Animal-Loving Caregiver 4 your Pet

Pet care experience

I have been around dogs and cats my whole life. Up until recently, I have raised 2 dogs for the past 15 years and cats prior to/during part of that time. I am a stay-at-home mom with 2 young adults away at college so I have flexibility to visit homes with dogs or cats throughout the day. My innate ability to connect with animals has inspired me to seek out work where I may spend more time caring for them. I understand the care and concern pet owners have for their pets, especially when they are not able to be home for them. My experience being the primary caregiver for my own pets has nurtured my love for animals and provided me with knowledge of basic training techniques. It is my goal to provide peace of mind that I will care for your pet the same as I would for my own furry loved one. I look forward to visiting with new furry friends!

Needed someone last minute to let my dogs out and feed them. Patty was willing to help and spent some quality time with my dogs when I was unable to!

This was our first time using Rover. We were nervous, but Patty made us feel Comfortable right away. She was right on time for our first visit and thoughtfully took notes on small details to remember for her drop by visits. We felt at ease on vacation knowing she would be looking in on our kitties. Highly recommend.

Patty has been the go to for years of cat sitting. I am always at ease when I know she’s taking care of Drogo.

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.
