Highlights
Pet care experience
Your Pet’s New Best Friend!
I’ve grown up with dogs since I was three years old. Our household has once consisted of four dogs at once and I loved it. I’ve taken care of dogs as young as eight months to 14 years old. My experience consists of grooming, potty training, basic training, feeding & water, medication management, and even changing diapers in later stages of life. I’ve also taken care of neighbors pets, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, and even hedgehogs. I have experience of checking in on the dogs and feeding them throughout the day to staying at the house for hours to provide exercise and company for their furry friend. I also have over a year of volunteer experience at local dog shelters.

Schedule
I have a flexible job that allows me to be able to do Rover in my free time. I currently live in a duplex on the first floor. It is a spacious two bedroom apartment and has access to a backyard. The backyard is fenced in with a mix of a privacy fence and a chain link fence. The backyard is on the smaller side but still has space for the dogs to run around and have space to play fetch.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have two friendly dogs at my apartment that would love to meet your pet. We spend a lot of our time playing or snuggling on the couch. We go for walks around our neighborhood and we play fetch h in the backyard. I have a young energetic dog that loves to play and I have an older dog that loves to get the zoomies and then become a couch potato. When I am away, my dogs stay in their crates. For your furry friend, I can use a doggy gate to give them some extra space since they are in a new environment. I can keep them in my kitchen which will give them enough space to walk around and lay in their bed. My dogs takes medicine twice a day so I already have a routine for giving medications to my dogs. I would be happy to walk your furry friends with my dogs or by themselves if that is your preference. We also have plenty of dogs toys ranging from stuffed animals to the Bark Super Chewer toys, if your dog likes to destroy toys, like mine does. I have two beagles so I am used to food driven dogs that only listen if there are treats involved. I also have my garbage secured underneath the cabinets with baby locks on them so no animal can get to it. I also am within 20 minutes of a 24 hours emergency vet if your dog was to ever show any concerning signs.

A typical day
We will go on many walks throughout the day to take potty breaks and get some exercise. We also play fetch and let the dogs run around in the backyard. In the apartment, the dogs usually play with toys and wrestle each other. I also use dog puzzles for feeding and mental exercises. My dogs also love when I hide treats throughout the apartment for them to sniff out.
