Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes—including my own 135lb German Shepherd! I’ve looked after pets for friends, family, and many wonderful clients here on Rover. I'm known for being trustworthy, caring, and responsible, and I truly treat every pet like my own. I’m currently a college student studying psychology and public health, working toward a career as a therapist. I bring a calm, cheerful energy and love making pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a 125lb German Shepard Iv taken care of since we’ve brought him home (4 years ago) this includes feeding, walking, giving him his daily medications/vitamins, and of course playing. Dogs/ animals are my best-friends as me and my family have a very warm welcome to any dog that steps foot into our home.

We left our two cats for two weeks—the longest they’ve ever been alone—while we traveled across the country, and we were extremely nervous, especially because one of our cats is very anxious and deeply attached to humans. We found Purva through Rover on our first search, and calling her “sent from animal care heaven” would honestly be an understatement. From the initial meet-and-greet, Purva was warm, down-to-earth, and incredibly reassuring. Before leaving, I set up cameras around the house because we were worried about stress-related behaviors like inappropriate peeing or vomiting, particularly from our anxious cat. Somehow, during those two weeks, our cats seemed happier than when we’re actually home. They were consistently well-fed, the litter box was always clean, and although Purva was scheduled for 30-minute visits each day, she never left until every requested task was completed thoroughly and thoughtfully. Most impressively, our anxious cat—who typically urinates around the house when stressed—did not act out even once during the entire two weeks. That alone speaks volumes. I fully attribute this to Purva’s patience, attentiveness, and genuine care. She arrived on time every day and was even available for last-minute visits during an emergency, which gave us incredible peace of mind. We truly could not have asked for a better cat sitter. Purva exceeded every expectation, and we would trust her with our cats again without hesitation. And one more thing we absolutely loved was that Purva always attended the visits with a member of her family. Safety comes first above everything, and this meant so much to us. It gave us an extra level of comfort and peace of mind knowing she prioritized her own safety while caring for our home and our cats.

Purva took great care of my cats! She fed them, played with them, cleaned litter, dispensed medicine, and gave them lots of pets! Would definitely book Puvra again.

Purva did an excellent job of taking care of Marble. Marble took an instant liking to her which is rare as she is usually a little shy and takes time to adjust. Marble and Purva bonded instantly and I did not have to worry about Marble while we were away. I highly recommend her.

Important information for me to know is if your dog is reactive with other dogs, kids or people. As well as if your dog has any food allergies or food you prefer them staying away from.
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.
