About: I have a small pet sitting business outside of rover as well & I care for lots of different animals. I love meeting new animals and working with them, my dog Luna is very sweet and has made lots of friends from these visits. I work from home, so there’s always someone here to provide attention and care for all animals during their stay, I can provide all day care for your pets needs! All animals are allowed in any part of my home. I am comfortable in administrating medications. We have a fenced in yard for them to run and play and can offer separated potty areas or walks.
“Wanda and Steve are FABULOUS! I have 5 dogs and they all love them. Great communication. Take great care of my home too. Watered plants and I have a ton. So nice to come home to happy dogs, a clean house and plants alive and well in 90+degree temperatures. I couldn't be more pleased.”

“We love when Aelish stays with our dogs. She worked hard to (successfully!) earn the trust of our anxious/timid boy and seems to be loved by our high energy girl. She also left our home cleaner than we left it! She’s our go-to when we have to travel.”

“Brendle was delightful and our 2 dogs had the best time with her. She hung out with them for 5 hours while we went to watch our son’s championship game.
