Pet care experience

For as long as I can remember, I’ve always been surrounded by animals. We lived in a farm and I was always taking care of the cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, rabbits.. ect.. You name it. Over the years, I have volunteered at different local rescues, SPCA and worked at an veterinarian practice . I also foster dogs whenever I’m able. I truly love animals. It doesn’t matter if it’s my dog, a foster dog or a clients dog. They will be cared for and loved as long as they are in my care. My house is full of animal lovers too. We decided to join Rover after was so panicked about where our dogs would go while we were on a family vacation. We usually bring them with us, but this time, it wasn’t possible. I didn’t want them to go to a kennel, where they would be on concrete runs 24/7 and not staffed at night. I came very close to staying home while everyone else went. We finally found care for them in our home. I want to help others who feel the same way I did. I not only want you to enjoy a stress-free vacation, but i also want your furbabies to have their own vacation too. We go on daily pack walks and we have over a 1/2 acre fenced in for playtime or just relaxing. During summer months, we have a dog pool and sprinkler play. We have a separate room that can be utilized for dogs that like a little down time (available if we do not have a current foster) Complete with big fluffy beds, 70 inch TV (complete with DogTV) toys and a comfy couch. Otherwise , we have dog beds scattered thought the house. I will also provide pictures and updates as frequently as you’d like. Whether you have a puppy or a 15 year old senior (my favorites!) we have the experience and the love. I’m home almost all day, 7 days a week. If I need to run out for a quick errand, there will always be someone here. My husband has K9 military and police training experience as well and my son has also volunteered at local animal rescues. We have a fenced in secure yard with 2 happy dogs available to play anytime. We also have a quiet room for dogs that need or want a little R&R time away. We also have crates available for those who feel more comfortable with utilizing them. Whether laying outside soaking up,the sun or watching TV curled up on the couch, We want YOUR dog to feel happy, safe and loved while in our care.

Deanna is the absolute best. I had a family emergency and she was able to take care of my furr babies with such short notice.

Deanna and her husband were absolutely WONDERFUL. The care and attention that was given to Maximus was more than I could ever imagine. I am extremely pleased with the updates and photos since it was his first time staying with Deanna. It definitely put me at ease knowing he was in excellent care.

Ty loves going to Deanna’s. It was so heart warming when we dropped him off and he just ran in and gave them love. I truly trust and appreciate Deanna and her family. They love my little boy.
