Pet care experience

Because Your Baby Deserves the Best

🐾 From active pups in need of structure and training to gentle older pets in need of extra patience, I have expertise taking care of dogs of all ages. Whether it's engaging games, soothing cuddles, or adhering to unique routines like medication or food requirements, I'm excellent at interpreting a dog's body language and making them feel safe and loved. I prioritize open communication and regular updates to provide you peace of mind while you're away because I understand how crucial it is to trust someone with your cherished family member.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize keeping their routine consistent and stress-free. I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of potty breaks, exercise, and affection. I’m also happy to help with little extras, like bringing in mail or watering plants, to make things easier while you’re away. I always send updates and pictures so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is safe and happy.

Shelby was great and flexible with us as our flight was delayed due to government shutdown. Will book with Shelby again in the future! She sent a lot of pictures!

Shelby is very nice. Fred took to her very quickly. Shelby is very kind, gentle and relaxed, but always vigilant watching him as he played in the yard. I highly recommend her and she will be watching Fred on a weekly basis and then daily basis.

Before watching a pet, I like to know a little about their routine and what makes them happiest. Things like their feeding schedule, potty habits, and exercise needs are really helpful, along with any health issues, medications, or allergies. I also like to know about their personality — how they do around new people or other animals, and if they have any fears or triggers. And of course, knowing their favorite toys and what helps them feel safe and comfortable helps me make sure they feel right at home 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.
