Pet care experience

LOVE animals; play, walk & cuddle

I have extensive experience as a pet owner. I have owned dogs as small as 10 pounds and as large as 110 pounds and everything in between. I still own a dog, she is a Smooth Collie and friendly and docile as can be. I do not remember a time in my life where there was not at least one dog in it, and I have owned as many as 4 dogs and 3 cats at one time. I absolutely love dogs and cats and am very aware of their body language since they can't speak the same way we do. I enjoy hiking and, if it is nice out, would most likely be taking our dogs on an easy hike at least once per day.

Sharon was amazing with my dog. She was kind, attentive and sent regular photos & updates. My dog loved getting to walk regularly and to play outdoors with Sharon's dog, Mitsy. I trust that my dog was well taken care of in Sharon's care. I'll definitely be calling on her again!

Sharon was an awesome dogsitter! We only were out of town for one night, but she sent us a text and pic to let us know how Allie was that night, and again, she sent a text and pic to let us know how Allie was the next day. She took Allie hiking with her dog, and as requested, she delivered Allie back to our house after the hike, so Allie was waiting for us when we got home! I highly recommend Sharon!

Sharon is kind and reliable. She and her dog Mitsy came over to play with Max, and then take him for a walk while my husband and I were working. I already have her scheduled to help walk Max next week!

Sharon is a great dog walker! She was very attentive to Seamus and sent me lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. She is very reliable and I will certainly be contacting her again.

Not only is Sharon a wonderfully loving and competent dog mama to Mitsy, her beautiful Collie, but my two dogs also adore her. She understands how dogs think and is incredibly proactive in her attention to their needs. She is an active, outdoorsy person who loves to get out and enjoy the fresh air with her canine friends. She is also a very responsible, mature woman who can aptly handle any situation thrown her way. I would trust her to lovingly care for my dogs without hesitation.

It is important to know how the dog reacts to other pets while on a leash, it's level of socialization, types of treats that are acceptable, favorite type of play and toys, key words used for behavior (sit, down, lay, heal, etc.).
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.
