Pet care experience

As a former travel nurse, I depended on Rover quite a bit in the past to provide my pups with safe and caring caregivers while I worked! I know how important it is that your pup is loved and cared for when you can’t be there to do it, and I know the stress and guilt of dropping my pups off somewhere and being worried about whether I made the right decision. I was raised with collies growing up and my parents were truly the best examples of pet parents! I love dogs and will accommodate your dog with whatever his/her needs are. Snuggles all day long? I’ve got them! Just wants to be independent and doesn’t want to be touched? No problem! (I’ve got one like that too). I’m in an online grad program full time, and now only work 4 shifts a month which allows me to be at home most of the time, and my husband works from home a majority of the time so there’s usually some here at all times, however to be a good fit your pup must be okay with being left alone for about 4 hours (whether that’s in a crate or outside of a crate is up to you!) We have a fenced backyard and supervise them outside at all times. At night the dogs are free to rest in our room or in another space if you prefer. We have multiple bedrooms that aren’t in use every night so if your pup requires privacy we can do that too. I also love taking pics, since I know how fun and reassuring it is to receive those myself!

We love Cassandra so much! She takes such good care of Lincoln and he is so happy when we drop him off and pick him up! He even knows when we’re turning on her street where he is going! Thanks so much for loving our pup while we’re away!

Cassandra is seriously the best! Our dog is a bit apprehensive of people in general, but she actually gets excited when we pull up to Cassandra’s now! We trust her 100% with our pup.

Information Cassandra C. would like to know about your pet

Up to date on vaccines is a must! No exceptions! This is to protect both my pups and yours! What kind of energy level does your dog have? Are they friendly with other dogs? Have they ever been away from you before?

A typical day

Your pups have free reign of our home and fenced backyard as long as they’re not destructive and play nicely! We also have plenty of toys, so we discourage you from bringing your own because my pups are thieves and may hide them somewhere!

Availability

We are usually pretty flexible and our schedule could vary by the booking, but our earliest time for drop off is 8:30 am. Anything earlier than that warrants a booking starting the night before! The latest time we are typically available for pick up is 10:30pm. This is the absolute latest so if you are running late no worries, let us know and we’ll extend the booking to the following morning but we don’t allow pick ups after this. **We have no set pickup/ drops off times in that 8:30am-10:30pm time range, however after doing this for a while we’ve learned that your pup will do a lot better here if they’re getting used to our home for at least a few hours before bedtime, so dropping them off by mid afternoon is really best for the first night! If you drop your pup off at night they tend to be a lot more anxious, plus our pups bark a lot and get so excited when someone new comes for the first 30 minutes or so, so as a courtesy to our neighbors we encourage people to not drop pups off later in the night if it can be helped!
