My career allows me to work from home so I am available to provide attention, potty breaks, and companionship to pets in my home M-F. We live in a neighborhood and walks can easily fit into the schedule, along with playtime in our fully fenced in backyard.

Information Dawn P. would like to know about your pet

A typical day

Our neighborhood offers lots of places to walk - up hills, down hills, all around! Our fully fenced in backyard makes it easy to throw a ball or a frisbee around or just run back and forth and get some exercise in! The kids get home from school around 3pm so after that, there will be LOTS of "kid attention" and lots of energy will be spent!

Pet care experience

Our family and I have lived with and cared for cats and dogs for most of our lives. We raised a beautiful pit bull rescue for 14 years and last year, we had to say goodbye to our baby Sugar! Rover allows us to love your family pet as our own, for a day, a weekend, or longer! We are comfortable and can accommodate pups of all sizes, from small dogs, puppies, elderly dogs, special needs animals, and larger breeds.

Just had our pup there for the afternoon. He was very comfortable and relaxed when we got back. Great Job Dawn!

My pup loves her time at Dawn's house--the fenced backyard to run around in plus getting to play with children are both such treats. Dawn is a great communicator, kind, flexible and has often been able to help me out on short notice. I appreciate her and her family!
