Safety, trust & environment

I live in a house with a fenced in yard, so if your pup likes to hang out outside, there is space for that. I do not leave dogs out in the yard unsupervised, so if they are outside, that means I am too! Also my dog, Wren, ranges from friendly to ambivalent when it comes to other dogs. She is a 7 year old greyhound, so she will likely sniff them, and then go and lay down somewhere. :) But don't worry, even so, I would not leave an unfamiliar dog alone with another -- I will always be in the room with them.

Information Lisa K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any behaviors I need to watch out, fears, dietary restrictions, things they like and/or are comforted by and how they are around other dogs/people.

A typical day

I live close to a greenway, so we will go for walks along there. I live in a house with a fenced in yard, so I will let them out in the backyard occasionally. I will always go out there with them. I allow dogs on the couches, so while inside, they can find a dog bed or couch to relax on. I will happily give treats, but only with the owner's permission of course.

I'm a great walker, just ask my dog

Pet care experience

Hello from Del Ray! I currently have a 7 year old greyhound, named Wren. One of the reasons I live where I do is because I wanted her to have a fenced in yard to wander around, and a walkable neighborhood for her 3x a day walks. In terms of dog care experience, I grew up with greyhounds, German shepherds and labs. I know how nerve wracking it is to entrust the care of your pup to someone else, so I promise to treat them like my own and keep them safe and happy!

Very accommodating, follows directions perfectly, and most importantly makes our dogs feel loved and tired!

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.
