Information Laura D. would like to know about your pet

To ensure the most comfortable and safe stay for your pet, I would like to know the following about your pet: - daily routine - potty habits - if your pet has allergies or takes medication - if your pet gets along with people and other animals - if you pet is food aggressive or has separation anxiety - if your pet is sensitive to loud noises like storms or blenders - if your pet is up to date on vaccinations and flea/tick prevention

Will spoil your dog with love!

Pet care experience

I have had dogs since childhood and love being around these sweet animals. I've been dog sitting for over 15 years for neighbors, family, and friends. I enjoy taking walks, playing, and loving on your dog. Your pet will be spoiled with lots of love and attention. I'm comfortable with all sizes of dogs. I have always owned medium to large breeds. I currently have a sweet shetland sheepdog. We also have a calico cat that is calm and will keep her distance around new dogs. If your dog is not used to cats I will keep my cat in another part of the house so that they will not interact. I have a large fenced in backyard for running and playing. Your pet will be treated like my own. I will make sure your dog has a fun and safe stay! You will receive pictures and updates, so you stay up to date and know how they are doing. Please let me know if you have any questions.

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.
