Availability

I’m currently in grad school, but my schedule leaves open time for daily walks and quality companionship, as well as boarding on the weekends! I also live very close to a beautiful park with many walking paths and open greenery that I would be happy to show your pup if that’s their fancy :) P.S.— I’m still eagerly accepting new routine clients!

Information Patrick H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. I have taken care of dogs with special needs before and I’m very flexible, and most importantly, quite patient with all pets in my care.

A typical day

I will do my best to tailor my care of your pet to your personal preferences—of course, nobody knows them quite like you do! We can check out all the new smells in my neighborhood and explore a big park near my house if your pet would enjoy that!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of pets my whole life and I doubt that will ever change! I’m very gentle and like to take a soft approach when meeting with new furry friends in order to establish a basis of trust that is important for their best comfort and care. I am also quite flexible handling pets’ individual needs and go out of my way to ensure they are met.

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.
