Loving Care for Your Fur Baby🐾🐶

As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, companionship, feeding, medication reminders, or simply extra attention and affection, I will care for them as if they were my own. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind.

Safety, trust & environment

As a lifelong dog owner, I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust. I provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment where pets are treated like family. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and routines to help pets feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to keep your pet happy, safe, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind when you're away.

Schedule

I am an elementary school teacher currently enjoying summer break, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, and companionship for your pets. During the school year, I am available after 3:30 p.m., as well as on weekends and school holidays. I am dependable, responsive, and committed to making sure your pet receives the care and attention they deserve.

Before booking, I would love to hear all about your dog's unique personality. Please let me know their bathroom routine, what commands they know, and if they have any separation anxiety. I do really well with calm, friendly dogs of most sizes. Knowing their triggers, like thunderstorms or loud trucks, helps me keep them stress-free!
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.
