Retired Fur Baby Sitters

We are a retired couple that over the past 40 years of marriage have had a Saint Bernard, a boxer, 5 Newfoundland’s, 2 cats , a rescue mix breed and currently a white lab. We LOVE dogs and will offer your precious pooch a safe, fun place to spend time. We treat your dog like they are on vacation. Pups are free to be on our furniture and I offer nutritious natural snacks like blueberries w goat milk. We have a fenced yard with plenty of room to play. Our neutered male dog loves to have playmates and will be a great host. Large breed dogs are our specialty, but we love all dogs. We will send you updates and photos of your fur babies stay with us. We will take good care of your dog and treat it like family. We like to take just one families dog(s) at a time, so you know your fur baby will have the attention they deserve.

Ann and Michael were the first sitters we found on Rover, and we are so grateful to have found them! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our girls for an entire week while we had to travel out of state for family matters. Our girls were very well cared for by Ann and Michael, and we were extremely happy with their home boarding service. They regularly sent us photos and updates, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel confident that our girls were safe, happy, and in good hands. We truly appreciate the love and care they provided and will definitely book with Ann and Michael again in the future. We highly recommend them!

Ann was great. My 3 frenchies are needy and each has their own "quirks". Ann was very understanding of our requests and made sure our kids were well taken care of.

This was my first time using Rover. Ann and Michael were wonderful pet sitters! They sent me photos of Apollo and let me know how he was doing. I had to find accommodations quickly as my previous plans fell through. They were so gracious and understanding. Highly recommend!!!
