Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced-in yard and prioritize a calm, safe environment for all pets in my care. I have two cats who are kept comfortably separated with their own space when dogs are visiting, as I understand transitions can be challenging. I’m very mindful of introductions, happy to crate dogs if needed, and always follow owner preferences and routines to ensure pets feel secure and well cared for.

Information Tristen L. would like to know about your pet

I appreciate knowing about your dog’s personality, routine, and any special needs ahead of time. Information about feeding, medications, allergies, crate preferences, training cues, or behaviors helps me provide the safest and most comfortable care possible.

A typical day

Each day is built around your dog’s needs and energy level. We’ll go on walks, play games, explore new smells, and enjoy safe outdoor time, balanced with rest, cuddles, and calm downtime. I focus on keeping dogs engaged, happy, and comfortable while maintaining their normal routine.

Loving Pet Care, 15 Years Experienc

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities for over 15 years. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m attentive, patient, and great at reading animal behavior, whether that means giving energetic dogs plenty of exercise or providing calm, gentle care for seniors or anxious pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own.

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.
