Safety, trust & environment

I have a lower level of my home where I will house the pets, I have an upstairs living room for the pets, a large back yard for them to be outside with a fence and feed them on the schedule their owner provides me. In the client's home, I will set up times to see the dogs, feed them on schedule of what is provided, take them on walks, and spend quality time with them. If there are any requests per the client's I am more than willing to accommodate.

Information taylor m. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are certain triggers or concerns your dog may have, any medications they may need, feeding schedule, and their favorite things to do.

A typical day

I know it is important to keep a dog mentally and physically stimulated. I would walk/run them in the neighborhood or take them to the mines of Spain to hike. Play with dog safe toys, and challenge them by teaching them new things (sit, shake, lay, etc.) I have a big yard where they would run around and be free as a bird!

We were confident leaving our sweet Mika with Taylor Wednesday through Sunday. When we picked her up she was content and not anxious at all! Taylor sent pictures which was nice to receive. We will definitely rebook if another need arises.

Taylor was great about communicating and being flexible about dropoff and pickup times, as well as being attentive to our dogs' particular and kind of complicated needs as far as feeding, medication, etc. Very happy with this experience.

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.
