Pet care experience

I am an animal lover and high school teacher. I have a 16 year old Yorkinese and helped raise my parents 6 year old labradoodle. Therefore, I have experience taking care of young puppies and senior dogs. My dog and my parent’s dog are also very friendly with other dogs. I also have experience with cats as I have watched my roommates cat in college and I have grown up with cats in the past. If you have any questions about my experiences with animals please do not hesitate to ask. I would welcome the opportunity to care for your fur baby or babies

We had such a great experience with Mimi! She was super communicative and kept us updated with messages and photos, which made us feel so much better while we were away. She always let us know if she was going to be a little early or running a few minutes late, and we really appreciated that. It was clear she genuinely cared about our cat, and we came home to a happy, well cared for boy. We'd definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

Mimi was absolutely amazing in taking care of my dogs and cats! She went above and beyond in keeping my informed. She also went out of her way to make my fearful dog feel safe - and they were best friends by the end of the sit! She also handled the medication for my senior dog twice daily. I felt completely comfortable leaving my pets in Mimi's care and I had total peace of mind the entire time. I will definitely book with her again, and I can't recommend her highly enough!

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.
