A pair hired a young puppy sitter to supervise little Lucy. Video recorded in the home shows the lady taking the small dog and slamming her to the floor.

The couple obtained a motion alert from their home security camera on their phone. In real time, the husband had the ability to yell at the woman and inform her to leave.

She did and said sorry. Animal Control is currently looking into the case.

Thankfully, Lucy was looked into and will be okay. However Lucy’s owners were shocked at the case.

” It’s heartbreaking because the factor we use a pet sitter is since we love our pet and we don’t wish to leave her ignored for long since she is a baby,” said Amanda Roy. “So we trusted somebody to find into our home and care for a pet that we consider a family member.”

The puppy sitter was employed through the Rover app. Upon learning of the circumstance, the business provided this response:

” The task depicted in this video is shocking and appalling. We have completely deactivated this sitter from our platform and will certainly remain to investigate. Any incident of this nature is very uncommon on our platform, and we take it extremely seriously. Additionally, we have actually offered to pay for any veterinary costs that may have been incurred as a result of this incident. We have been helping local law enforcement with their investigation and will remain to offer support.”
