Pet care experience

Your dog will get lots of attention

I have been working with dogs since 2007 when I adopted my first dog. I mainly work from home so the dogs will be able to go in and out as much as they like. I also have several fenced porches in case your dogs like to hang out outside. My schedule is very flexible and I don't know from day to day what that will bring. There are occasions that I will need to go out for work so all dogs must be ok staying alone in my home for several hours. In any case, they will get lots of play and walks. My current dog, Noah, has a lot of young energy. Come stay with us.

Cheryl was proactive to my dog’s needs and kept me informed of how things were going. He also made a new friend.

Betty had a great time staying with Cheryl! Drop off and pick up were easy, and she did a great job keeping me updated on all the fun they were having.

Cheryl has repeatedly taken really excellent care of our dog! She is so thoughtful about the dogs she cares for and their needs for a good stay. She also saved me at the last minute when my other dog care arrangements fell through.

Excellent care of our baby girly while we were away, and it was great for our baby to have a friend in Noah, Cheryl’s dog. Appreciate the updates as well! Thank you, Cheryl!

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog will have plenty of time to go outside and play with Noah. We walk twice a day, usually 20 minutes each time. First thing in the morning the dogs go out then come in to eat. They also go out for one last break before going to bed. Noah has high energy and loves to play. If he starts playing too rough or had too much energy for my visiting dogs, he is separated and calmed down. I do not leave dogs unattended.

Pets

A typical day

I work from home so the dogs will always have companionship, access to outside and walks. I know how stressful it can be for a dog when the dogs human goes away so Noah and I will do everything possible to keep them happy and having fun.

I would like to know about your dogs' personality, their schedule, and their habits, and energy level. Are they leash trained? Do they pull when walking or do they walk calmly? Do they have a history of marking their territory or having accidents in the house? Do they show any behavior that I should watch for such as food or toy aggression? Are they able to jump the fence? Please fill out the profile fully on Rover. It is very helpful to know about your dog before a meet-and-greet is scheduled. It's ok to let me know about any issues that they may have. It helps me to be prepared, know what to look for, and not have surprises. PLEASE NOTE -If you cannot pick up your dog within the 24 hr time frame, then Xtra Care rates apply @ $10.00 an hour ($12 holidays) with a maximum of $45 ($60 holidays). -Dogs may be dropped offer picked up anytime after 8 am and no later than 7 pm. The early/late drop-off fee is $10. -I am unable to accommodate dogs/puppies who are not yet house-trained. -I am unable to sit for dogs that have a history of peeing or pooping in the house, have frequent accidents, dribble, submissive pee, or mark their territory. I understand once but if it happens often, I will notify you and a $40 cleaning fee will be due upon pick up. -SPAYED/NEUTERED DOGS ONLY PLEASE -I only accept one dog guest at a time, but I am willing to consider taking two at once if they are from the same family or they do well with other dogs. -I require a Meet and Greet. Please bring proof of vaccinations to the Meet. -I am unable to care for sick dogs. If your dog is sick the day of drop-off, please let me know and make other arrangements.
