Safety, trust & environment

Safety is my top priority. In my home, I supervise pets closely, keep harmful items out of reach, and provide a calm, clean environment for them to relax in. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions carefully, maintain routines, and make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure.

Information Shayla W. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for your pet, I’d like to know about their daily routine, feeding schedule, or anything else that helps me provide the safest and most comfortable experience.

A typical day

A typical day with pets includes morning walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of attention. I make sure they get exercise, bathroom breaks, and lots of affection.

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, including a family dog I cared for for over 10 years. Now I have a 1 yr old puppy who keeps me active and experienced with all things puppy related . Because I’ve cared for both young and senior dogs, I’m comfortable with many different needs and personalities. I’ll always treat your pets like family and keep you updated while you’re away!

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.
