Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in front yard and easy access to a huge field across from me allowing me to ensure your pets' safety while also being able to provide them space for exercise/fun. I have no toxic plants in my home and I do not have another pet in the same house.

Information Lisha A. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special requirements or needs. No thing is too small or too large, I just like to be prepared.

A typical day

I try to take pets on at least 3 long walks through the day and then play with them in the home to help expens energy. As I've learned more about mental stimulation and enrichment for dogs I try to incorporate that into my stays as well

Pet care experience

I've grown up with dogs my whole life, from a pomeranian to a golden labrador to a beagle, all with different personalities, energy levels and needs. My husband and I recently adopted our dog Tiffin (11 months) and have been having a fun, challenging and adventurous time getting to know each other. I have plenty experience with friend's dogs, from walking, pet sitting and just generally hanging out with them. I have seen my own dogs through senior years as well and know it requires a special level of attention and care. I am happy to provide services like administering medication, slow walks etc. For higher energy dogs I'm also available to provide basic training, enrichment activities, longer exercise as well.

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.
