Highlights
Pet care experience
Plenty of walks, playtime & treats!
As a lifelong animal lover who has always shared my home with pets, I understand how important it is to know your dog is in caring and attentive hands. Your dog will be lovingly cared for and closely supervised on our peaceful 8-acre property, complete with a beautiful creek and plenty of space to explore. We provide lots of toys and treats to keep your dog happy and engaged, and our friendly miniature schnauzer enjoys making new canine friends (after a little welcoming bark or two!). Our free-ranging chickens also add an extra bit of entertainment and curiosity for visiting dogs. You can feel confident that your dog will be safe, comfortable, and well cared for in our cozy home, where they will receive plenty of attention, affection, and fun throughout their stay.

Ratings and reviews
Chester was fantastic with Biscuit! He sent lots of photos and updates, and it’s clear that our dog had a great time with him
Chester was a great dog sitter for our dog Ruby. He had her doing all her favorite things: fetch, playing with other dogs, and nap on his lap. She can be a little high maintenance with sleep (like to sleep in our bed) and he had a good set up right next to his bed for her. He was sitting a bunch of other dogs all so well behaved and she had the best time like she was at a doggy camp! Will definitely rebook in the future.
It is so hard for me to leave my pup behind when I travel. Working with Chester really put me at ease. He is very warm, authentic and kind. His daily reports, photos and videos helped me feel connected to my pup while I was away. Chester was able to see my pup’s personality strengths and struggles with insight. I was really happy that Fred had some other dogs to play with and hang with. It was a nice small group not too many, not too few. I would strongly recommend Chester as a caretaker for your furry friend.
What a great loving and kind home to leave your furry loved one at! Very responsive, sent pictures and video made my nervous pup more relaxed! Would highly recommend Chester's services to anyone nervous about leaving their dog with a stranger.
Chester took excellent care of our sweet little beagle. He sent wonderful photos and Amee looked super happy and well cared for. I will definitely rebook with Chester!!!!
Chester was an amazing sitter. I can not recommend him enough. He was great with communication, I felt very safe with him taking care of my dog Duke, and he was very attentive, even one day sleeping downstairs to make sure that he wasn't feeling lonely throughout the night. It was great! Chester really goes above and beyond what the expectation of a Rover sitter is and you cannot go wrong using him to watch your pets. Any time I'm in the area and I need a sitter, I will absolutely be using Chester (considering he has availability).

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a spacious 8-acre property with long, groomed walking paths where dogs can explore and enjoy the outdoors, typically leashed for safety. Our back property is exceptionally private, featuring wide, flat open fields with no immediate neighbors and located well away from the road, providing a peaceful and secure environment. We also have a fenced play area where dogs can safely enjoy off-leash play and exercise. Inside, dogs are treated as part of the family and are welcome throughout our roomy and comfortable home. At night, they can relax and sleep in cozy dog beds located in quiet spare rooms, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home during their stay.
Pets
A typical day
I can take your dog on multiple long walks each day along the private, winding trails on our property, which lead to a beautiful creek. Our property offers a wonderful mix of wide-open fields and wooded areas, giving dogs plenty of opportunities to explore, exercise, and enjoy the many interesting sights and scents nature has to offer. For dogs who enjoy socializing, we also have a large fenced play area where they can safely run, play, and interact with other friendly dogs under close supervision.
