I’m back to hybrid with Wednesday being my in person day. I do have it blocked off, but please feel free to message me as I can drop in before work or after work if that works for you! Whether it’s a check in, walk, or you just want me to keep them company. I’m happy to show your pet some love while you’re away.

Gives your pet all the love

Pet care experience

For new clients, I prefer having a meet & greet at least 24 hours prior confirming a booking to make sure I know all of your pet’s needs. I’ve been surrounded by pets all my life. I had my first dog at 10 until he passed at the ripe age of 18. I currently live with my fur niece. I pay attention to body language and am respectful about their space. I have interacted with multiple throughout my life and always make sure I give love and respect.

We are so happy with the care she provided for our dogs while we were away. She kept us updated throughout the entire stay, sent regular messages, and was always quick to respond whenever we reached out. Our dogs seemed very comfortable and relaxed with her, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. When we returned home, we found them happy, calm, and well cared for. She also left our home incredibly organized, which was such a thoughtful touch. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter!

We had a wonderful experience with Minerva! Before we even confirmed the booking, she came by to meet our two cats and get familiar with the home. While we were away, she took great care of the cats and also watered our outdoor plants. She was attentive, dependable, and genuinely caring. We highly recommend her and will definitely be booking again!

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.
