Information Maxine R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog is especially high-energy or needs extra attention in certain areas. Since I am a student and have a flexible schedule, I want to make sure I can give enough time to your dog.

A typical day

I understand that each dog is different and some need long walks, mental stimulation, or lots of cuddles. I live in Fulham and am surrounded by tons of parks and greenspace which is dog heaven.

Pet care experience

Originally from Canada, I've been living in London since September while completing my Master's at King's College London. At home, I currently have one dog (Wally), whom I miss every day, which inspired me to get back onto Rover after taking a few years off while I was working full-time. My family has had several rescue dogs over the years, and also fostered several dogs. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

Maxine was great - from the communication throughout to her availability and dog friendly nature. You can tell she loves dogs and understands the needs of a dog parent.

Was lovely to have Maxine taking care of our greyhound Ramon! She was quick to respond- sent us daily updates. Maxine was very responsible. I would highly recommend her. It was very reassuring having her take care of Ramon.

Maxine was able to take Titus last minute as our original sitter had to cancel. I appreciate her quick and professional response as well as her timely attendance to the meet up prior to the start of Titus' stay. She sent photos of Titus during his stay which was greatly appreciated and Titus came back a tired pup! I'd definitely recommend Maxine!

Maxine took care of my dog on multiple occasions and every time I’ve been extremely satisfied. She always sends pictures, stays updated, and has kept my dogs happy and healthy. She’s super sweet and friendly, can’t recommend her enough!!

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.
