Pet care experience

Animals are my passion and career!

I have taken care of pets my whole life. I have walked dogs/ been a dog sitter on and off for the last ten years. I volunteer at the greater portland animal shelter, I help assist a dog training class there and am working towards becoming a certified dog trainer. That being said, I also love cats!! I am known as a crazy cat lady (in the best way), and will give all of your animals care and love.

Katie took great care of our pup when we were out of town. It was obvious during the meet and greet that she’s very knowledgeable with dog care, and the photos from her time with our dog show a very happy pet!

Any behaviors you are working on, or concerns you may have about your dogs behavior in public (i.e. should I let them meet dogs on leash? Would you prefer we not interact with other animals or people? Is your dog comfortable being approached by other dogs while on leash or off?)
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.
