I have been a Rover sitter for over 2 years. When my sweet pup, Sadie, passed away I was so worried about my other pup (Maggie) being sad and alone. I started Rover to give Maggie a friend. Now that Maggie has crossed the rainbow bridge, I look forward to giving your dogs all the love and attention they desire while you are away. Puppy kisses and cuddles are filling the void in my heart and home. I have grown up with dogs my entire life. When I was 21, I bought my first home and rescued two dogs of my own. My friends and family have asked me to watch their dogs, cats, fish, rabbits, etc whenever they are away on vacation. I love starting and ending the day with a walk around the park and a Frosty Paws ice cream treat. There isn’t a section of my house that isn’t covered in dog hair, so I welcome all the shedding :) While I do have a nice sized yard for the pups to play, I spend each morning and each evening taking the dogs on a walk. Before my dog passed away, her favorite activity was her daily walks. It’s fun for the dogs to explore and I get my steps in: win win! I have a fenced-in yard with lots of room for the dogs to play. I also have a large area in my basement in which a dog could easily be in a crate if that is what you prefer. Dogs are allowed on my furniture.
