Antonia did such a wonderful job watching Apollo. She sent photos and videos. He had a wonderful time and got plenty of exercise playing with her two pups. Highly recommend!!

Doggy Day Care • avr. 26, 2026

I was super anxious about leaving Molly with someone new as my pup is extremely anxious and gets very stressed and our regular sitter is away in collage. Antonia and her husband not only did amazing but they both just have a super calm demeanor that they automatically put me at ease. I knew Molly will be in good hands the minute I met them. Antonia went as far as trimming my pups nails too, which at times I feel are made of concrete. Molly is a bit apprehensive of men and I don't know what kind of magic her hubby did on my dog but she automatically took to him. Clearly the pictures speak a thousand words. The updates were so needed in my case and getting pictures throughout her stay was very appreciated as I am probably more anxious than my dog. Thank you again Antonia for all you have done today.

Antonia was great! Our Benson clearly loved it there. They made him feel right at home during our 3 week vacation. I would highly recommend her for any dog watching needs!

Antonia was awesome with Barkley, taking him into her home like he was a part of her family 😀. She also kept me informed about how he was doing and was very easy to communicate with. Highly recommend her. Barley also running in her big fenced backyard.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is safe, comfortable, and designed with dogs in mind. We have a doggy door leading out to a fully fenced yard for playtime, plus I live just minutes from local parks for walks and enrichment. I also have two friendly, social dogs, so all guests must be comfortable around other dogs.

Pets

A typical day

Mornings begin with breakfast, followed by outdoor time in my fully fenced yard. We have a doggy door, so dogs can move freely between indoors and outdoors for fresh air and potty breaks throughout the day. The day is a balance of play and relaxation—backyard time, toys, or simply lounging inside. On warmer days, I often set up a kiddie pool for safe, supervised fun. You’re always welcome to send your dog’s favorite toys or comforts from home. I provide regular photo and video updates so you can stay connected and see how your dog is settling in and enjoying their stay. Evenings are calm and cozy, with dinner followed by downtime on the couch with TV or a movie, where the dogs are usually snuggled right in with us!

Care Policies & Requirements To ensure a safe and happy environment for all pets in my care, please review the following: Dog-Friendly Requirement: I welcome dogs of all breeds and sizes! However, all dogs must be friendly and comfortable around other dogs, as I have two friendly dogs of my own in the home. Drop-Off & Pick-Up Hours: My standard hours are 8:00 AM – 9:00 PM. Please plan all drop-offs and pick-ups within this window unless discussed in advance. Full-Time Supervision: I am home full-time, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, attention, and care throughout your dog’s stay. Health & Safety: Please inform me ahead of time about any medical conditions, medications, or special needs so I can provide the best care possible.
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.
