Pet Whisperer

Pet care experience

Hello!! I’m Salem and I’m a current college student studying history. I have been around animals all my life and love them more than anything. My goal is to leave you worry free, and build trust. I know it can be stressful leaving your baby with someone else. I have experience with different sizes and breeds of cats and dogs. I’ve previously worked as a canine coach at a dog daycare, and am able to recognize and quickly react to their behavior.

This is the second time Salem has pet-sat for me. She's very good at communicating and sending updates. She keeps the house nice and tidy and is very trustworthy. My dog seems very happy when Salem's taking care of her.

Salem is amazing with our dogs! Our senior (13 yrs) girl is anxious with new people, and Salem was so patient with her. We will definitely ask her to dogsit again!

Salem was amazing! Super last minute my flight was cancelled and I wasn’t going to make it home to my dog. Within an hour of booking she was at my house sending updates and pictures of my pup. She made me feel super at ease during a very stressful time. Will absolutely be booking her again and would recommend to anyone

This is the third time we have used Salem for house sitting. She is consistent in providing attentive care for our dog and always keeps us informed on a daily basis! Certainly plan to continue to rely on her wonderful service in the future for our pet's needs!

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.
