“Judy was great about sending pictures daily and putting us at ease. The house was clean when we came home. We would definitely use Judy again. She was easy to communicate with. Much better then sitters I have used in the past that were not on Rover.”
“Ben’s service to our dog and our family was top-notch. He was prompt for the meet and greet meeting, he messaged ahead on the day of the booking to see if there was anything that needed changed. He went above and beyond with watching our dog: taking her for a walk and playtime in the backyard. He texted us photos and even a concern about a skin blemish with our dog. He cleaned up very well after himself, even laundering our guest bedroom bedding. We recommend his services to anyone who has need. And we will definitely be booking him again.”

About: I’m a born and raised city girl that wanted to be raised on a farm. Instead of cows and horses, I have 3 cats, and a 7 year old Golden Retriever. I worked as an EMT and I now work as a home based travel agent. We have lots of love to give. Animals are my passion. Boarding your dog at my house is way better than a kennel. Dogs that stay with me get full use of the house. Give me a call! You won’t regret it! *Dogs must be up to date on rabies vaccine and flea prevention. Meet and greet before stay is recommended. Additional surcharge applies for special needs dogs (puppies, elderly dogs that need extra attention or medication administration). *I do not accept any aggressive dogs or full grown dogs that are not house trained or who mark in the house. Owners are responsible for damages due to destructive dogs. I currently work from home and hang out with my dog and cats. I have a fenced in yard and can let dogs out frequently. We love playing in the yard and cuddles on the couch! My Golden Retriever is also a friendly pup that will keep your fur baby company when I go out for errands.

“Sarah went above and beyond when taking care of my pets for a weekend.
