About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs my entire life, including my own dogs as well as dogs belonging to neighbors and friends. Over the years, I’ve dog-sat countless times and have plenty of experience making sure dogs are happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether it’s taking them to the park, going on walks, playing outside, or simply spending time giving them love and attention, I genuinely enjoy every minute of it. I’ve always had a special connection with animals, and I like to joke that I’m a bit of a dog whisperer! I seem to attract dogs everywhere I go, and they naturally gravitate toward me. I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and at home. I’m reliable, attentive, and understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. When your dog is in my care, I treat them just like my own, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and care. You can count on me to follow your pet’s routine, respect their individual needs, and keep you updated so you have peace of mind while you’re away. At the end of the day, I want every dog I care for to feel like they’re spending time with a friend, not just a sitter. I can’t wait to meet your pup and give them all the love they deserve! My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets! I have classes on Mondays and Wednesdays from 8:00–8:50 AM and Monday through Thursday from 11:00 AM–12:15 PM, but outside of those times, I’m generally available most days for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and other pet care needs. I’m also happy to accommodate last-minute and same-day requests whenever possible, and I make it a priority to respond to booking requests quickly. I understand that life can get busy and plans can change, so I do my best to be dependable, accommodating, and available whenever your furry family members need some extra love and attention. My priority is always making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I want them to feel right at home, whether that means letting them cuddle up on the couch, relax on the bed, or find their own cozy spot to nap. I’m happy to accommodate each pet’s personality, habits, and usual routines to help them feel as comfortable as possible while their owner is away. At the same time, I take safety very seriously and will always make sure pets are in a secure environment, keep a close eye on them, and avoid situations that could put them at risk. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, respect any house rules or boundaries you have for your pet, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is being treated like my own and is in caring, responsible hands.

About: I had 1 dog for 2 years, and I have very flexible availability. I make sure your dog(s) enjoy their stay and time with me. Dog sitting is my passion. I love dogs. They are so fun to be with and play with. Also, I love to see when dogs wag their tails and lick their tongue out when you give them a treat when you are teaching them a trick and they get it right. My work schedule varies, but I am very flexible with my other job, so I can try my best to work with you and your dog(s) care. I don't have a fenced neighborhood, but I have an extra crate and bed for your dog(s) if they stay with me. My dog is super friendly and loves all other animals.
About: I have always been the biggest animal lover and have an Irish doodle named Jeter! I take my dog on walks everyday and have a lot of experience watching and walking friends and family’s dogs. Having a dog of my own has given me extensive hands on experience with pet care. Daily walks, feeding, playtime, and maintaining a consistent routine are already a natural part of my daily schedule. I genuinely love caring for dogs and prioritize their safety, exercise, and emotional well being everyday. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress free. For overnight stays I provide feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention while keeping your home tidy and secure. During walks and drop ins, I focus on safety, exercise, potty breaks, feeding, and fresh water. I always send updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. Making sure your dog is safe, happy, and well taken care of is my top priority!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Waterford home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Waterford.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Waterford sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
