Furbabies are family!

Pet care experience

I have taken care of my cousins 3 dogs when they go on vacation for the past 5 years. I have also taken care of a friends two dogs while they were away. I make sure to follow instructions left so that your furbabies have the same schedule and care. My dog has some physical issues and needs more special attention so I understand how important it is to follow routines. I know basic commands with dogs and I am responsible for taking care of your family member.

Melissa is my cousin but I highly recommend her as a sitter! She is a full-time teacher and interested sitting through Rover during time off, which is exactly what I do. She is responsible, reliable, and trustworthy. She is great with animals and they adore her. She stays at our house while we are away and cares for our 3 dogs. I always feel completely at ease when they are in her care. They absolutely love when she stays here with 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.
