“Garrah was absolutely wonderful with my dog! From the moment he got there she treated him with love and kindness. She made him feel extremely comfortable, and I can tell he had a wonderful time because he slept like a rock when he got home!”
“Gabrielle took great care of our dog, Foxy. We received updates and pictures throughout the weekend. With the beautiful weather, Foxy got to go on a long walk and to the Vet's Home. We will definitely be utilizing Gabrielle's service again.”
“Alexis made our pups feel right at home! She got to know our two pups very quickly and provided updates and pictures throughout the stay. She was also very accommodating to our travel schedule. We are looking forward to future stays with Alexis!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, of all sizes and all breeds. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs and the level of care and compassion they require. I’ll love and care for your pets like they are my own! I have a full-time job, but with flexible hours. I walk my dogs daily, so getting your pets outside will be no problem. I am available throughout the day for potty breaks, check-ins, and snuggles as needed! I have a fenced in yard and two small dogs who are playful and would love to keep your pet company. Dogs in my home are allowed on all furniture and get as many treats and belly rubs as required. I’ll never shy away from snuggling your pet if that’s their jam! Pets who like their personal space are also welcome.
About: I’ve had pets since I was a child and been the one to care and mantain them. I’ve trained 2 puppies who were potty trained and knew commands. I’ve administered flea medicine. I am currently doing GrubHub and I would create my schedule around my rover schedule so I could be home as much as possible. I would prefer when not boarding at my home, to be doing Rover related activities during the day and GrubHub at night. While doing GrubHub I would be able to make stops to take pets on walks or to potty or to just say hi! I have an extremely large backyard and I also go on daily runs and house members who love animals with lots of love to give! I’m currently just doing Grub Hub and I make my own schedule and could base it around my Rover Schedule no problem, although I do require working Grub Hub from 5-11 Friday’s and Saturday’s but would still be able to drop ins! I have a huge unfenced in yard so a tether would be required but would have lots of room to run! Daily runs and lots of love!!
About: I have two dogs of my own, who LOVE friends. Trust me your dog will be wore out and ready for cuddles when you get home. I cannot accept cats, even though I love them, my beagle will try and track them and I don’t think they will have fun. I do have outside cats that I take care of, but if your dog does not get along with them, I can keep them away. I live in the country, so I have a HUGE yard, but it is not fenced in. I’m currently home most days, so dogs will not be kenneled for long periods. Outside breaks every hour to two hours when I am home. You fur baby will never be lonely at our house. My two dogs will love to play and I have a giant couch for cuddles! I will send updates and pictures!
