Information Mina S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pup has any special needs. Do they prefer a harness or a collar for their leash? Do they need some extra water or snacks for the road? How are they with other animals or kids? Going on walks means encountering a lot of new things. And how long is your pup comfy with going out?

A typical day

I'm so lucky to be on long island. We have such a diverse landscape. From walking on beaches to hiking trails. I don't have any special places yet but I'm always open to suggestions. As long as your pup can explore, and smell new things. I love playing fetch and tag.

I've been called the cat whisperer

Pet care experience

I've grown up with both dogs and cats of many different breeds. I've been personally responsible for caring for many cats and kittens since I was 9 years old. many of which I have worked with right into their twilight years. Every animal is different but I really enjoy getting to know 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.
