Shalini was so patient with Toto while he was adjusting to a new environment. She was very communicative with me sending pics and updates. I highly recommend her.

Shaking was a very great sitter. She loves steamed to our request and kept on regular contact, allowing us to enjoy a worry free time with our fur baby. I would definitely book with her again. Thank you, Shalini

Shalini and her family are a joy to work with! Maverick loves it there and comes home well rested and happy.

Shalini provided excellent care to our Frenchie on a recent weekend stay. She welcomed our girl into her family's home and sent us pictures and a video showing Ladybug had settled in right away and was having a good time. Thank you, Shalini for your kind care of our girl!

This was our first time using Rover. Shalini is a great pet sitter who took care of our dog Buddy. She kept in touch daily with updates and photos. Buddy seemed very comfortable and happy in her home. Great first experience and we will definitely be reaching out again.

Shalini was awesome! She asked great questions to ensure Mavi was well cared for while we were away. Mavi was happy and comfortable at pick up.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a big fully fenced yard for the dogs to explore. I'm open to crates if your dog is trained. Dogs are allowed on couch for lounging throughout the day.

A typical day

I like to play mentally stimulating games with dogs. I take dogs for a neighborhood walk or to a nearby hike if they need more exercise. We'd also spend some time just lounging in the yard

I only accept house-trained dogs unless there is an ongoing medical issue. Behavioral concerns, body handling and medical information are required so that I can tailor best to your dog'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.
