle Roxy. He looked very happy playing in backyard with Riggs(Kathy's dog). I have received photos and updates how Roxy was doing. I would definitely look forward to booking again sometime in future.

Schedule

My schedule is very flexible, I’m retired, I have 1 dog so understand that fur babies need attention, feeding, medication and exercise! I rescued my last 3 dogs so I’m use to delicate situations and have been vetted by 2 different rescue sites.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced yard with 1large Doberman who has been through formal extensive training. Riggs is super sweet, plays nicely with other dogs, but has not been around cats. As always a meet and greet would be necessary to know if our animals are compatible

Pets

A typical day

I walk and train my dog daily. Everything has a learning/training opportunity that helps a dog learn, please or receive a reward. He also gets to run in my large backyard, or my large unfinished basement in the cold. We go to Home Depot or out to lunch. A socialized dog is a better dog!

Riggs is super sweet! Walks great on a leash, but will react to squirrels, he is a rescue and has some fears but has never growled or snapped at a person. He does think he is a lap dog!
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.
