Information Debbie G. would like to know about your pet

All dogs must be house trained to potty outside, otherwise they must wear a diaper indoors. All dogs must be current with the following vaccinations and medications: Rabies, DAPP, Bordetella, Flea/Tick prevention. Lepto is optional (squirrels in my trees). Special arrangements can be made if your fur baby cannot be vaccinated due to allergies or an age related issue (vet documentation must be provided).

A typical day

We walk in the neighborhood, swim in the pool (summer), and play/work in the yard or house. If pre-arranged, we go to dog parks or other pet friendly venues.

Dog lover with large private yard

Pet care experience

My home is a small dog haven. I am gentle and loving towards pets, attentive, and cautious to ensure their safety. I have doggie doors for continual backyard potty and play, numerous dog beds throughout my home, and dog toys galore. I have owned pets of many types but prefer dogs, which I’ve owned and cared for my entire life. They are my fur babies! My 2 mini dauschunds are well trained and welcome new playmates. I only use a spray water bottle for bad behavior correction if needed and will never hit a pet. I work from home 100% of the time so I’m available 24/7 to provide the care and love your fur baby needs and deserves. Please note I only board dogs in my home who are under 30lbs but will care for larger dogs in their home. I have a flexible job so I’m available to care for pets in a friendly home setting, instead of the typical boarding businesses which is mostly caged and minimally engaged with. I pick up where the owner left off, providing the same level of detail and care your pet is used to. I strive to make your pet comfortable, safe, and happy regardless of my home or yours.

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.
