Information Kim S. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting a dog, I would like to know what his/her favorite things are, what their dislikes are, temperament, do they have separation anxiety and any problems I should be aware of.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks I have a lovely neighborhood for dog walking and a nice park area that is also nice to take walks in. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Where does your dog usually sleep? I can accommodate to most dogs preferences. If you have a crate for your dog, it would be best to bring it, and put in special items he loves. Time I'll spend with your dog If at my house, most of the day, evening and night.

Pet care experience

Are you looking for someone who you can trust? Who will love and care for your dog like you do? Then we should talk. I have a large house and fenced yard and a family who LOVES dogs. I also have a 1 year old Husky/Boxer mix who loves and plays well with other dogs. I can offer your dog a loving, fun, patient, kind and caring environment to stay in so you can enjoy your time away without worry. Will keep you updated on how your pet is doing (by email or text) and send pictures by email if you wish.

Kim was incredible! Our mini schnauzer is 2 1/2 yrs old and has never been away from us. We were definitely concerned but from the time we dropped him off and picked him up we knew he was in good hands. Kim immediately put our mind at ease and kept in touch with updates and photos. We definitely recommend Kim and will use her again.

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.
