About: Growing up we had a dog and a cat, then as an adult, I was a hoomin owned by three cats. I've since chosen a hoomin partner who is very allergic to animals, so I get my animal lovies and playtime in with other folks' animals. I excel at being able to bond with animals and meet them where they are (not where I want them to be). I look forward to being a partner with you, in the care, maintenance, and love of your favorite fur-kid(s)!! Additional note: I am insured via Pet Care Insurance for pet care, pet walking, and home services. I am a non-traditional/contract worker with a lot of flexibility. I prefer to work within a ten mile radius of the Mill Run area of Hilliard, but willing to travel to help out with your fur-kids and homes. Fresh air and sunshine is ideal for all creatures, especially our furry friends and I love to explore the out of doors with happy animals and friends. That said, I also love to have some playtime with fur kids to expand their horizons and provide active brain time for them.

About: You can trust me with your fur baby. I've been caring for dogs and cats for over 15 years. That's not just experience, it's a relationship with animals that I've built slowly and gladly. At home, I have a one-year-old cat who matches whatever energy the day brings. She's curious, playful, and always exploring. If you want adventure, she'll hike beside you. If you want stillness, she'll curl up while you read. She reminds me every day that the best care isn't just about feeding and walking. It's about presence. Being there. Really being there. That's what I offer your pet. Full love. Full attention. Just as anyone wants to be. They're not just a pet, they're also independent creature that we should all co-exist with.

I am also comfortable taking them with me, to parks, to the grocery store, to a cafe etc. I can provide boarding throughout the week so long as I have a heads up notice beforehand.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Watkins. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
