Pet care experience

Your dogs new favorite human! 🐾

I’m new to Rover, but not new to dogs! I grew up in a 5-dog household, so chaos, cuddles, and constant tail wags have always been normal for me. I’ve also been dog sitting for my grandma since I was about 12 (22 now) whenever she travels, helping with feeding, walks, and general care. Now I live on a ranch with 3 dogs, plus horses & other animals. I’ve spent my whole life around animals and feel very comfortable caring for dogs of all personalities and energy levels. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

When I’m watching pets at their home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable and at ease. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just hanging out, I keep them busy and happy while giving them some love and attention. I also take care to keep their space tidy and make sure everything is safe for the pets. My goal is to make them feel like they’re getting all the love and care they need while their owner is away.

Schedule

As a business owner with a flexible schedule, I have the ability to adjust my routine to accommodate pet care on my days off. I take Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday off, and I’m available after 3 PM on Saturdays sometimes earlier upon request. This gives me plenty of time to provide reliable care, whether it’s walks, playtime, or overnight stays. I prioritize ensuring pets receive the attention and care they need during my available hours.
