Pet care experience

Hold my cup, let me pet your pup!

Surrounded by dogs of all shapes and sizes throughout my life, caring for them has become second nature to me. Prioritizing a pet's needs over mine isn't just a choice; it's a commitment. I provide a comforting haven for your furry companion when the world seems a bit overwhelming. Using positive reinforcement techniques, I guide and engage dogs, redirecting their energy when needed. When your dog stays with me, our entire living space transforms into their temporary home. From the bed to the couch, every corner becomes their cozy spot. And if separation anxiety kicks in, I understand—I'm right there with you! Photo and video updates are always sent to keep you feeling connected.

Schedule

I've tailored my work schedule to prioritize animal care, ensuring that every moment spent with your beloved pets is filled with attention, care, and companionship. Understanding the unique needs of each furry friend, I've structured my day to accommodate feeding times, play sessions, and comforting routines that cater to their individual personalities.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, I ensure pets feel comfortable by providing a welcoming environment with designated spaces for play, rest, and relaxation. Daily activities are tailored to each pet's preferences, including walks, interactive games, and ample affectionate attention. Communication is key—I keep owners updated on their pet's well-being and ensure their specific care instructions are followed diligently.

Pets

A typical day

We'll kick off the day with a walk or some playtime. Throughout the day, engaging activities like interactive games, puzzle toys, and even some basic training exercises will keep your pet mentally stimulated and entertained. Weather permitting, we'll explore nearby parks or take a stroll to the dog park for socializing and exercise. If your pet enjoys lounging, they're welcome to claim their spot on the sofa or the provided dog beds. Interactive sessions for mental stimulation, belly rubs, and cuddles are a must, ensuring your pet feels loved and cared for throughout their stay. And of course, photo updates will keep you connected and reassured that your pet is having a blast!

Specify your preferred feeding times and the amount to be served per meal. Are there any specific dietary requirements or restrictions for your pet? I provide all-natural freeze-dried meat snacks for pups, but please inform me if you prefer an alternative. How much daily exercise does your pup typically require? How frequently does your pet need to go out during the day? Are there any health concerns I should be aware of, or is there any particular part of your pet's body they prefer not to be touched? Lastly, does your dog respond to specific commands or have any specific training I should be aware of?
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.
