Pet care experience

Weekend & Evenings, All Animals! <3

I grew up with dogs, have cared for family dogs both young and old. I pet sat for friends and a couple clients in high school (mainly taking dogs for periodic walks, feeding them, playing with them). Was a house-sitter/dog-sitter for a winter break in college for a family friend, and now I work from home and miss caring for an animal! Occasionally will watch my parents' dog if they go out of town, but would love to start a more regular pet-sitting schedule.

Safety, trust & environment

My apartment complex does have a dog park that I can bring your dog to, or I am happy to take your dog anywhere they enjoy going. Love to go for long walks to get them tired out! Have also taken many dogs on golf cart rides (residential streets only). I am happy to accommodate any needs of your pets or home, including brushings, walks, play time, going to a park, feeding/water/medicines, taking in the mail, watering the yard/plants, etc.

This was the second time Rachel has stayed at our home for a long weekend to watch our dog. It was a stormy few days and she took extra good care of our anxious boy throughout all the thunder. Great communication, lots of photos and came home to a happy dog and well kept home. Thanks again Rachel!

Rachel was a great sitter and stayed at our home for 4 days over new years. Our dog is anxious during fireworks but she went above and beyond to keep him comfortable when he was feeling anxious. Her communication was excellent with frequent updates and photos, and she left our home spotless. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!

Rachel was very responsible and communicative. The dogs seemed to have a great week.

We had such a great experience! Rachel stayed at our home over the long weekend and took wonderful care of our dogs and the house. Communication was easy, we got updates and pictures, and it was clear our pups were happy and loved while we were away. We came home to a tidy house and very content dogs—couldn’t ask for better. Highly recommend!

I had a great experience with Rachel dogsitting at my house! She was attentive and met my dog before the weekend to make both me and my dog comfortable. She sent plenty of pictures, went on walks, and played in the backyard. I will definitely book Rachel again in the future!

Definitely let me know of any special needs, if they have a cone, need any meds or need to be fed at particular times. Also important to know how they get along with other dogs, people, and children. And if they have any favorite activities, toys, or treats!
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.
