Pet care experience

Expert Pet Care at Your Doorstep!

I am a Physician Assistant and a lifelong pet owner with extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats. I currently have one dog and one cat and understand the importance of routine, comfort, and attentive care. I offer reliable services including dog walking, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. My background as a Physician Assistant gives me strong attention to detail, responsibility, and the ability to notice changes in behavior or health. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable in their own homes by following established routines and providing consistent, compassionate care. You can trust that your pet will be safe, well cared for, and treated like family.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in their own homes, I prioritize maintaining their familiar environment to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. My approach involves adhering to your established routines, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special care instructions you provide. Whether it's taking your dog for a walk, handling potty breaks, or simply providing companionship, I focus on delivering consistent, personalized care that meets your pet’s individual needs. By being attentive and responsive to their behavior and preferences, I strive to create a stress-free experience for both your pet and you.

I like to know about feeding schedules, potty routines, energy level, leash behavior, medications, allergies, anxiety triggers, and how your pet interacts with people, pets, and new environments.
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.
