Pet care experience

Your Pup's New Bestfriend!

Are you seeking a passionate, dog loving companion to care for your fur baby? Look no further! A little bit about myself: I’m originally from California, I moved to Philly about a month and a half ago. I’ve had dogs my whole life, but I’ve been taking care of pets professionally for about five years now. Back at home I volunteered at the animal shelter (which I absolutely loved) and I’m in the process of doing the same here. In California I mainly did pet sitting through referrals. I’m currently getting my second degree - so Rover is not my full-time job, I more so do it because I love dogs, they hold a special place in my heart. They’re my favorite kind of company. Your dog will be showered with boundless affection and attention, making sure they feel right at home. And, to keep you in the loop, you can count on regular updates and adorable pictures.

This was Tyra’s second time watching Justin, and much longer than the first this time around. She didn’t send many updates or photos but he’s an old dog that doesn’t do much to update about 😆 He was having some incontinence issues which Tyra was very understanding about and accommodated by utilizing his diapers without issue and trying to take him outside more often. I was so grateful and felt very confident in the care he was getting!

Are there any favorite parks or routes for walks? Does your dog enjoy any particular games or toys? Are there any specific commands or cues that your dog knows? How does your dog behave around other animals and people? Are there any behavior issues I should be aware of (e.g., separation anxiety, aggression)?
