Pup’s East Sac home away from home

Pet care experience

We are an East Sac family. My husband doesn’t want another dog, so we just borrow them from others. We have one 25-lb. female sharpei/ dachshund mix (you have to see her to believe her!) and two children. Our pup Willa is friendly with all dogs, but prefers someone about her size. Some of her favorite friends are chihuahuas! Someone is usually home, but for times when we are not, we have a medium-sized doggie door with direct access to a large, fenced back yard. The kids love helping to feed, walk, play with and especially snuggle our furry visitors. Bonus points for any dog who likes to sleep on or in a kid bed! We will be happy to send you daily texts or emails with updates and photos. We can host 2 dogs from the same household as long as they get along well with others and won't gang up on our Willa, who is very submissive. If you think your dog would enjoy a stay with us, please contact me to arrange a meet-up to make sure our pups are compatible. Why I love dog sitting I grew up with dogs and have rarely not had a dog. For over a decade, we were the proud owners of a pack of 3 dogs totaling almost 300 lbs! Meet my pets Willa, our 3 yr old female sharpei/ dachshund rescue. She's never met a dog she didn't like! About my yard Fenced, escape-proof, large backyard to run and play. My experience administering medication It depends. Not a shot but pills are fine.

Caren was absolutely amazing with our puppy, Leo. Great communication and would be happy to have her watch our little one again! Thank you!

Thank you for taking care of my girl! Your whole family was incredibly loving to her. Plus your home and yard worked out perfectly.

Caren knows how to care for dogs. From the meet and greet, to pickup day - my furbaby was very comfortable with all aspects of Caren"s home and family. I had plenty of pictures throughout to relieve my mind and relax and enjoy my trip. Highly recommend!

We have recently found Caren on Rover and are very happy we reached out! She is very quick to answer any questions, sends lots of updates throughout my dog’s stay and definitely put my mind at ease. I really appreciated that she wanted her dog to meet my dog outside, as that means she knew exactly what she was doing as a dog sitter, which was a major bonus for us. Having experience working with dogs, her demeanor and questions that she was asking were exactly what someone who knew what she was doing would be asking. I highly recommend Caren. My dog says all four paws up!

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks We usually do a couple of short daily walks around the neighborhood. Your dog's sleeping arrangement That's up to your pup. Bring their bed if you like, or they can sleep on ours or the couch... or even snuggle up with a kid! Time I'll spend with your dog Someone is usually home. We usually do a couple of short walks each day. And our girl Willa will be a constant companion and has yet to meet a Rover friend whom she doesn't instantly fall in love with.
