Safety, trust & environment

When walking a dog, I always make sure he/she is comfortable (not get overheated, have water available) and pay attention during the walk. When caring for a pet in someone’s home, I want to build their trust and make sure they feel comfortable with me. I clean litter boxes, provide cuddles, and play if they like.

Pets

Caring pet walker and sitter!

Pet care experience

I have had two wonderful dogs in my life; an Australian Shepherd/Blue Heeler mix and a German Shepherd. I have worked with dog trainers and can provide consistent guidance during walks. I have cared for cats who required daily injections, and dogs who needed support post surgery. I began my time with Rover in November of 2023, and I have years of experience as a dog and cat mom.

Susanne helped to cat sit for us when we were out of town for a week. She was very responsible, communicative, and easy to work with. We will definitely love to work with her again!

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.
