Ratings and reviews
Barbara & her husband Tim were awesome hosts for my furry toddler, Zeke. My dog is 13 years old & does not do well with change but he was completely comfortable during his stay with Barbara. She was so loving towards Zeke which helped him to feel right at home. I really loved that she only host one pet at a time. It gave her & Zeke time to get to know each other. Barbara was so accommodating with the times & schedule. I am truly appreciative of how she helped to lessen my worries as I moved my son into his first college apartment out of state. I know for sure I will be using her services again very soon.
Barbara was wonderful with Mocha! She was very flexible, and my fur baby was so happy to see her. I always feel completely comfortable leaving Mocha in her care because I know he will be well taken care of. It’s such a relief knowing he’s happy, loved, and in great hands. I highly recommend Barbara to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!
Barbara took wonderful care of Daisy on the worst possible weekend: 4th of July. Daisy is terribly afraid of fireworks, but Barbara kept her calm and cared for her perfectly. Barbara sent updates with pictures, and our minds were completely at ease.
This was our first time using Rover and I'm so glad it brought us to Barbara and her husband. Excellent communication from the first message I sent through the app, to setting up a meet and greet, to her sending the best pictures of our pup during the stay. I would highly recommend Barbara to anyone! Her services are second to none!
Barbara was wonderful! We had an amazing experience with a recent overnight stay! Our Jack Russell terrier can be anxious and a bit high maintenance, but she was incredibly patient, loving, and attentive. She took great care of him, worked with him on walks, and even let him sleep with her to keep him comfortable. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup—she’s truly a phenomenal sitter!
Such sweet people, felt so lucky to find a wonderful home for Daisy!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I do not have any pets of my own. I lost my precious kitty last year and am not ready to add a new pet to my home. I do however have 3 grand kitties and 3 granddogs that I take care of and walk. As a caregiver to your pet I can provide focused attention to your pet. I do not have a fenced yard but am ready, willing and able to provide excellent walks for your pet.
A typical day
I love to interact with dogs. Playing their favorite games with their favorite toys makes both of us happy. If course I will provide high quality walks to keep your pet stimulated.
