About: Hello Rover friends, I am officially a Rover sitter. To all who know me the animal kingdom has been my world ever since I was a little girl. I guarantee your pet will have a forever friend and unconditional love. They are always priority when they are with me. What truly sets me apart is the depth of my hands-on experience and dedication to animal welfare. For over 30 years, I’ve been actively involved with rescue organizations—fostering dogs, volunteering at adoption events, and conducting home inspections to ensure safe placements. I also work closely with shelters to evaluate a dog’s behavior and temperament, helping rescues understand which environments each dog will thrive in. One of the most rewarding experiences of my life was raising orphaned newborn puppies—feeding them around the clock, keeping them warm, and nurturing them into strong, healthy companions. That level of care, patience, and love is something I bring to every animal I look after. I specialize in:    •   🍼 Newborn & orphaned puppy care    •   🐾 Puppy training support * Animal CPR    •   🐶 Senior pet care    •   🐕 Rescue & trauma-informed handling    •   💊 Medication administration (oral/topical)    •   🐈 Cat care & companionship    •   🐴 Comfortable around horses    •   🏠 Multi-pet household management    •   📋 Shelter temperament assessments & home checks Every pet has a story, and I’m here to be the calm, loving chapter when you can’t be there. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it’s what I truly love to do! I structure my days around the animals I care for, whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. I have dedicated my life volunteering in Animal Welfare. I like to consider myself as the neighborhood dog whisper. There hasn't been a dog that I cant handle. With my flexible schedule and home-based work, I’m able to be fully available for your pet’s needs throughout the day and night. I’m available weekdays and weekends, including holidays, and I can accommodate a wide range of routines—whether your pet is high-energy and active or needs calm, consistent care. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I treat them like family and ensure they’re comfortable, secure, and loved every step of the way. In your home, I respect your space and routines. I carefully follow your instructions, maintain your pet’s feeding, walking, and medication schedules, and provide updates so you feel confident and informed while you’re away. I also understand how to read animal behavior, especially in rescue or sensitive pets, so I approach every situation calmly and with care. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, pet-friendly environment. I keep a clean, safe space with no hazards or stressors, and I always monitor interactions closely. I never leave pets unattended outside, and I make sure each animal has their own space to rest, relax, and feel at home. With over 30 years of hands-on experience—including rescue fostering, behavior assessments, and newborn puppy care—I provide a loving, trustworthy, and safe experience every time.

About: I’ve worked at a human society for over a year taking care of dogs by walking/ playing with them. I’ve also had dogs of my own throughout my whole life and know how to care with them in high stress situations. I’m available at all times of the day any day to serve your pet. Weekends also work well. I will work with the owner to find what works best. I will care for your pets in your home by playing with them, refreshing water food when needed, and walking as much as you’d like.
