Trusted Detail Oriented Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Hello! I am excited for the chance to get to know your furry loved one. I have been around dogs and cats my whole life and understand how important they are to our lives. I will treat them like my own. I bring an easy going, friendly, and understanding energy to every pet care opportunity. I have 3 pets with my partner, one anxious pit bull from the pound, one very particular tabby cat, and one of the most loving siamese cats. They have taught me the complexity of pet behavior and how each one has their own specific needs. I am happy to wear a mask inside your home and test for COVID before arriving. If you are looking for a detail oriented, friendly, queer ,COVID conscious and trusted pet sitter, then I am the right pet sitter for you. Thank you for trusting me with your loved one!

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.
