Pet care experience

Just a pet-sitter ready to help!

My family owned a Rottie for 6 years, and I've pet sat for family and friends for years. Both my family's dog and a couple of other puppies I have cared for have separation anxiety and I am prepared to take care of dogs with a little extra care. I personally love it when owners already have a pre-set checklist of how they'd like me to care for their pet and their home because that helps me do a good job.

Safety, trust & environment

I really appreciate when pet owners already have a set of tasks they'd like done or taken care of as I pet and house sit. It helps me do a good job, and know that I am not missing any important details. Especially if its a pet that needs extra care or if they just need someone to water that plant while they're gone. If a pet has a lot of separation anxiety, I'm pretty flexible with staying with the pet as often as I can to make sure they, and all home decor stays safe. I am also not afraid to take a pet to the vet in the case of an emergency and I think updating the owners when I come and go or other small things throughout the visit is really important. Every pet owner wants to know their pet is taken care of :)

House Sitting • Jun 03, 2026

This was the second time I’ve booked Serena, and she was great with my blind/deaf dog, Shiola. She was responsive, gave consistent updates, and was very respectful of my home. It’s nice to know that my dog is in good hands when I’m out of town, and I hope I’m able to book her again for my next trip!

Serena was great. She was super communicative, prepared, sent lots of dog pic updates, & left our house looking great! Would absolutely love to have her back.

Serena was available and communicated so quickly when we needed someone for our two dogs with less than a week’s notice. She was very thorough with the information she gathered prior to the sit and sent updates throughout her stay including pictures. Thank you so much!

Serena does a fantastic job. She has taken care of our dog and two cats a number of times and also house sat. We always feel relaxed when she is looking after our pets and come home to a house that’s cleaner than when we left.

I had a great experience with Serena. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about our pet’s well-being. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our 3 dogs were happy, healthy, and well cared for when we returned home. We’ll definitely be using her services again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

Serena can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
If they have special needs or care, I ask that the details of their care are carefully written out so that I can review the notes as needed. I also prefer to meet the family before officially accepting the booking so we can become familiar with each other before I watch the pets and so if need be, I can see them doing the routine of care if it's complex. I also need to know if the pet has separation anxiety or what the owners preferred plan of action is in case of emergency (like the info of their vet or preferred clinic).
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.
