Where your dog's like family

We are now accepting new clients! **Please note dogs who have not been in the home before must have a meet and greet before we can formally accept a booking request.** We cannot take same-day bookings for new clients. I own a home across from the Keystone Trail and have a large yard for playing with a four foot fence. I have a German Wirehaired Pointer (we think!) mix, Loki, who is well socialized and LOVES to play. I've owned and cared for dogs the last 22 years. I also work for myself and mostly from home, so I'm able to adjust my schedule to accommodate most of your dog's needs. I'm a laid back owner who treats dogs as a part of the family. There are no house restrictions in rooms of the house or with furniture except for a child's bedroom. I will work to accommodate your dog's typical schedule and rules. I have an experienced dog trainer in the family should I ever need to call upon them with an issue. Your dog and Loki will be separated while we are out of the home to prevent any playful accidents. I'm used to managing medications and post-surgical medical precautions with my own dog, so if you have someone a little more complex it shouldn't be a problem. Loki is slowing down in his older age, but is still tolerant around playful pups (and plays in short bursts when he can). He and my preschooler have been a dog sitting with me all his life, so Loki's a great ambassador dog and my child is a loving helper with great dog manners. Please contact us as early as possible to make schedule a meet-and-greet!

Alicia and Seth were great. My dog is a high energy guy, but had a great stay with them. I think he enjoyed playing with their dog Loki.

Alicia and Seth are the best! They have always been very accommodating. They are very good with updates and put our mind at ease every single time.

Alicia and Seth took such great care of our dog Stella while we were away. They were both very knowledgeable about the care of animals. Stella loved being around their dog Loki. We will definitely have them care for Stella again. John and Cindy

Lady apparently had a great time! She was pooped when she got home. Alisha and Seth did a great job

I work from home so can accommodate most pet schedules. Loki is here half the week, so your dog will be the only pet in the home at some times.

We love playing with new friends! Loki plays when he can (he's getting older) and we have a variety of toys to share in the backyard.

Dogs over 1 year old
Unspayed females accepted, neutered males only
No females in heat
Takes only 1 client at a time

Please let me know in advance if your dog has any specific needs or behaviors so we can assess together if this is going to be a safe fit. Loki is afraid of German Shepherds, so a meet and greet is non negotiable if this is your dog's primary breed.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
