Pet care experience

24/7 care in free roam home!

Hello! I’m Mae and I’m a huge animal lover! I used to travel weekly for work and would board my own dogs, I know how scary that can be, when you just want your babies to feel like they are at home or with their person. You don’t always know what’s going on throughout their day! I had the opportunity to get out of the corporate world and traveling every week to try something new, and I figured, why not do what I’m passionate about? I got my very first dog responsibilities for my own dog when I was 9 years old. Since then, I was hooked. While I worked crazy hours in a totally different field, I used my free time to volunteer at pet rescues, foster dogs, run adoption events. I became a foster failure pretty quickly and knew I’d end up adopting them all, so time to do something less risky for my wallet and my sanity and just focused on my two dogs for a few years. However, I missed having other ones around so I delved into Rover in 2019. I took a break when I moved to Houston and when the opportunity arose, I decided to pursue full time! I am home nearly 24/7 except when doing drop ins (or grocery shopping!). The dogs are entirely free roaming. I have a fenced in backyard with a pool for those who love to swim (that too, has a fence, and I am outside with the dogs at all times!) For dogs who prefer kennels, I do have kennels available for most sizes! I send regular video updates letting you know what your pup has been up to. I have lots of experience with elderly and medical needs dogs if needed. For drop ins and walks: Cats: I love cats, but cannot have them due to all of the dog traffic in the home. This is my chance to get some kitty time! I like birds and other animals too, but it’s not an option on this app! Haha Dogs: I have been really successful at getting dogs to trust me quickly, even without ever meeting them prior to the drop in. I’ll give you lots of updates on how they’re doing, eating, anything unique I may notice. I will generally perform a walk unless otherwise requested, feed, brush, play, dispense meds, whatever you/they need! Totally open to a meet and greet or taking on the pet as needed! Note: because my home is free roam, please discuss any big behavioral issues with me beforehand so I can be sure there’s as much notice as possible for anything I need to be aware of or determine if it’s the right fit. Thank you for considering me!

Mae has been wonderful with our Aussie doodle Lucy both times we’ve used her! We’ve gotten daily updates via videos and chatted her anytime we wanted an update or to confirm drop off and pick up. Lucy always comes home happy and tired from all the playtime! Mae is close to us and we will use her again for any future needs!

The pups are very comfortable with Mae and she’s very good at communicating and making sure they get plenty of attention! She’ll continue to be our first choice when needed!!

Mae was wonderful with our dogs. Great communication so we knew they were in good hands. We appreciate her patience with our new rescue and the ease of drop off/pick up. Highly recommend!

Mae is a super star. She looked after our little guy so well, we got photos and updates each visit. She brought in our mail and packages and was just generally fabulous. I wouldn't hesitate to rebook Mae next time we go away. Thanks so much!

Pets

A typical day

On a stay with me, your pup will have fun! I love to staying active with my pups, so your dog would be welcome to join me. Your pup will enjoy walks around my beautiful neighborhood, playtime in my backyard, and lots of snuggles! After a day of fun outside, we’ll retreat to my house for the night. We’ll play until we’re tired and then it’s time to snuggle up together and watch a movie before bed.

Before a stay I like to learn more about your dog and what I can do to facilitate a happy and safe stay for the both of us! Here are few things I like to ask: - Would you like to schedule a meet and greet? - How does your pup act around around other animals? - Does your dog have any medical issues I should know about? What about behavioral triggers or tendencies? - What is your pup’s daily routine or schedule? - What is the best way to spoil your pup? What are their favorite treats, toys, and games?
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.
