Animal lovers happy to help

Pet care experience

My love of dogs started when I was an infant. My Mom loves to talk about how our dog, Aspen and I were inseparable. I will never spend a moment of life without a dog of my own. The only time I ever have was the (agonizing) time of my college and apartment days! My husband, Steven and I have had our Gaia dog since she was 6 months old and she is now 8. We don't have kids yet but Gaia is absolutely our baby. We'd love to bring her to meet your dog if your pup would like to have a playmate. Steven and I have been working through Rover for 7 years and we moved to Montrose 2 years ago. Brooke is the primary rover worker and sometimes Steven helps out. Steven usually stays for overnights at homes while I take care of our pup at home. We feel honored to be entrusted caring for your furry friends. I love being able to give dogs that important time outside while their best friends are at work and to minimize the anxiety that we know too well about leaving them home alone. Over the years, our clients have relied on us to walk, feed, and take care of their pets while they work or go on vacation. If you need any other help with anything like nail trims or a stop at the pet store while you are away, I am happy to help, if I can! Once we have the space, we will be happy to board your dog overnight but currently we are living (and working) in our new studio style house saving up to add on our bedroom wing. Overnights could be a possibility in certain circumstances and with certain dogs (very little barking). We sometimes are able to stay at your home if you are going out of town and we often do drop ins for dogs multiple times a day at their own home. We are experienced gardeners so we can take care of your garden in the summer. We are usually available during morning, night and early afternoon hours for walks. Exact timing will depend on the number of clients we have already to fit in during those hours and if we have taken any other gig work during the time frame. Let us know how flexible you are and a range of hours that would work for your pup and we will let you know if we can make it happen! I am the most flexible with my schedule. Steven has a lot of half hour+ breaks throughout the day with only 4 to 6 hours of online work total most days so if he stays at your house, he can play/walk with the pups during his many breaks. Most of our work is online so if you have good enough internet speeds one of us (or two of us and our dog!) will be able to stay at your house nearly the entire time. We do have farm animals to care for at home but we have friends nearby who can help us care for them when we go away (sometimes through rover for work!) I pay special attention to detail and go through checklists multiple times so that I won't forget anything that is asked of me. If you notice me through your ring checking the door being locked multiple times, that is what I always do inside as well. I have a little OCD, but I am keeping it under control. I often go over my scheduled time span just to double check everything. At our house, we have a fenced in yard and a very friendly dog that loves to play. We decided not to have any gates for our fence because in the past, city workers and others would leave the gates open, and even though we live in a more rural area now, we live by the highway and didn't want to take that risk. We do not have buried fencing yet so if we need to watch at all times for digging, definitely let us know and we will!

Information Brooke & Steven V. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if they are aggressive in any way. Are there any health concerns I should know about? If they come to our house for the day, I need to know if they are diggers as our fence does not have buried fencing yet. We plan to install that but havent yet.

A typical day

We love to take our dog on walks on the many trails around town. On our days off, we love to take our dog on hikes and we would be happy to take your dog with us!
