Loving, home environment
Pet care experience
I've spent the last several years as a foster for dog rescues and it is my greatest joy in life. I love all dogs and as a foster I have years of experience with all different breeds. I also have a lot of experience working with dogs with special needs, or have medical requirements, including holistic and traditional treatments. Your dogs would join me in my home, receiving all the love and attention they deserve, in a stress free home environment. Not all dogs do well in kennels, and some require more individual attention that I'm able to provide by taking care of a limited number of dogs each day. Your dogs would be joining my own dogs that are highly social and love having dogs visit for play dates. Being a foster, they are very used to sharing their home with visitors and are always up for play time and snuggles. Since your dogs would be in my home, this also provides the opportunity to reinforce training in a home environment. This is especially important for young dogs that are still learning the ropes in a home. (Bonus! Puppy Kisses!!) In addition to caring for your animals as if they are my own, I also offer basic grooming services, including nail trims, baths, ear cleanings and trims. Please ask me about how your dog can enjoy a "spa day" in their home away from home.
Reviews
I highly recommend Beth as a dog sitter! She is very knowledgeable about the care of dogs and is an approved foster home for 2 reputable rescues. The wonderful care, attention and love she has shown my dogs is superb. I am very particular who watches my dogs and I will only leave them with Beth or one other person if I cannot be there. The dogs are properly exercised, supervised, fed and kept clean and safe all the time. She is great with giant breeds and any size dog, and that is difficult to find these days. For me, there is no one better I would want caring for my dogs if I am unable to do so. Large, small, young, senior and special needs, Beth is the person to care for them.
My dogs are my kids and it's very hard for me to leave them, but then I met Beth through a Newfie group and I knew her heart was full with her own dogs and how she felt about them. I left my newfs in her care and she sent me texts and FaceTime so I could see them. They were so happy. She took the time to give them attention and care and made sure they got their food on time ( they're very demanding) lol. Now I have the security of going away and knowing my boys are well cared for and they love Beth too. Their happy tails tell the story. Pet sitting doesn't get better than Beth !

Beth R. first had my black lab Rocket as her first foster dog when he was part of a rescue. They built such a wonderful relationship she continued to watch him for us when we were on vacation or just to babysit. She is amazing with him and always provides top notch care. Rocket was very nervous around people when we first got him but I never had to worry about him with Beth because she was always so patient and she took the time to build his trust. When Rocket would get sad and miss home, Beth would make sure to take him for a walk or special outing and send me pictures to show me what he is up to. I would highly recommend Beth for any dog sitting needs.

Most importantly and for the protection of the client and sitter: It is absolutely imperative that a booking is confirmed before services are rendered. This is to ensure the dog's safety for he/she would be covered by Rover insurance while in the sitter's care. I would not be able to have the dog left with me for a stay or attend your home without officially booking my services through Rover. I would like to see up-to-date vaccination records, as well as know that your dog is on a flea and tick preventative if your dogs stays over my house as well as having a meet and greet to get to know you and your dog before they stay with me. This ensures that you, and your dog are comfortable and happy when you bring them over to stay with me. Eating habits, allergies, and whether the dog has a fear of anything such as people or the occasional loud noise like the doorbell. Your dog will be provided food, water, a comfortable place to rest, and lots of love and attention. I also understand strict feeding preferences and food allergies as my own dog suffers from food allergies. You do not have to bring dog bowls, leashes or dog beds, unless there is something specific you feel would make your pups stay more comfortable. I will take care of all that! I believe is open communication and am picture happy! This means that I’d be more than happy to text you pictures of your pup(s) while they’re here with me.
