Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was very young, we’ve always had pets in the house. I currently have 2 cats and a dog. I’ve worked in animal care for years and have experience with all kinds of animals, including those with behavioral issues and/or medical needs!

Was very good at keeping my pets water full and litter box clean. Was also very good at sending me pictures after every visit.

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.
