Availability

Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Since I work from home full time, I’m here throughout the day — there’s no rushing home between meetings or squeezing in a walk during a lunch break. My schedule is flexible enough to accommodate morning drop-offs, mid-day walks, afternoon playtime, or whatever a pet needs that day. Having cared for my own dog for six years, daily pet care is just a normal part of my life — feeding, walks, medication, and check-ins are already built into my day. It’s less of an added responsibility and more of something I genuinely enjoy.

Information Kennedy L. would like to know about your pet

Please just let me know if your dog has any specific behaviors, needs, of if you have any special requests prior to care, walks and drop in visits.

A typical day

I’m happy to talk them on long or short walks, play with toys or balls if there’s space for fetch. Setting up or leaving enrichment toys is something I do for my own dog as well if he will be left alone for awhile, and am able to do that for your pets as well.

Dog lover & owner!

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a work-from-home pet lover with a flexible schedule, which means I’m available for mid-day walks, morning, or afternoon — whatever works best for you and your pup. I’ve had my own dog for six years, raising him from puppyhood, so I understand what it takes to care for a dog at every stage of life. He has health issues, and I’ve administered oral medication to him twice daily, so I’m completely comfortable and experienced with pets who have medical needs — no added stress for you there. Beyond my own dog, I’ve cared for friends’ and family members’ pets over the years and have been on Rover for several years. Most recently, I spent three years caring for a Bernedoodle who came to my home every day and stayed overnight regularly — so I have plenty of experience with both dog daycare and boarding in my own space. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. If your dog isn’t feeling their best, I’ll always communicate with you openly and handle it with care. Your pet is in good hands!

Kennedy is amazing! She helped out with my dog that is recovering from knee surgery. She was super responsive, sent lots of pictures and treated Remy like her own. Highly recommend her for all types of dog care!

Kennedy accepted a last minute request to watch our pup while we unpacked. She sent lots of updates and Cairo came home happy and tired!

Kennedy is a wonderful dog owner and cares so much about other pets! She’s a great communicator and likes to send pictures and updates to help owners feel comfortable when they are away from their pets. I would trust her to care for my pets because I know she would do everything she can to make sure they have lots of fun and are taken care of :) If you are looking for someone reliable and trustworthy to walk your dog or pet sit your furry friend, Kennedy is your gal!

Kennedy is one of the most responsible individuals I know. Her attention to punctuality and detail are especially useful in an industry such as pet care. Her love for dogs is undeniable and I completely trust her with any of our pets and their care!

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.
