Pet care experience

I live to love animals.

I have been working with animals since I was a kid petsitting and taking animal classes. I became a kennel manager at a veterinarian's office in high school. Not too soon after I became a kennel technician at a pet boarding facility. After that, I was a Veterinarian's assistant. I have been able to learn about pets from multiple angles of the field and am very thankful for every opportunity that I got to love on, take care of, and even help animals over the rainbow bridge.

Safety, trust & environment

I always make it a point to leave the area I was in, cleaner than when I walked into it. I love to do cleaning on the last day of trips so that owners have a fresh space to come home to. I like to keep doors locked and a helicopter eye on your pet. No one but me comes in or out unless specified and agreed upon. I also have a brand new pet first aid kit just anything unexpected occurs.

Max was excellent with our stubborn Luna. He communicated well and made sure to send lots of pictures while we were away. 10/10 Would use him again!

Our 1st experience with pet sitting went well. Max even stayed an extra day, since I didn't understand the time frame for the booking.

Oakley can be a handful! But Max had no problem, looking forward to next week.

Max is great as always. He’s punctual and responsive during his care for Maggie. This is the first time we used dog sitting overnight with Max, and it went well.

Max has taken care of Maggie for quite a while now. I appreciate his responsiveness and updates on Rover’s card as they gave me peace of mind while I was away. He promptly let me know if any issues arose to ensure Maggie’s needs were met. He’s empathetic and took good care of Maggie.

Right now I am a full time online student so I have plenty of time to be where I’m needed! My course is also self-paced so if I need to miss days at a time I can always work it out!

I have worked with all types of pets ranging from blind and deaf dogs, to paralyzed bearded dragons. I like to know where they are taken to the vet, and any allergies or medical conditions/medications they have. I also like to know the temperament of the animal so I can gauge how to make them the most comfortable and relaxed while I'm in their space. It is also important to know the restrictions for your furbaby. If they try to jump fences or eat rocks, let me know so I can adequately protect them.
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.
