About: I have been taking care of dogs for 6 years and I'm excited to continue my pet sitting journey on rover. I look forward to meeting your dog and treating them like part of the family! I am available any day of the week between the hours of 8 am and 5 pm however, these hours are flexible especially for doggy day care. I have a large yard with a 100ft dog runner. However if you or your dog are uncomfortable with the runner let me know and I can leash for bathroom breaks instead.

Patrick and Susan provide a 10/10 service. They took our dogs on fun walks every day. Took plenty of photos to send with comprehensive daily updates. They treated our dogs like their own and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for pet services. We would trust them again in the future without hesitation

Wonderful experience with this team. Definately would plan to work with them again. Thoughtful and sweet. My pouch enjoyed his time with them and they were very responsive. Loved getting pics of my pouch while he stayed with them.

Our first encounter with Karen was very calm and she was super sweet. Remi warmed up to her almost immediately. It was a last minute booking and she was able to accommodate a meetup before the actual boarding which I appreciated. She kept us updated with photo and videos of Remi throughout the day. That alone gave me a peace of mind. Overall very pleased and would love to rebook again in the future.

Kristen was AMAZING! She was so thoughtful in caring for our precious dog Islay over a holiday weekend. She was extremely responsive and sent daily updates too. She truly gave us peace of mind so we could enjoy our trip. No doubt Islay loved spending time with Kristen’s family!! We were so blessed to have found her and will definitely be using her again in the future.

I recently had the pleasure of hiring Sherry to take care of my Stella, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience! From the moment I met Sherry, it was evident that she had a genuine love for dogs and a deep understanding of their needs. Sherry went above and beyond to ensure that Stella felt comfortable and at ease during her overnight/next-day stay. Sherry kept me updated with photos and videos, which made me feel connected and reassured that Stella was in great hands. Stella is not an easy pup to win over, but somehow Sherry did just this! I cannot recommend Sherry enough to anyone in need of a dog sitter. She is not just a caretaker but a true dog lover who treats your furry family member(s) as if they were her own. If you're looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy to take care of your beloved pet, look no further than Sherry! She exceeded my expectations in every way, and I will definitely be calling on her again in the future. Thank you again Sherry for providing my Stella with a home away from home!

Our puppy received the most loving care from Erica & Thomas (and their kids!). We went away on vacation knowing he was in the best hands possible, allowing us to feel secure knowing he was happy and healthy. We received daily updates/pictures with any issues, which we deeply appreciated. We will continue to use them for care for our puppy in the future!

Sean and Jill were great with Jack. They clearly knew how to take care of senior dogs, and went above and beyond to make sure Jack got comfortable with them since this was the first time they had him, and kept me in the loop with how he was doing. Would definitely rebook with them.

Elise was great at communication taking our 21 week old puppy for a few days while we were away. Our dog has separation anxiety and not crate trained which Elise was great with. At the end she gave us some tips and suggestions to help with our puppies situations and we are looking forward to using her again.

Loved Jennifer! She was awesome and met me in the park to introduce Cooper to some of the other dogs she was currently watching prior to the stay. She gave regular updates and did a great job with socializing Cooper with other dogs. She is a great photographer and put together an album of the week. Loved her and wouldn’t use any other sitter!

Andrea was absolutely amazing! She was friendly, professional, and went above and beyond to make sure our pup, Scooby, felt comfortable and happy during his stay. We loved receiving the regular updates with pictures and videos, it gave us such peace of mind while we were away. To top it off, she even gifted Scooby the cutest goodie bag when we picked him up! I highly recommend Andrea and will definitely trust her to watch Scooby again in the future.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Growing up, my mother was (and still is) a doggy foster mom for our local shelter. We constantly had 4-6 dogs in our home, most of which ended up staying long term. I have years of experience caring for multiple dogs and senior care as well! I work completely from home which will allow me plenty of time to attend to your pups needs all throughout the day. I love to jog and hike, so your pup will be sure to get plenty of exercise and outdoor time with me! I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment for every pet in my care. Working from home allows plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. While I do not have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised and dogs will always be kept safely leashed. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, feeding schedule, crate preferences, and any special care instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure.”
