Information Melissa G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any special needs for your dog. I want to be sure you pup stays happy and healthy in my care.

A typical day

I like to keep my dog active and can do the same with yours. I typically play fetch in the backyard with Axl to really run around. I also allow plenty of time for him to sniff the neighborhood on long walks.

Pet care experience

I am a stay at home mom with the time to care for your pup as well as mine. Our kids and dog love to play with other dogs. We often take walks in the neighborhood and play fetch in the backyard. I'd be happy to have your dog join us! There is a good amount of lounging on the couch as well!

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.
