Pet care experience

Hello. My name is Dawn and I was born in Yorkshire in England. I live with my husband Mike in Gales Ferry. I stumbled upon Rover 7 years ago whilst trying to find alternative accommodation for my own puppies and thought what a great idea it was. Since then, I have been host to hundreds of pups, all looking for that loving, caring individual home environment. I have also fostered for DDR and been a foster failure twice. This is my only job so I'm here 24/7. We have an acre of fully fenced yard so your pups are free to explore in safety and all day access to the outside. I feed everyone separately for their own safety and they are allowed anywhere in the house. We strive to keep their daily routine at home, the same here. I require a copy of shot records, mainly rabies and kennel cough and that your pups have flea and tick preventative as we live next door to the woods. We look forward to hearing from you in the future. Have a safe and wonderful day. Why I love dog sitting Growing up, we had dogs as long as I can remember but once I left home I never had a yard big enough to accommodate a puppy. Now I have the fortunate opportunity to have pups come to my home to play and be loved and be treated like my own. They aren't just dogs when they come here, they're family. About my yard We have an acre of fully fenced yard with trees and bushes to explore and plenty of running space. My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering medication by mouth.

Dawn seemed plenty experienced and the enclosed yard was a perfect romp area for all the dogs she had. Our pup seems happy and tired after her weekend. I think Dawn will be missed when she moves back to England!

I would highly recommend Dawn. This was the first time leaving our purebred who is very spoiled and not been around many dogs. Dawn sent us pictures of our dog playing and it made us a lot more at ease. Everything was so smooth and she is close to foxwoods. We will use her again. Our pup is home and looking for the other dogs to play with.

Information Dawn K. would like to know about your pet

I always recommend a meet and greet before hosting a pup. Although dogs pretty much get along with each other there will always be that certain one they won't like. Ultimately, my pups will have the final say.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks We live on a circle so we walk them round twice a day. Plenty of wooded area to explore. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Your dog will sleep wherever he / she sleeps at home. We try to keep them to the same routine as much as possible. Time I'll spend with your dog I spend all day with my pooches and guest pups. My profile says 24/7 and that's exactly right. I do not leave the house unattended when I'm boarding a pup / pups.
