High-Energy Fun & Attentive Care

I have been the "go-to" dog sitter for my circle of friends for years, and I’ve realized that the only thing better than having one dog in the house is having two (or three if you have a pair of pups!). I’m opening up my home to Rover guests primarily to provide some social fun for my own dog, Ripley. Ripley is a high-energy ball of joy who loves to play, so if you have a dog that never seems to tire out, they’ll find a kindred spirit here. Whether it's rounds of fetch, wrestling in the yard, or just having a buddy to nap with, your dog will be integrated into our daily routine. What to Expect: • Individualized Attention: Because I only sit 1 family’s dogs at a time, your dogs will get plenty of attention! • Active Days: We specialize in high-energy play. If your dog loves to move, they’ll come home happy and exhausted. • A Present Sitter: I work from home so your dogs will have plenty of face time with me! All dogs with an easy going temperament that are ready to play are welcome.

For the last several days Ben took care of our chocolate lab, Gracie, He did an outstanding job! She came home healthy, happy and wonderfully tired. She clearly enjoyed her time with Ben and his dog. We appreciated all the updates and photos. We will be using Ben again and very soon!

Ben took great care of our dog! He was responsive and attentive to care instructions, and went above and beyond caring for her during bad weather while we were gone. Would definately use again!

Benjamin has watched my dog while I’ve been out of town many times over the years. He has always been very responsive and taken great care of Jules. His dog, Ripley, is also very nice and always plays with my dog.

Schedule

I work from home so your dogs will get plenty of belly rubs and play time. I typically give Ripley a long walk (3 miles) after work that your pup is welcome to join or we can just stick to outdoor play time.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog that would love to play outside with your pup. I will send you daily updates and photos. I am happy to accommodate crate-trained dogs (bring your own crate) or dogs that roam a little bit more free (provided they don’t have destructive tendencies😂). I am a bit of a toasty sleeper so unfortunately no dogs in the bed, but they are welcome to sleep at the foot of my bed or anywhere else in the house!
