Safety, trust & environment

I feed and medicate to your schedule and work at keeping schedules as routine as possible. I love to cuddle them, I'm always talking to them whatever I'm doing. I love my job and your babies get all the benefits of that!!

Information Lisa R. would like to know about your pet

It's good to know about certain quirks your cat/dog may have such as not liking their tail, paws or face touched. If he has bitten or nipped before. Does he guard his food? Does she guard her toys or her bed? Little things like that.

A typical day

I love to keep them as active as they are able to be physically and mentally. Fun activities include walks with intermittent work up to the dog's abilities. Fetch, tug of war, frisbee. Cats love lasers, fishing pole toys, batting. There are always fun things to do!

Pet care experience

Exp. Veterinary Asst and Full-Time Pet/House Sitter! I have experience working with many different temperaments of dogs over many years in both kennel and veterinary settings. Love love love animals!! Compassionate, educated, and fun-loving! Pets are like our own children! I knew since I was very young that working with animals was my calling and they will continue to be such a big part of my life! I will sit with them, play with them, feed/water them and exercise them all while insuring they are well cared for, loved and safe.

Lisa is trustworthy, a great communicator that doesn’t hesitate to ask questions regarding our girl or our home and made us feel at ease knowing we made an excellent pet sitter choice. We’ll definitely be booking again…thank you, Lisa!

Lisa did so great! Such a sweet care taker. So sweet with my pups and a great communicator. Left the house as good or better than she found it! Book her now. She’s amazing.

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.
