About: I’ve had numerous dogs over the years and all have been loved and well cared for. I love playing with them and giving them lots of attention. Living in the country allows me to feel certain the dogs under my care are safe and happy. They will usually enjoy a quiet, comfortable setting inside while I am away and will get exercise and fresh air in a fenced area for at least 2-3 hours daily depending on weather and my schedule. Dogs will be inside most of the time and in a fenced area or leashed for a walk for potty breaks and outside time. Will be safe inside when alone.

“Ashtin was an amazing host for our pup! She was accommodating, responsive, and we loved getting the picture updates. Tuck had a blast running around in her backyard and came home a happy, tired pup. We would definitely book with her again!”

Austin dog parents share their Rover experiences
I highly recommend..... my dog Blanca 🐕 was very well taken care of. I received pictures and updates on her stay. She enjoyed it so much she loved interacting with the other dogs and cats. When she was picked up she tried to go back in the house wining lol.

AN ABSOLUTE GEM💗 when my parents came to visit from out of state and needed a dogger sitter for a quick getaway they used Shannon. Then they recommended her to us for our first time to use Rover. I am so glad we did and now I don’t have to stress anytime I need a doggy sitter, that is unless Shannon is unavailable. She is incredibly flexible. And her family loves the fur babies like her own! I’m so thankful to have used her. I highly recommend!
