Pet care experience

FULL TIME DOG LOVER

I've grown up caring for dogs my whole life. I work for Rover full time and absolutely love what I do. I've cared for all kinds of dogs from German Shepherds to Teacup Poodles. I will love your dog like they are family. I am reliable, trustworthy and loyal. I keep a very clean, dog friendly home with extra toys, beds and treats for my Rover guests. I live with my husband who is also a huge dog lover. We have a large fenced in yard (complete with a small doggy pool!) that has been sprayed with a pet friendly flea and tick repellent. All dogs are fed separately in their own space as well. Dogs are family and I care for them that way. Your best friend will be loved and pampered while in my care. I have open clear communication and send lots of updates and pictures. Thank you for considering me to watch your furry friend for you!

Schedule

I’ve been doing Rover full time for over 10 years now. I do regular bookings in the afternoon during the week for walks and drop-ins. Dogs are separated in their own puppy proofed areas while I’m doing these and I have doggy cameras on as well as calming dog music for them.

Pets

A typical day

I plan on customizing your dogs stay to what they like. Want to snuggle under blankets all day? Great! Want to run in the yard and chase balls for hours on end? Awesome! I want to make the dogs happy in any way I can. Their safety and happiness is my top priority. I prefer to do meet and greets prior to stays for peace of mind for my pup and my clients. I will follow your instructions regarding feeding, treats and do whatever I can to make them happy and comfortable. I also keep you updated a lot with text and pictures while your best friend is in my care.

I always want to know about any allergies or health issues. Also good to know any quirks or potential issues. Boarders will need to also show they are up to date with rabies and boardatella vaccines. I do have a zero aggression policy as well. I also like to get emergency contacts for all clients.
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.
