Information Sophia H. would like to know about your pet

Any information you can provide about your dog ahead of time is helpful, like eating or treat preferences, potty schedule, etc. Two huge deal breakers for us are if your dog will jump our fence or if they have accidents/mark in our house. We can try to make certain accommodations work, depending on what needs your pet has.

A typical day

We have a fully fenced in backyard that dogs we watch love to run around in. I also try to walk through a nature trail near our house, although this is dependent on the weather.

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Sophia. Thank you for considering us. Please note that we won’t watch any pets that we have not met before. We need to start with a meet and greet first. If that goes well, we can move forward with the booking process. My family and I enjoy pet sitting one dog at a time. This is more of a fun hobby and not something we do as a business. We are busy with our full time jobs and 3 kids, but enjoy spending time with sweet dogs. We do not take unneutered dogs, dogs that could jump our fence, dogs that have little to no training, or dogs that have extremely high energy. We also have cats. My cats wander around so any dogs that we watch need to be ok with cats. My husband works from home, so dogs who stay will be able to go outside as needed. We also try to take a walk every night as well. That being said, we can’t watch high energy dogs who need a lot of attention. Please note that we do have several stairs to get outside, so if you have a pet that does not do well with stairs, we may not be the best fit. I can work with some special needs animals. Please talk to me about what it is that they need and I’ll see if I can accommodate that. We understand that we are not the best fit for everyone. We enjoy being able to meet a new furry friend here and there that will work best with our family. Feel free to message me and we will see if we could be a good fit.

It seems like our pup had a wonderful time. He came home and fell asleep right away. It was nice to know he was well taken care of.

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.
