Safety, trust & environment

I personally do not watch animals in my home for the time being. I have two elementary aged children and just want to keep them as safe as possible. It is something that could be discussed once I get to know you better. My animals are very spoiled and well taken care of.

Information Samantha M. would like to know about your pet

Size and bread make no difference to me. I like to know about any little quirks your babies may have, but we can usually cover that during a Meet & Greet. Knowing parking arrangements ahead of time is always helpful and anything I may need to know about entering the home. For example, if I should remove my shoes upon entering, if any of the animals try to escape when a door opens, whether to knock, ring the doorbell or text upon arrival, etc.

A typical day

I can throw a ball or play tug of war for hours with dogs who like that. For the older crowd, I don't mind sitting and lazing. I am fit to walk for about 2 miles or 2 minutes depending on what the animal prefers. For cats, I've been known to make them like so much, they trust me to touch their paws! Not sure how I do it, but i do.

Pets

Animal lover of all furry friends

Pet care experience

I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember and have often been the family dog walker and pet sitter. At the age of 15, I really took my dog loving seriously when I got the first dog of my very own and was able to leash train her and teach her some obedience commands with no training of my own. I now have 2 cats who are very spoiled and still pet sit and dog walk quite often. I have multiple recent references and am willing to meet in person and meet your animals before being hired. I have a big heart for animals and would love to share it with your fur babies.

Thank you for giving Henry a much needed mid-day break! He has been happy, and well-adjusted upon my return home.

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.
