Pet care experience

Retired and rescue experienced

Having lived with canine family members all my life, working with dogs is just second nature to me. Over the last couple of years, I have lost both of my 17-year-old pups, so my home is currently without pets. I have been a foster for rescues over several years and have provided overnight boarding as well as daily walking services. Being retired, I am home the vast majority of time to ensure your pups get lots of attention.

Cynthia always does a wonderful job with Hank, making sure he gets plenty of playtime and he appears to be very happy over there.

I am so happy to have found Cynthia through Rover to watch my two labs. Their first stay with her was terrific. She is so lovely and a great communicator. My pups had a great stay with Cynthia and I’ve already booked her again.

My 2nd time leaving my pup with Cynthia and it was another great experience! I know my dog is well cared for and Cynthia does a great job with updates and pics. I would highly recommend!

Cynthia was a perfect fit for our 9 year old lab. He was in need of rest and her home was the perfect fit. She communicated frequently and put us at ease during our time away.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a 6 foot privacy-fenced back yard and a single story home which is good for pups with mobility issues. Being retired means that your pups will always be my priority.

A typical day

I love to make sure dogs get proper stimulation and exercise, which includes lots of play time, daily walks (if desired), and of course, lots of playtime and snuggles.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs. I am experienced with senior care as well as general medication administration. Knowing about issues such as anxieties can help me take this into consideration with activities.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
