“Amy watched my dogs for the weekend. She sent updates and pictures, which were greatly appreciated. My house was spotless and the dogs were happy when I got home. I definitely recommend Amy and would love to have her watch my dogs again!”
“I have a difficult time with leaving my animals behind when I travel but she did a great job and my animals did great with her, especially my dog. More than happy to have her as a sitter again!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals just about my whole life. I’ve taken care of cats & dogs from the puppy/kitten stage all the way to senior. I have taken care of my friends and family’s pets as well and id love to meet and care for yours too :) I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter. I’ve been trying to do Rover full-time this year. It’s been great, but life is changing and I will mostly be doing just house sitting from now on. But you can always ask me if your dog needs to be walked or cats checked on, cause there’s a chance I could make it work. I’m mostly available in the afternoon & evenings. Right now I am looking for another job but I love being around animals so I still want to do jobs for rover when I can :) I currently have a cat at home. And I take care of my family’s dogs whenever they need it. I also volunteer with animals. . I try to spend as much time with animals as I can.
