Schedule

Pet care is a top priority in my daily routine. I plan my day around feeding times, walks, play, and cuddle sessions to ensure every pet feels loved, safe, and cared for. I work from home, so your pet will never feel alone or neglected.

Safety, trust & environment

I create a safe, calm environment where pets feel at home. I have a doggie door and a fenced in yard. I follow their routines closely, keep a secure space (no open doors or hazards), and give lots of love and attention. Their comfort and safety always come first.

Pets

A typical day

I start the day with a walk and feeding, followed by playtime or quiet cuddles depending on your pet’s needs. I stick to their routine and send regular updates so you always know how they’re doing. If the weather is nice, we may end up at a dog park or beach.

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or health issues. I can accommodate most minor concerns, but pets with serious medical conditions may be better suited to a sitter with veterinary experience/training.
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.
