Pet care experience

It’s only & always about the dog

I have experience with senior dogs-monitoring diet- food intake- etc- walking daily on leash-play time with younger dogs- a calm and loving home to share with fur friends. I have taken care of friends dogs and someone told me about Rover. my beloved dog Max died last summer- not ready to adopt another- but miss a dog’s companionship - a warm and soft bundle next to me at night when I sleep. My way of welcoming a dog is to talk to the dog- which reassures them that Aunt Barb will take good care of them. I live in a quiet safe neighborhood-

Barbara did a tremendous job taking care of my dog Luna while I was away for a weekend. She’s very friendly, and you can tell she truly loves dogs. She’s a great dog sitter!

We left our girl with Barbara for the first time since we adopted her. Barbara took such great care of her. She is so kind and a loving dog person. Biscuit was sad to leave when we came to pick her up.

Amstel had a great visit with Barbara and really loved her sunny outdoor space. She took great care of him, and I appreciate her flexibility and responsiveness when coordinating drop-off and pick-up. Overall, she's lovely, and I would definitely ask her to look after him again/recommend her to others!
