Pet care experience

We currently have no pets of our own, but we have owned and raised dogs and cats for many years. We've been with Rover since the end of 2020, and residents of Sparta, MI for over 20 years.

We are so thankful to have Christine to take care of Tux for us. He is so well lived and treated as if he were her own. She always sends the best photos of him so we never miss a thing. Tux loves his time there too!

I have lost count how many times we have trusted Christine in the care of our dog. We trust her to care for him as her own, she sends so many pictures throughout the day that we don’t miss a beat of his vacation while he is there. Thank you once again for taking such great care of Tux, we will see you again soon!

I had to leave my dog for 2 weeks and Christine made this length of time less stressful for me and most importantly for my dog. She did this by sending photos many times during the day as well as giving me updates as to how she was doing. It helped me see how my dog was doing. My dog is a rescue and has some anxieties. Christine was helpful and understanding. I will be using her again!

Safety, trust & environment

We understand how many small dogs can be afraid of some larger dogs. Here, your pup will feel safe and be treated like family, as we are dedicated to providing loving, attentive care, and try to coordinate having pups of the same size in weight together, and 90% of our fluffy clients are under 30 lbs. Currently, our maximum number of dogs at one time is four - just enough so your pet will be able to socialize, and still get the attention they deserve. We offer a positive, calm, and peaceful environment that helps to promote a healthy and happy life for your pet.

I'm a part-time CNA caregiver for seniors here in Sparta. I leave the house for work for about 4 to 5 hours, one day a week. Sometimes I will go out for errands, etc., and on occasion, I'll go north to visit my daughter and grandkids. Usually, while I'm away, my responsible and caring adult son will be here to care for and watch over your pet. My son and I keep in good communication while I'm away. Both of us are nearly always home in the evenings to give your pet lots of love and attention! We especially love long stays (like over 2 weeks)!
