Pet care experience

I like pets more than people

Growing up on a small horse farm with animals ranging from pet rats to dogs, I have a vast array of experience and a huge love for all animals. I have been pet sitting for about 18 years and all of my friends and family use me as their go to pet sitter when they head out of town. I'm very confident when it comes to working with animals and most of all, I love what I do because I'm just a little bit obsessed with animals.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet runs the show! Whatever their needs or activity level, I will cater to that and modify my service based on each individual pets preferences/needs. Most of my clients say things like "my pet had the star treatment and my home was cleaner than it was when I left!" I put your pets needs first and prioritize maintaining your home in the way you do when you are there.

Dog Walking • Jun 25, 2022

This was my first experience using Rover & I couldn’t have asked for a better one! Mary was able to schedule a walk for my pup the day of & it made a real hectic, stressful day much more manageable. Will definitely reach out to her again!

It is important for me to know all the little details that go into serving your pet (no detail is too small)! This may include behavioral needs (ex: don't force the dog outside, open the door and walk away. They will go out when they are ready.), eating habits and routines, medication, grooming needs, how well they do with: walks, interaction with other dogs, people, cats, etc... as well as leashing/kennel needs and routines.
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.
