My home is your pets home!

Pet care experience

🔆I have just recently relocated to the Lake City area. I provided full time ‘Rover🐾babysitting love and kisses’ for about 3 years, back in ‘18.. I was not going to start providing furbaby services again, until I was situated in a larger home with a fenced yard. But what I have discovered, is that quiet a few times I myself have been in desperate need of a sitter! & my favorite, trustworthy, go-2-girl, that my pup loved so much back home, is so far away! Nor was I able to find anyone on Rover, that was closer than an hour drive-One way! & We all can agree, that not just anybody WILL do, when it comes to leaving our babies with someone, even if it’s just for a few hours. So I’m very aware that the need is most certainly here in this area, to have Rover Quality Care available!!💙 Therefore, I am now back doing what I love so much, & that’s playing with animals all day!🐾 Whether you’re looking for a full time sitter or if you’re passing thru town on business, then I’m available & ready to love your baby as my own! So although, I do have a smaller sized, 1 BdRm apartment, with no fenced yard, there’s still plenty of space to walk, roam & run , and I am still very capable of caring for your fuzzy loved one, w/ loads of love and safety. 🐾♥️🔆. ☀️Pls Note: when viewing svs I offer, & prices, please know that if your situation is unique, we can most certainly customize a package that will work for you!☀️ ~~Alittle About Me~~ My name is Denise, and I am the mother of 3 boys. 2 are human & have flown the coop already, My 3rd little boy is Bandit, alittle over 4 yrs old now, my ‘fur baby’ chihuahua. I am ‘semi-retired’ & home mostly 24/7, allowing myself to be available 24/7 to care for your pet, without having to leave them alone during their stay with me. I’m also flexible enough to accommodate your schedule in any way that’s needed. Bandit is very social, having been raised in a Rover lifestyle since he was about 6 months. If your pet needs to be ran/jogged... not a problem! I can do that 2-3 times a day, as there is always extra calories that need to go! 💪 If your pup is a couch potato? Then I have the perfect setupIn my home that will fit the 3 of us, & any day is a great day to watch a movie! Although my home is smaller, it’s quiet Roomy, cozy, & very pup friendly! Trust me, you and your baby will be happy💙 My exp ranges from cats to farm animals (big and small), throughtout all my life, as far back as I can remember. I have experience providing medication, vaccines, wound care, I can even offer you a package to help assist you in getting thru those potty training days🐾, (I’ll have your pup trained in no time!), Another service I’m able to help with is feeding your farm animals while you’re away. I’ve got about 7 years experience in caring for a farm. Please contact me for more questions, or if you are a first time Rover parent, and have questions about how the process works, contact me, and I’ll help guide you into the Rover family! It’s super simple!! I look forward to hearing from you & hopefully meeting you soon! 🐾

This was my first Rover experience. Denise and her son seemed nice enough, so i do believe my dog was loved during her stay. I didn't appreciate having to purchase a new harness (forgot to take off, so she chewed through it) and leash (misplaced since day one). The backyard has a very low fence. Akira was let outside unleashed and could have easily jumped it (so be forewarned).

Denise did a wonderful job caring for my White German Shepherd, Zara! I received updates & pictures throughout her stay. She was very thorough and attentive, would definitely board with her again :)

Denise was seriously incredible. During the meet n greet it was obvious she was doing this because of her passion for dogs and not for the money. She made sure Sawyer was comfortable and well acquainted before I booked her and he had a great time making new friends with her’s and others’ dogs. She sent me pictures and updates without being aggressive about it and being aware that I was on vacation. I will definitely be using her in the future!

Information Denise E. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences/restrictions, but it's important to know ahead of time if your pet requires special accommodation due to any social issues, or medical issues that will need to be cared for.

A typical day

There is plenty of property for the doggies to run, play & exercise. I also like to take them for rides, & out to a dog friendly restaurant so they can socialize. Of course this would only be if you allowed these field trips.
