I will love your dog like my own

Pet care experience

I provide dog sitting services in my home. I am a regular dog sitter for many of my friends and family. I have a 15-year-old toy fox terrier who gets along with all dogs. We also have a 3-year-old lab mix who is very well socialized and loves new friends to play with. You are welcome to bring your dog for a meet and greet. My husband and I love dogs and would love to give your fur baby some extra love and care while you are on vacation and allow them to have their own vacation with us. I have several references and would be happy to provide them to you. We have a fenced in back yard with a doggy door to the back yard. Most dogs catch on quickly and are able to get in and out as they wish. We have a camp that we spend a lot of time at during the summer months. We love to let the dogs swim and play and take them for boat rides. I also foster dogs through UPAWS and Paws to the North Dog Rescue, and the Women's Center and have cleared the background check for these organizations.

Brenda is an excellent person to have pet sit your pet. She really understands animals (in my case my dog Bella) to the greatest extent. She is very concerned about your pet as if it was her own. She walked Bella quite often similar to the way I usually do so Bella felt just like she was at home. She sent us pictures often so we could see how Bella was doing. We have had Brenda sit Bella in the past and highly recommend her to sit your pet too !

Brenda is the best! I highly recommend her! This is our second time using her and will definitely be booking her again when we need a sitter! She sends updates and pictures regularly. We know that Hank is comfortable there and very well cared for. Thank you Brenda!

Brenda is wonderful! She watched my 6 month old dog along with her dogs. Ellie came back happy and calm. I think she misses Brenda already! Plus Brenda sent pictures which was great!

Brenda was great to work with. This was the first time we had used Rover and she made it very easy. She was very flexible with our schedule. Our dog seemed very contented when we picked her up. We will definitely use her again.

Information Brenda L. would like to know about your pet

I like to have a glimpse of what your dog's day looks like - feeding schedules, exercise schedules, etc. I will do my best to keep them on their regular schedule and be sure we give them their own vacation.

A typical day

Most of the time the dogs play in the yard. I will walk them; however, they usually get plenty of exercise playing. We sometimes bring the dogs to camp during the week to run and swim if they are good off leash.
