Pet care experience

I’ll love them like my own!

I’ve been caring for dogs of all kinds since I was 10 years old. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I’m comfortable with different breeds, temperaments, and routines, and I genuinely enjoy providing attentive, reliable care. Long term stays welcomed!!

I used the Rover dog sitter app this weekend and had a wonderful experience with Shanina R. while she cared for my dog, Koda. From the start, she was professional, kind, and attentive, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Koda was well cared for and seemed happy and comfortable throughout his stay. I truly appreciated the updates and excellent communication. I would definitely use Shanina's services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This was the best experience I’ve had on rover! I’m definitely a helicopter parent for my baby girl Athena. Shanina made sure my girl felt super welcomed and a part of the family. Athena will definitely be back!

Great communication, and quite flexible for pick up and drop off which is always appreciated. I recommend her and will be having my pup stay over next time using Rover!

Shanina provided excellent care to my pup. She provided updates with videos which allowed me to relax knowing my fur baby was in good hands. I would definitely use her again when I’m traveling in that area.

Pets

A typical day

Stimulating animals and keeping them busy is important to gain their attention and love. Taking them for walks by the lake and having their favorite toy on hand makes a positive difference! ***Disclaimer: Pets may occasionally eat less during their stay due to adjusting to a new environment. This is normal, as their attention is often focused on exploring, playing, and socializing. Appetite typically returns to normal once they become more comfortable and settled.

I’d like to know their behaviors, just knowing what to expect as for safety and comfort. Animals have emotions as well and it’s easier to care for them if their behavior is known.
