Information Sylvia D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any medical needs. How many walks a day they are used to, what they like - quiet time or play time.

A typical day

Days include neighborhood walks, supervised play, enrichment, rest, and optional dog park visits (with approval). Evenings wind down with dinner, walks, and cozy downtime. Home full-time with constant supervision and regular updates

Pet care experience

I’m a full-time, home-based pet sitter offering 24/7 care in a calm, cage-free environment. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, including large breeds, and provide personalized care, constant supervision, and regular updates. Volunteered in shelter in Long Island, NY for many years, taking care of seniors and "aggressive" labeled dogs.

I have 4 small dogs and Bella (and Sylvia) took wonderful care for all over a week. Sylvia was very professional during the early communication and doggy introduction. I have Brussels and Bella is much larger but she is very sweet and gentle. 5 star review and I am recommending Bella’s for my friends in West Palm. It’s worth the drive for peace of mind!

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.
