My Experience~ I began dog-walking an adorable schnauzer for a local family getting busier while I was in high school, and then started providing overnight care in college. Since joining Rover, the owners who work with me recognize my caring personality, attentiveness to their pet, and love of fun. I have cared for elderly dogs, puppies, and cats, so please ask me about your little dude! I would love to meet a new friend. Dog Walking and Day Visits- My philosophy for walking or day visits is to be attentive, stay active, and have fun! As your Rover sitter, I will get to know your preferences and your dog's personality so that my visit fits seamlessly into your day-to-day. As a dog owner, I know the importance of your dog getting the appropriate exercise, so I will utilize toys, games, and exercise to make sure your pet feels good and stays healthy! For me, this also includes making sure there is fresh water/food, tons of affection, and giving you updates on your pet. House Sitting with Pets- I take great care to keep your place and pets in top care :) I will ensure they are well-loved, stay on schedule, and are given consistent attention so they don’t feel alone! If you have your pet on a feeding schedule, let me know so I can keep your pet's patterns up while you’re away.
