About: I want to give back to pet owners what I value in a pet sitter myself. I am dependable, trustworthy and glad to help out fellow pet owners. I just recently retired as a 911 police dispatcher and I wanna help out my fellow pet owners the way I received help from dog walkers on Rover when I was working. . I give my dog a wide variety of physical and mental activity as much as possible. This prevents separation anxiety, naughty behavior and her overall happiness as a dog. Activities include bones, puzzles, walks in the neighborhood, DIY obstacle courses, doggy day care (wags and wiggles), dog park and she has been on a couple pack walks with Ugly Dog Adventures and Buddies pack.

“Ashley is a wonderful person. She took the time to meet with me and spend time with my cat before the appointment. She made me feel safe about her taking care of my cat in my absence. One day my cat's litter box was full when she was trying to clean it, but no litter was around, so she returned the next day (after I told her where to find it) just to clean the litter box. That was very kind of her. Without a doubt, I'll book her again.”

About: As a mom of four and an empty nester, caring for others comes naturally to me. I’ve had dogs my whole life and am completely comfortable with pets of all sizes and personalities.

I’m available for pet care the rest of the week (and Monday-Wednesday, as needed) and can adjust as needed for your pet's routine. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment and am very comfortable caring for dogs in smaller spaces. I make sure pets get plenty of walks, attention, and love.

Meredith Parkwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Shihua is amazing and I have never felt so comfortable leaving my cat, which is basically my child, with anyone. She is so caring and knowledgeable and such a good person. I left for the east coast for a week and was comforted and at ease knowing she was there to take care of her. My cats older and has some health issues, but I felt reassured. I can’t thank her enough!

Maia is communicative, friendly, and detailed. She scheduled a meet and greet with me and my cats to make sure she understood all of their needs and where things were. She gave them treats and sent lots of pics of them playing and hanging around. I would definitely have Maia watch them again!

Angela was great! She was dependable, reliable, and communicated clearly. My dog, a rescue who can be wary of new people, loved her, which was such a relief. She followed all our instructions and even went above and beyond to wash Rosey's bowl, which we didn't even ask her to do. Angela's fantastic and I wouldn't hesitate to use her again.

Elise was INCREDIBLE! We got married this weekend and were nervous to leave our cats but she exceeded all expectations. She left very detailed reports and provided amazing photos that assured us our cats were well taken care of. We can home to happy kitties! Can’t recommend her enough.

I had Anna watch my golden doodle, Bane, for the past two days, and she was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure Bane was happy, well-fed, and got plenty of playtime and exercise. I truly appreciated her dedication and the extra time she spent with him. overall, it was a five-star experience, and I would highly recommend her!
