I am a recent college grad that has started my full time job, however, I wasn’t quite ready to give up pet sitting as I truly enjoy it so much! My job is somewhat flexible with hours, typically allowing me to be available after 4pm with some wiggle room before then. Unsure if my schedule would be a good fit? Reach out! I am happy to talk a bit more to determine whether your furry friend(s) and I are a good fit. I am unfortunately typically unable to accommodate house sitting that is over 3-4 nights, but am happy to discuss details further on a case by case basis!

Safety, trust & environment

I have treated every dog and cat I’ve watched as if it were my own. The safety of you, your pet, and I is my top priority, alongside with cleanliness and communication.

Information Zoe G. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know ahead of time what particular needs your dog has. Whether it is a strict schedule or a loose schedule, any behavioral issues, and any specific needs or quirks that your pet has.

A typical day

We will play bunches and bunches. I’d love to play fetch in the yard. I also love walks whether it is down the road and back, or maybe a hike on a local hiking path! All of this being said, I am NEVER opposed to a good snuggle and chill hang out with any pet that is not quite as energetic :)

Pet care experience

I was a 12 year old entrepreneur with a dog walking business (big thanks to my neighbors who supported me), and I have only continued to gain experience since. I have experience with special circumstances such as medication and special routines. Beyond the dog sitting jobs I have held for loved ones, I have also been using Rover since 2022. This has given me the opportunity to care for such a wide variety of dog (and cat) breeds, personalities, and ages. Each pet that I have cared for truly has a piece of my heart.

Zoe was the best!! She helped us out in a pinch and was super communicative & professional, + showed up early. She even held our dog’s paw when he missed us, which he loved, and he’s never been more calm when we come home. Highly recommend. Thanks Zoe!

Zoe was great! She was communicative, sent photos regularly and handled the little nuances of my two little guys very well. Appreciate her taking the job last minute, and being flexible!

Zoe did a great job with our new puppy Daisy. She dropped in twice on the day we were out of town, taking her to go potty and playtime. Zoe also sent us photos just as we had asked her to do. Would definitely use Zoe again!

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.
