New to Rover promo code: CHRISS86159 Ask about my multiple pet discount for drop in visits! Additional fee for any visits over 15 miles to accommodate for travel time and gas. Hello everyone! I have been on Rover for a few years now and have experienced alot so far but I am sure that I will still get a surprise here and there! I try to take all surprises with grace and just learn from them! We have: bones, hard yak cheese sticks, frisbee, balls, soft stuffy toys, rope toys, bubble machine, dog pool and pounce sprinkler, lick mats, sniff mats, puzzle toys, we do some arts and crafts (typically on or near holidays), homemade frozen enrichment bowls, if you request a bath for your dog I have multiple deshedding tools. Blankets, crates, extra bowls and diapers if needed. I am investing a lot into my doggy business. I recently made a small indoor gated area that has mats layed down for optimal comfort during indoor play and sleeping. I am in the process of creating an additional fenced in area in my yard that will feature a sand pit for those that love to dig, turf grass to contain the mud and a climbing feature for king of the hill! I can give your dog the patience it may need for basic training along with draining out some of the coopt up energy so they can listen better! Training in wee hours doesnt bother me at all and can even be fun. I have kids that are not rough or overly involved with animals and that also know some basic training. Any medication or special request can also be discussed and accommodated. Any questions just feel free to ask. Thanks for reading and considering me for your fur baby.

Christine is awesome! She’s a young mom who has dogs and takes what she does seriously. That means great communication, letting me know what’s going on with the doggo when I’m away through pics, video and text, and reliability. I feel safe when she’s watching my pet!

Cam was worn out when we picked him up but in a good way. Christine was very forthcoming when answering questions before and after Cam’s stay. We would definitely reach out to her again.

It was our first time leaving Murphy overnight, and Christine did a fantastic job. She was patient, caring, and kept us updated throughout his stay with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. Murphy eventually warmed up to her dogs and had a wonderful time playing in the backyard. It was clear that Christine took the time to make him feel comfortable and cared for. Thanks to her, we were able to fully enjoy our trip knowing Murphy was in good hands, and he had his own little vacation too! We would definitely trust Christine with Murphy again and highly recommend her to other pet parents.

I currently work from home so am pretty flexible when it comes to accommodating what works best for my pet parents! My mom is also very helpful in the chance that I do leave home, she resides with me!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a decent sized fenced backyard for being in the city. We love to play fetch and run perimeter. Inside we like to use our indoor manners. Typically all of the dogs sleep together with blankets and cushions that I provide in a space that is about 10x10. I do have crates to utilize if it is the pet parents preference or if we have concerns with potty or chewing issues (I may utilize a doggy diaper when in doors if your dog marks inside) . Some dogs do get to sleep in a separate space from other dogs or in a room with one of my kids if that is where they feel the most comfortable and behave the best.

I typically have a few dogs at a time, so it is a must that your dog has not been known to be aggressive towards other dogs or people for that matter. I need to know about any food allergies, shampoo allergies along with any possible medical conditions including if they are neutered/spayed. I would like to know if your dog is able to eat any table food for treats. Does your dog chew blankets, stuffing, anything they shouldn't? What does your dog like to do for fun? Is your dog allowed to play in the doggie pool?
