Doggy Day Care • Dec 19, 2025

Barbara is great - sweet, caring, laid back, and seems to know exactly what each dog needs at any point. Very glad to have found her

Barbara is great! Jasper is a big bouncy boy and she made him right at home. She knows her dogs and we would highly recommend!

Barbara was really helpful, short notice and super friendly. Followed all of my Type A instructions and was very responsive!

Doggy Day Care • Oct 31, 2025

I didn't know if our 11 week old puppy Moose would settle in another house and without our other dog for familiarity but he was fine with Barbara and she even took him out to a coffee shop where he got some socialisation so we couldn't be happier.

A great service from Barbra. My dog had a great time staying with her for the week. Great communication. Will certainly book again

Our chihuahua, Atlas, stayed for a week and we couldn’t be happier with the care he received! From the moment we dropped him off, we felt confident he was in good hands. We were kept updated with photos and messages, which really helped us relax while we were away. Atlas can be a bit timid at first, but he settled in so well and clearly felt comfortable and loved. 🐶💕 He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well looked after. We’re so grateful for the warm, attentive care he enjoyed during his stay and we will book Barbara in the future again.

Schedule

I work from home most days and live in close proximity to two parks. Lunchtime and morning walks with a four legged friend would be a possibility.

Safety, trust & environment

Each pet is different and I’ve cared for those with a nervous disposition as well as those who love care and attention. To me, pets are a part of the family and should be treated as such!

A typical day

I love to walk and am very lucky to live in close proximity to Victoria, Thomsons and Bute Park. I also love venturing out to beaches when it’s off-season so my pals can have a good run and chase a ball.

Barbara can host up to 1 pet per night
I prefer to meet pets/owners before sitting for the first time. It’s important to know of any special diet, feeding times, energy levels and understand their disposition.
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.
