During the evening and weekends the kids are home and ready to help with potty, play time and feedings. We have a fenced in yard to keep your pup safe. Our dog is left in the family room when we're gone but we have a crate if your pup would feel more secure in that.
About: I’ve been loving and caring for pets since before I was 10 years old. I've always felt a special connection to both cats and dogs and truly love them unconditionally. I have experience with dogs of all ages. My family and I had a small Yorkie who was my best friend growing up. We adopted him when he was a few years old and loved him until he reached 15 years old. Through that experience, I became familiar with the needs of both middle-aged and senior dogs. I also have experience with puppies. When I was in high school, my older sister adopted a Yorkie-Poodle mix, and I helped care for and train her since we lived nearby. I have also pet-sat cats and larger dogs who lived in my neighborhood growing up. When pet sitting, I would feed the animal, play with them, and of course give them lots of pets. I’ve watched and walked bigger breeds like golden retrievers, pitbull-mixes, and poodles, and have no problem with the size of a dog. I understand that dogs and cats at every stage of life need patience, support, encouragement, and above all, love. I would love the opportunity to be your pet's new human friend! I am currently in graduate school online obtaining my MSW. I have classes in the evenings on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. However, the majority of my moring and afternoons are free for me to play and walk your lovely animals. When I come into a client's home, I have the utmost respect for their space. I am there to care for their pet and nothing more. Depending on what the client wants me to do, I will walk the pet, feed them, play with them, give potty breaks, etc., but always maintain the boundaries the client and I have set.

“DJ went above and beyond taking care of my German Shepherd and Cane Corso. They are very energetic dogs, and he handled them with total confidence, care, and genuine affection. He made sure they got their walks, kept them engaged with play, and gave them all the attention they needed while I was away. It’s not easy to find someone who’s both comfortable and experienced with large breeds, but DJ was a perfect match. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for dogs—and complete peace of mind. Highly recommend him for any dog owner, especially those with big breeds!”

He’s very high energy and needs a lot of attention and care with meds/special requests and she was very on top of everything!

Mykola and Aleksandra take amazing care of my elderly little princess (cat). This is the second time I have had them check on her while I am away, and I am so happy with them and their care. The pictures the send in the Rover card are amazing! I highly recommend them!
This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience thanks to Jennifer! She was incredibly communicative and attentive with my cat, who is usually very nonchalant and keeps to himself. The moment he gave her a headbutt during their first meet, I knew she was the perfect fit. Jennifer made me feel at ease while I was away, and I appreciated all the updates and care she provided. She also went above and beyond to help solve a never-ending battle with ants invading my cat’s food, I’m so thankful for her care and dedication. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely caring to look after their pets!
Hailee was WONDERFUL! She met with us prior to booking to make sure it was a great fit, I thought that was a great idea and wanted to do the same. Cooper was very happy! much happier being in his own surroundings and it showed. Hailee was in contact with me often and went above and beyond. I would definitely recommend Hailee for any service Rover has.
Alanna was a true blessing. She helped my mom was in the emergency room with a possible traumatic brain injury. Alanna was able to come to the emergency room and take K.C. (my mothers service dog) for a nice walk and to let him do his business outside. Alanna was prompt to respond, she kept me posted on her status as well as provided me with pictures of K.C. I not only recommend Alanna, but my mom and I will definitely use her services again in the future. Thank Again Alanna! -Trent
