Reviews
Had another wonderful experience with Rupal as a sitter for my dog Bernie! She sent sweet photos and it's clear Bernie had a fantastic time!
Rupal was great with our dog. He can be anxious in new places and Rupal really did everything to make him feel at home. She was very communicative and made sure to really understand his routine and needs. We were so nervous to leave our dog for the first time but she really put us at ease. We’ll definitely be using her services again!
Rupal was an excellent sitter! She was so thoughtful and caring in making my puppy feel safe, comfortable, and entertained during her stay (my pup has separation anxiety). Rupal was very responsive in communications. It's clear she is a true animal lover based on how loving and protective she is with her own sweet dog. I would recommend Rupal to anyone seeking outstanding care for their pet.
Rupal is the most loving and caregiving parent to her own pup who she adopted through the ASPCA in addition to her tireless efforts as an employee of that same organization. The rescue pup she adopted had great trouble with socialization and trusting people at first, but over time Ginny has evolved into a social butterfly of a dog! She excels at daycare and has become a friendly pup no doubt because of Rupal's efforts as her caretaker. Additionally, from my time of owning my own pets, Rupal made a particular connection with my dog, Paws, from my adolescence. She was a feisty and temperamental cockapoo who usually took time to warm up to people. However, she immediately fell in love with Rupal, who has a gentle and warming way about her when interacting with pups and people alike. It would be a great benefit to Rover.com to have Rupal as a dog sitter!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a small rescue dog. She is fixed and very playful. My building has a fenced yard I frequent with most dogs. They love to run around and play fetch there. On rainy days or for dogs who need some more confidence, I have an indoor agility set and plenty of enrichment games. I also love teaching tricks to get those brains working. I share an apartment with my retired mother, another dog lover. While she won't be involved in care, she will be there to give plenty of rubs, cuddles, and lap time.

Information Rupal P. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there are any behavioral issues I may need to account for. I am comfortable working with fearful and anxious dogs. Also let me know if your furchild has any food allergies or physical challenges so I can adjust treats and activities accordingly.
A typical day
I love to take long walks and go to the local dog park to let my animals run loose. We also go to my building's yard for fetch. I love doing various indoor enrichment exercises like sniff work and indoor agility.
