My name is Pam, I am retired from my full time career as a Registered X-ray Technologist. I have three grown children out of the house now, one of which is a Veterinarian, so I also have access 24/7 to questions or advice for dog care and Emergencies. I have always loved and had dogs in my life and am currently owned by a Pug myself. I treat my dog as a member of the family and your dog would be no exception! I have a nice fenced backyard and a nice home inside for them to be comfortable. We have sidewalks throughout the neighborhood for safe walking, and a lot of friendly dog walkers. Of course, the main ingredient here is lots of love and attention. I can adhere to your dogs needs and schedule whatever that may be, you just let me know. They will sleep inside on their own bed, and I recommend bringing their own food as it is not good to change their diet or routine. I would like to eliminate as much unnecessary stress for your dog as possible because just being separated from their Humans is stressful enough! About this sitter: I am a friendly and sociable person who happens to love dogs. I am retired now and have lots of time to help others by caring for their dogs when they can't be there. I'm a very caring and patient person, having cared for patients in the medical field for about 40 years. Now it's time to give some of that caring and love to the dogs as they offer unconditional love all the time! I know as a dog owner myself, I would want the same for my baby when I travel which is what brought me to rover.com.
