Safety, trust & environment

Whenever I dog sit at the owner's home, I take on the motto: "leave it looking better than when you arrived." I walk in a deep conviction for taking care of other people's things. I am transparent and value open communication. It is best that I take care of your pet in your home since my home lacks a backyard and adequate space for play.

Michelle was extremely attentive and made sure to preform a house visit prior to starting the cat sitting. Due to Michelle’s professionalism I had no doubt that my kitty would be taken care of while I was gone!!

Michelle was absolutely amazing! She communicated with us the entire time we were gone about our puppies and all the pictures that were sent they looked so happy she was there. Would definitely book with her again!

Michelle did an amazing job watching our pups. She was dependable and gave us regular updates during her visits. Our pups were in great hands, and we wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.

Michelle was great with our overnight sitting. She communicated well and sent lots of updates about our girl. She is so sweet to our girl and she took care of the house. She is also very open to feedback we hope to use her again for future visits.

Schedule

I am finishing up grad school this Fall semester with an internship and a part-time job. I am usually out of the house for 3 to 6 hours during the day (this can vary depending on the pets specific needs), but I am naturally a homebody, so if I can be home, that’s where I’ll be. Mondays and Thursdays I have a night class from 6 to 10 PM (minus one Thursday a month). Tuesday nights I have a church engagement from 7 to 9:30 PM. Aside from those commitments, I am *usually* at home the other nights of the week. On Saturday, I’m usually home for a good chunk of the day, minus maybe three hours here and there. Sundays, I go to church in the morning but am back at the house making lunch and doing chores, until I need to leave to run errands or get much needed quality time with friends. If owners allow me to have friends over, it means that I get more quality time with their fur babies, but I always ask beforehand and respect whatever the owner prefers. I am a homebody and so enjoy spending time with the dogs (and/or cats) that I take care of, whether that’s playing fetch, giving lots of ear and belly rubs, running around the house or just resting for those senior pets. With that being said, because I have quite a bit scheduled out of the house this semester, I will probably work best with dog owners who don’t need someone at their house 24/7. My goal is open communication and to serve pet owners in a way that works best for them.

It is most important that I know how much time your fur babies need during the day (based on what they are used to). I want to ensure your pets are getting the care they need. Please refer to the section above, where I discuss my schedule in depth.
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.
