Pet care experience

I am a Marine Corps Veteran. During my time in I always lived with friends that had dogs and cats. I bonded with every single one of them. It wasn’t until I got out recently that I finally chose my fur baby (to be honest, he chose me ☺️). I rescued him last year, and we have watched watch tv together every single night since. His name is Banana Boat. Aside from my own baby, I absolutely love dogs and cats. All shapes, and sizes, I love them all.

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.
