Information Missy K. would like to know about your pet

I specialize in small dogs and I'm very good with senior dogs. I don't have a breed preference but dogs must have a good temperment and the ability to get along with others. I will ask you questions about the kind of food your dog eats, what is his/her daily schedule like, where do they normally sleep?

A typical day

While staying at my house your dog will enjoy walks around my neighborhood. We play in the fenced yard with toys. I throw the balls for dogs to chase or fetch and we enjoy the sun. I do not leave dogs in yard alone. They follow me around so if I'm outside so are they and when I go inside so do the dogs. I always have bowls of fresh water inside and outside.

Small dog and senior dog specialist

Pet care experience

I love small dogs with their unique personalities! I have been a full time dog sitter for more than 10 years. I am very flexible and almost always available. When your fur baby stays at my house we play in the fenced backyard, can take walks around my neighborhood, and cuddle on the couch. The dogs can sleep in my bed or wherever they are comfortable. I separate dogs at meal time so they stay on their own diet. I am certified in pet 1st aid and have no problem giving medication or insulin shots. My home is a safe and comfortable place for your dog to stay while you are away. I will send you pictures and updates. I give lots of love and attention to all my furry friends!

We are so happy with Misty had a great experience. She was kind and if she was able to get our grumpy gal so comfortable (even around other dogs!) she can work her magic with everyone. We recommend her 100%!

We were going on cruise and needed someone to watch our little Maddie for 10 days. Missy made it easy for us. She took her on walks, and has a great fenced in area. She kept us informed with texts and photo’s, throughout the stay. If we are in that area again, we would definitely use 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.
