Pet care experience

Cat lady who loves dogs

I have 1 dog and 3 cats. I have personally owned rabbits, guinea pigs, parakeets, gecko, snakes, fish and jumping spiders. I am most comfortable with dogs who are 70 lbs and smaller. I have fostered kittens and feral mama cats for the Humane Society. I have successfully socialized dozens of kittens for their furrever homes. I do require a meet and greet for all new clients before booking. Please let me know what day and time works best for you so we can schedule. Constant care will double my rates.

I will do my best to keep the same schedule and habits that you communicate for as little disruption as possible. Dogs will be kept on a leash outside. Cats will be kept indoors.

LeDawn did a very good job of keeping Alex happy in our absence. I would recommend her service to anyone. She kept us well informed of what was happening all day. I will use her again in the near future. Fran

LaDawn has housesat and done drop-ins for our 2 dogs & random cats (LOL)! Her communication is outstanding, and she leaves everything in order. She's great with the animals, and they seem genuinely happy when she visits. Will continue to book when she's available!

LaDawn is always so great with my high energy pup. Gives me great updates and is timely. She even helped with administering her meds for me this time.

Carmen loves LaDawn! She’s excellent with the dog and I’m so happy to have her take care of Carmen.

Please let me know if your pet is likely to escape and how to avoid that. Is your dog reactive to other dogs or bothered by certain types of people? Has your pet had any medical emergency and what is the likelihood of it happening again? What can I do to help your pet feel more comfortable in your abscence?
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.
