Pet care experience

Lover of animal kisses and cuddles!

PLEASE READ MY SCHEDULE BEFORE REQUESTING A BOOKING As a fun-loving, charismatic, playful, and cuddly human, I couldn’t imagine any better friend than one with four legs! I’ll love your furry little friend(s) in the same way I love my own dog and will provide the best care possible. With six years of walking, playing with, feeding, cleaning up after, and loving my own dog, I am confident in my ability to do the same for yours! Due to medical issues, it is my personal preference to not work too late at night or too early in the morning. However, I am willing to discuss a certain time for me to care for your pet so I can be as helpful as possible. I would appreciate it beforehand if you could inform me of your pet’s weight, breed, temperance, schedule, and favorite activities so I can be duly prepared. Please give me 24-hour notice before booking me. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! Thank you for your consideration.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

In order to ensure your pet’s safety and comfort, I like to follow any routine they may have in place while you’re away. For example, if they have a regular time at which they take a walk, I walk them at around the same time. As part of my drop-in visits and scheduled walks, I make sure to spend time playing with your furry friend and make sure they’re getting all the love they need while you’re away - and then some!

Ruby took great care of my boy Leo as always when I was away for a long weekend. Great communication and the pics she shares gives me peace of mind he's in good hands while I'm away.

As always, Ruby took amazing care of my two cats. My shy cat even sat on her lap, which she never does with any other sitters.

As always, Ruby provided excellent care for my two senior cats. They enjoyed lots of pets and cuddles. Even my shy cat, who doesn't trust most people, let Ruby pet her and give her scritches.

Ruby took excellent care of our two cats and was very prompt with responses. She also took care of our cat food auto-ship delivery when that arrived. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

Ruby always takes amazing care of my two senior cats, including giving them their daily medication. One of my cats is very shy with new people, but Ruby puts her at ease.

I would like to know about the dogs breed, temperance, weight, when and what they eat, and if they have any special needs that I should be aware of. I think it’s important for me to understand your dog’s personality as well so I can be the best sitter possible!
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.
