Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow their routines closely, including crate training, meds, or special needs care. Whether at home, on walks, or at the dog park, I create a calm, secure environment where pets feel safe, loved, and understood.

Mary did a great job taking care of our 10 ye old dachshund Millie, letting her sleep in bed, talking her for walks and to the dog park. Highly recommend her!

I have to say that Mary was a phenomenal sitter. For the first time I was actually able to go away without feeling nervous. She took amazing care of the dogs. Was very prompt and on time. Followed every instruction. She also sent me check in pictures. She was very loving and caring for my babies. I give her 5 plus stars and definitely would recommend her. I will be using her again in the future. Thank you for keeping my mind at ease.

When caring for a pet, it’s important to know their daily routine, diet, medical needs, allergies, behavior around other animals, favorite activities, and any fears or triggers. Understanding their personality, energy level, and training commands is also essential. Clear instructions on feeding times, medications, and emergency contacts help ensure the pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for in the owner’s absence.
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.
