Safety, trust & environment

I prefer not to board your furry friends unless absolutely necessary because of the furry loves I have at home already (in a studio apartment). But I am willing to care for your pets in their familiar environment while keeping your space clean and organized, as you would if you were home with them. The goal would be that the care is continued so well that they don't even notice you're away :)

Information Rani H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your [pet] has any special needs, restrictions, or behaviors I should be aware of. (i.e. don't bring around other dogs, be wary of allowing strangers to pet, separation anxiety, etc.)

A typical day

Long walks around your area (or shorter if that's what your pet is built for) plus potential trips to a park to get some extra running and playtime in. I can provide indoor playing, training practice, and mental stimulation for your pup, based on their needs/energy level. :)

Pet care experience

I cared for our family dog (Bichon Frise) growing up - regular walking, bathing, brushing, etc. I also shared care responsibilities for my roommate's 140lb Newfoundland/Rottweiler mix in college. I have had two cats for the last several years as well as a crested gecko and they are all happily cared for and loved to bits!

Rani and Brian were exceptional dog and home sitters! They were fully attentive to our puppy Tito, taking him on long walks and giving him tons of love. Rani sent me photos everyday of their adventures, and it was obvious Tito was having a blast with them! It is so comforting to find people I can trust to treat our pet and home like their own. I highly recommend Rani and will be hiring her again!

My dog is a bit of a challenge. He is really timid, and it takes him time to get used to people. Rani won him over quickly and took good care of him. Her communication was great, and she gave a lot of details about each of her visits. I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.

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.
