A typical day

Dogs in my care enjoy a balance of indoor and outdoor play. They’re free to go in and out throughout the day, and I also provide daily walks (often 1–2 times per day). Puppies are taken outside regularly, every couple of hours or as needed for potty training.

Pet care experience

I have a large, fully fenced yard that’s perfect for playtime and fresh air! I share my home with two little cats who love to meet new dogs (but will mostly hide during their visit!). I don’t have a dog anymore of my own (she passed recently🌈) but I have plenty of toys, treats, and basic training experience with dogs having multiple of my own over the years. I’m comfortable reinforcing cues like sit, wait, leave it, lie down, and bring. I’m currently working from home and I have lots of spare time throughout the day to provide care, play, and companionship between meetings. Because I also have a toddler and infant at home, I can only accept calm and docile dogs who are good with kids. For safety with my kids, I can’t host pets with a history of aggression of any kind toward other dogs or people, excessive barking in the middle of the night, **extremely high energy (mostly, aggressive pushing / jumping), or dogs with a biting history. If any concerns ever arise, I’ll separate your dog right away and contact you immediately. I love sending photo updates throughout the day so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. I also have plenty of beds and toys, but if your pet has favorites, feel free to send them along! I also board cats. Since I have two cats of my own, I keep guest cats separated in their own large area to ensure an stress-free stay. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or for a meet and greet!

Kristina a bien pris soin de notre ti-Loup. Elle nous a envoyé des photos et était réactive à nos messages. Nous étions en confiance. Ti-Loup était clairement bien heureux!

Bella was relaxed and well exercise when I picked her up Cristina was wonderfully flexible about my pick up times and accommodated my needs that changed. This was my first experience with Rover and I’m very happy with it.

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.
