Pet care experience

Hanging with Mosley the coonhound

My name is Sandy and I offer walks, or check ins for dogs, cats, or other small pets. I live in a house with a fenced in back-yard in Apex. I am very flexible for small animal check-ins: cats, rabbits, and other small pets. My husband and I both grew up with cats and dogs and love to have dogs around. We have a friendly and playful 15 year-old coonhound named, Mosley, who loves to play and always has 3 walks a day. He has a sensitive stomach so we are used to special diets. We will ask questions about your dog's schedule and preferences to make sure they are comfortable. My husband works full time from some so there will almost always be someone in the house to give your pet all the attention they need. We have a fenced in yard with 6 foot fences and many greenways around us. On the weekends we love to take hikes or long walks. Outdoors adventures are the best. I have a car and can drop off/pick up if necessary.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced-in backyard at my house. We don't want any pet to spend time alone unless they are comfortable. I can provide any diet accommodation or medication schedule. Our dog is somewhat independent but loves to hang with other dogs. So he can be be both comforting or distant depending on your dog's needs. For dog walks, I love to make it as entertaining and fun as possible while being safe.

Sandy and her husband took great care of my dog while I was gone! She sent numerous pictures and updates, recommended toys and items my dog seemed to enjoy a lot, and even sent us home with a toy he really liked. I highly recommend her and look forward to booking with her again!

We were visiting the area for a wedding and Sandy was a fabulous help to us! She accommodated us last minute and Dowdy had so much fun. He came home completely exhausted and happy! If we are in that area again, we will definitely rebook! Thank you Sandy!

Our dog Rosie loved her stay with Sandy! Rosie must have had a good time because she did not seem very excited to be home lol. Sandy sent us plenty of photos and updates and we would definitely book her again!

Sandi took care of our “baby”- Rocky when we were out of town. She was phenomenal- took great care of Rocky- he had a great time with her and Mosley. Sandi had the days planned out and kept us updated with pictures through the day. We will definitely be leaving Rocky again with her, next time we have to do that.

Sandy does a wonderful job taking care of Kali! She sends pictures and keeps me updated about her day! I highly recommend her for dog sitting.

Schedule

My husband works from home full time and I'm off for the summer so we can offer bathroom breaks throughout the day. Our dog Mosley always gets at least two walks a day, at 7 AM and 10 PM with a 12 PM walk weather permitting. When he can't be walked, he always gets the option of outdoor time in the fenced-in backyard.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Sandy can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
We take any breeds but need to know any quirks about a dog like separation anxiety or chewing habits. We cannot board unfixed animals due to our dogs preferences.
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.
