I'm currently working an on call job while in college. This is my last semester so I have much more free time on my hands. I do try to plan my weeks in advance but i do understand life happens. I’m always more than happy to take last minute bookings, but i require meet and greets for new clients.

Safety, trust & environment

If I'm taking care of a dog, then I will be taking him on walks and potty breaks every 2-3 hours, and if they're puppies, every 1-2 hours. I live in a house so I would say it's pretty spacious for any animal up to a large dog. Your dogs will be leashed when they go on walks. As for cats, I have a cat myself. So I will be starting off slow to introducing them, keeping them in separate rooms and going from there.

Information Maliya L. would like to know about your pet

Just let me know if your dog has separation anxiety, needs special attention, is on meds, etc so that I can accommodate their needs as well as make their time enjoyable!

A typical day

I am a very active person and if your dog is high energy as well, I’m the sitter for you. If i can and if there is enough time I always try to take them out for a walk or dog park if your neighborhood has one. I always interact with the animals under my care as much as I can during the visit. If I run out of time, I always recommend the hour long walks/ visits.

Pet care experience

I live in a very pet friendly home and I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for 14 years. I have a puppy right now, his name is Koa. I would treat your dog like they are part of my own family. I work part time in retail and go to school during the fall and spring. I will be able to take the dogs out for walks several times a day since I work early in the morning and I am off early also. I live with my family and we all love animals and will treat your fur babies like they are our own family.

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.
