Knowing about your rules for your pet will help me care for them in the best way.

Critical info to provide includes primary & backup contact, along with vet contact info.

Pet care experience

Completed Bark Busters & Canine First Aid Training. Both of my latest fur babies crossed the rainbow bridge at 14 years old. They had good lives & are greatly missed. Compassionate care for senior dogs / energetic care for younger pups. Chemical-free household. Ask me about homeopathic remedies for strains/sprains, hot spots, skin conditions, digestive issues and flea control.

Sheila was our absolute hero and stepped into care for our lovely little senior dog after a last minute cancellation from another sitter. She was wonderful. She sent daily updates about our pup and took great care of her and our home. I appreciated her open communication and ease and would 100% book with her again.

We had a dog care need come up with two weeks notice and Sheila was able to help us out. This was our first time using Rover for a sitter or boarding and Sheila (with her husband) made Rory feel at home. She got her cuddles, scritches, treats and a big yard to run after the ball. I loved the updates and pictures of Rory enjoying her weekend doggy getaway.

Our Sadie was well taken care of by Sheila during a three night stay. Also she kept us informed about how Sadie was doing, along with photos which were much appreciated. It was comforting to know that sadie was very well taken care of!

Shelia was amazing with our foster pup we needed a last minute sitter for. She communicated with us sending pictures and updates the entire trip and was very good and patient with our crazy Malinois pup. Very nice yard for him to play in and her home was well equipped to care for him. 100% recommend Sheila for anyone looking for a sitter.

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.
