Pet care experience

Experienced, Caring, Certified.

For over 10 years, I had the privilege of managing the medical care for every animal at an amazing, private, no-kill animal shelter. As the Medical Manager, I was responsible for providing quality care to more than 2,500 animals each year. From extensive, long-term wound care and bandage changes for a sweet JRT mix after she suffered a venomous snake bite, to conducting playgroups with multiple behaviorally challenged dogs, to trimming dog or cat nails, I've done it all. I am also a Certified Fear Free Professional, which allows me to help you understand your pet's behavior and provide ideas for introducing positive enrichment opportunities into your pet’s environment and routine. My training and hands-on experience allow me to understand your pet's behavior and develop unique techniques to encourage positive interactions that build trust. Patience, persistence, and consistency are required in order to set pets up for success. Happy pets = Happy humans!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Throughout my many years of experience, both personally and professionally, I noticed one thing that all pets have in common is their response to disruptions in routines. Much like us, our pets feel a sense of stability in their normal, everyday routines. When that routine is disrupted by out-of-town travel plans, it is important to provide as much normalcy as possible, and that is my goal as your pet sitter. Patience, compassion, and understanding, combined with unmatched skills and a life long passion for pets, will guarantee a stress-free, positive experience for both you and your pet(s).

She was great with our crazy dog and cat! I was at ease the entire time we were out of town and the reports back and pics were awesome.

Rebecca is sweet and very responsible. I know my pets are in good hands when I leave town with Rebecca checking in. My cats are even getting brave enought to come out and get treats from her. ❤️

Rebecca is a wonderful sitter. She is dependable, kind, and my cats are even warming up to her after 1 vacation. My cats usually hide from strangers, so them coming out to see her is a wonderful bonus. I highly recommend Rebecca for all your pet sitting needs.

Schedule

My schedule is flexible depending on the day and times that you need, as well as, your location around the area. If you work long hours and your pup is need of a break during the day or night, I'll do my best to work with your schedule and make sure you don't come home after a long day to any more surprises! If you're going out of town but don't need someone to stay with your pets 24/7, I would love to help! My regularly scheduled dog walks and drop-ins still allow time for earlier visits first thing in the morning, late afternoon, and a late night visit which is perfect for those pets who don't require overnight supervision. I do have pets of my own so unless significant notice is given prior to the nights needed, I would have to decline in-home overnight care.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs

Rebecca can host up to 8 drop-ins per day
If your pet has any particular behavior concerns or medical needs, I would prefer to schedule a meet with you and your pet prior to my first visit at no cost to you. An in-home meet and greet with you and your pet is required for pets who are fearful of new people and/or pets who have a history of resource guarding such as being possessive of toys or treats, being protective of certain spaces in the home, or are barrier or leash reactive.
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.
