Information Serena P. would like to know about your pet

I’ve cared for dogs with a variety of temperaments and medical needs, so I’m pretty comfortable handling different situations. Just let me know your dog’s needs, routine, and any quirks ahead of time, and I’ll do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for!

A typical day

A typical day includes me at home working on grad school assignments, so your pup will have plenty of company. We’ll go on long walks around the neighborhood, enjoy playtime in our fenced-in backyard, and spend lots of quality time inside with cuddles and attention. Your pet’s comfort and happiness will always come first!

Grad Student who loves animals!

Pet care experience

Hi! I’ve had dogs my whole life and have loved working with Rover doing boarding, walking, and sitting. My fiancé and I live in a split-level home with a fenced backyard—plenty of space for playtime and lounging. We don’t have pets right now or kids, so your pup gets all the love and attention! One of us is always home (my fiancé works remotely), and we’re comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. We live in a quiet, walk-friendly neighborhood, and we love staying active with our furry guests. Your dog will be treated like family—with lots of snuggles, playtime, and regular updates for you. Can’t wait to meet your pup!

This was my first time ever leaving my dog with a sitter and it couldn't have been a better experience. Serena and AJ were very communicative and responsible. Received daily updates and pictures of Remi which really put my mind at ease. Highly recommend!

Serena and AJ were amazing with Cookie!! It was very relieving & comforting to know she was in such great hands while I was out of the country for a bit. Serena was always super quick to respond, flexible, and I loved getting all the photo and video updates! 10/10 would recommend & I would definitely book again with her!

Serena took great care of Koda while we were gone for a long weekend. She sent pics and updates to let us know how Koda was doing and was very responsive and flexible. Koda enjoyed her stay!

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.
