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-

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!

Our little senior doxie, Rocky, spent 2 weeks with Barbara and we couldn’t be more happy with how it went! Barbara gave him lots of love and cuddles, and they spent some time watching Dodger baseball together. Rocky can’t wait for the next time he can spend time with Barbara 😊
