Safety, trust & environment

Your dog and I will spend a lot of time outside on walks or playtime. I don’t leave the dog alone for more than a couple of hours. Most of the time we just hang out together.

Information Phaedra R. would like to know about your pet

Do they get along with other dogs? When were they last checked for fleas? Does your dog have any quirks or separation anxiety issues? Any information that would be useful during their stay. The above are not dealbreakers just a way for me to approach your dog.

A typical day

Long walk, lots of play time while they stay with me or I house sit. Go on hikes, visit the beach and cuddling. About 3-4 walks a day depending on the dog.

Pet care experience

Trained in: Certified in Dog CPR. AKC evaluator Dog behavior specialist Animals are amazing and it’s always a privilege and honor to take great care of them while their families are away. I never take care of a lot of dogs at once. I don’t use Rover as a money maker. I like to bond with each dog and give them the individual attention they deserve. I have a world of experience taking care of animals. I've taken care of all sorts of pets and animals for over 30 years from domestic to wild animals.

Phaedra took such great care of our dog! She was communicative and responsive and it seemed like our dog had the best time of her.

Phaedra is absolutely wonderful with my dog, Josie. Even after a few weeks apart, Josie immediately started wagging her tail like crazy when she saw Phaedra. I get consistent and great updates, and can see that Josie is always safe, happy, and well taken care of.

Phaedra was wonderful with my dog! She sent multiple pictures and updates throughout the day. I would absolutely recommend her.

I can’t recommend Phaedra ENOUGH! I was a first time Rover user and was nervous about going out of town for 5 days. Phaedra took the best care of my dog, provided me constant updates the entire time I was away with photos, videos, and messages. I felt completely comfortable the entire time. And, my house was left just as clean as I left it! Highly recommend and will hopefully use Phaedra next time I’m out of town, so long as she’s available!!!!!

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.
