Experienced Caregiver

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for animals all my life, cats ever since I could walk, and dogs since the age of 14 starting with my Yellow Lab Troi. I currently have a Pembroke Welsh Corgi who is 14 years old and gets along well with other dogs. I also have a 13 year old orange tabby cat who absolutely loves dogs. I have been watching animals through Rover since 2016 and have met some fantastic cats, dogs, chickens, rabbits and fish. I have experience both with younger dogs who need lots of attention as well as older dogs who might need some extra care. Feel free to ask me any questions you might have.

Perfect host. Not much more to say. Very accommodating, updated with pics, Rory was happy and healthy when I got back (hasn't always been the case).

My yard is completely fenced in with a locked back gate. While stepping out I crate all the dogs so nobody has an opportunity to get into anything they’re not supposed to.

Information Steve J. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog get along well with other dogs? Are they ok with going into crates for short periods of time while I step out?

A typical day

I live in a quiet neighborhood that is very close to Holcomb Baseball fields, every morning we wake up early for some yard time then have breakfast. I normally need to step in and out a few times during the day for walks and drop in visits, but will be home most of the day. We have lots of potty breaks and yard time differs with the temperature, on hotter days I limit their outside time, cooler days I let them spend as much time out there as they like.
