Recently retired dog lover

Pet care experience

I LIVE IN ILLINOIS. As of Sept. 2023, I now have a fenced yard. I’ve raised 3 wonderful labs in the last 30 years and currently spoil my grandpup, a rescue terrier. Prior to Rover, for two years I shared dog sitting jobs with my daughter, providing plenty of exercise, attention, and love, in a safe environment. JEFFERSON COUNTY Residents - I live across the Mississippi River in rural Monroe County, Illinois. I’m 33 miles from Barnhart, despite what Rover indicates.

Bernie was wonderful. Great to Chloe, kept me informed while I was gone. Great photos/videos of my furry kid. I could not have asked for anymore. I don't travel often, however when I do travel again Bernie is at the top of my list.

Bernie is the best! We are a repeat customer and I have always trusted her with our Teddy Bear. She does an excellent job watching over him.

Bernie was so wonderful with our Teddy, while we were away for a week! She was attentive and personable, sent pics and/or videos everyday, and I have all the confidence Teddy was well taken care of.

I recently retired after 34 years in a professional field. My schedule is open and flexible. Keeping active is important to me, so I expect your dog will be zonked out the first day back after a visit to my house.
