I’m currently in school and working part time. I like to go in walks throughout the day to help clear my mind, so walking dogs is no problem. For pet sitting, I’m open to the needs of the owners and pets.

Safety, trust & environment

I follow routines already put in place or I can help to develop one to best serve the owners and pets. I’m ok with cleaning up after pets as long as I’m aware of where the cleaning materials are. I will use caution and ask for assistance if any special fabric, carpeting, or furniture has been affected.

Information Merci S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there is anything in particular that I need to be aware of regarding your pets personality or health please. Things like fear of hoods on people, escape artists, or allergies :)

A typical day

As long as my energy levels are good, I love to play tug of war or run around with a toy in my hand and let the dogs chase me within a fenced area. I just like playing with them, hugging them, and telling them how cute they are, in addition to everything else required for their care.

Pet care experience

Hellooo I’m Merci! 🌻 As a previous dog and cat owner (amongst other animals), I have significant experience with caring for them and would love to assist your family with your pet care needs! Open to regular schedules and occasional drop ins. I’m a full time student studying Hospitality Management, I have to be on campus in the morning from 0930-12 and I work for about 4-5 hours overnight/early morning per day outside of Rover. If this works for you, let’s meet! I look forward to assisting you!! 🌻

Merci did a great job with my somewhat anxious dog and grouchy cat. She was super communicative and took thoughtful and attentive care of them. The place also looks well taken care of. Thank you so much Merci!

Merci was awesome from start to finish — super prompt, dependable, and really communicative the whole time. She sent comprehensive updates and photos, and it was clear she genuinely cared for our pup and did a great job with him. We'll absolutely be booking her again!

Merci is fantastic! She stayed in my home with my 4-yr old Shiba Inu for 2 weeks, and sent me updates with pictures and videos everyday. She was very communicative & clearly enjoyed playing with my dog. I would absolutely hire her again, and I wholeheartedly recommend her !

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.
