I am lucky enough to be able to work part time from home and assist my homeschooling teens. Because I am home everyday, I make time to get outside often. I include all of the dogs in our playtime and the more, the merrier!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a house with a fenced in backyard. I have easy access to the backyard with a doggy door. I allow dogs on our furniture. They are part of the family, after all. My home is dog proof and I gate off areas they are not allowed, such as kids rooms. Dogs sleep in my room, either in a dog bed or kennel, whatever you prefer. I have extra beds & blankets as well. We spend time doing outdoor play a few times a day.

Information Dolores C. would like to know about your pet

Our pug, Luna is afraid of large dogs and so I ask to only take in small or medium sized dogs. Thank you for understanding.

A typical day

During the day, I take outdoor breaks with our kids and dogs, about every 2-3 hours. We run around with the dogs and play ball, chase, etc to get their wiggles out. But they have access to the backyard with the doggie door for all day fun, if they need it.

Pet care experience

I have been caring for dogs for over 40 years, off and on and for the last 6 years. I work part time from home and my teens are homeschooling so I have time at home to play and care for your loved ones. In my home, pets are family and they are treated as such! I have a big, enclosed backyard for lots of playtime fun and doggy door access from the house so they have plenty of places to roam and explore. I have 2 small dogs (Coco 5yrs. is a Pug Mix and Luna 4 yrs is a Pug), both rescues. Luna we raised from 3 months old. They love meeting new friends and playing in a pack! I have been using Rover myself, for almost eight years, whenever we go on vacation and I love this service! My dogs have so much fun when they are away with their sitter family and I want to help other dogs and families feel the same peace of mind while they are away!

Dolly is the sweetest, kindest person. I 100% recommend. She was born an animal lover and has a special connection with them . She treats her pets and all animals as members of her family. She watched my pup while I was ill and he instantly fell in love with her. I trust her with the most precious part of my life -you can too!🐶

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.
