Safety, trust & environment

I care deeply about your pets saftey, each pet has their own special needs so I will discuss your pet with you and how to make sure they are in the absolute best care. I have a completely free schedule and can spend all day everyday with your pet, I'm experienced with getting pets to take oral medication, even if they would rather not take it. I want to make their, and your experience as comfortable as possible while you are away, deeply interested in listening to what works best for you. I have a very friendly corgi who would love to tag along for walks and such if that would make your pup happy. For overnighters I will need to bring her with me, she is cat friendly, dog friendly, bunny friendly, and I'm sure many more!

Information Xan E. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know if your pups are dog friendly! I have an extremely friendly and hilariously sassy corgi who would love to join in on walks if that is possible. On the other hand of that I'm wondering how your dog does with other dogs/people/animals, are they reactive? Are there specific triggers I should keep in mind?

A typical day

I absolutely love to walk, long hikes and big excursions are exactly up my alley! With my own dog I also love dog park visits, I would be potentially willing to take your pups on those kinds of trips as well after assessing recall, responsiveness, and other things I would need to feel extremely confident in having them there.

Years of professional pet knowledge

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Xan, and I'm a professional dog sitter based in Minnesota. I have been caring for pets for about seven years now, big and small dog experience. Before moving I worked at an animal shelter as a dog walker, which required me to be able to walk any and all kinds of dogs, I am experienced and capable. Pets, dogs especially, are the light of my life, I truly feel so lucky to be able to work with them, I look forward to meeting yours! *I charge more than others due to this being my full time job and my many many years of pet care qualifications. Even charging 20$ per walk I am barely scraping by, thank you for listening!

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.
