Information Krista J. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the size and the breed. I don't have breed preferences, but my own dog is a Golden Retriever x Labrador. I have a lot of experience with breeds similar to those.

A typical day

I like to take my own dog to the park and would be willing to do that with yours as well. I have my own vehicle.

This was a rebooking and our old gal got sick just before the scheduled booking. She followed every single direction we gave, and went above and beyond when there was a concern. Very trustworthy and responsible.

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.
