Pet care experience

There is not a time in my life that I can remember where I did not have a pet to spend it with or share it with. And now that I am retired I can dedicate even more time to this enjoyment. I have had all types of dogs, cats and genue pigs in my lifetime, both large and small, and love them all the same. I have two birds as well and look forward to waking up to their chirping every morning. I currently own two dogs. One is a Shih-Tzu mix I have had since she was just a puppy. The other I volunteered to take home rather than see him get sent to the pound by his owner for simple lease restrictions. Along with our two cats, our pet guests will never have a shortage of playmates! My husband passed away November 1, 2021 and I am retired. My son, Justin, is currently living with me so they will have plenty of tender loving care between the two of us. We have two dogs of our own so they will always have playmates. We also have different size crates to kennel up when needed or if the client request. I accept bookings seven days a week and very flexible with drop off and pick up times. I strive to make the drop off and pick up a non issue. I have a safe fenced yard and either my son or myself always go out with the dogs or watch them on our yard camera.

Thank you so much, Donna, for taking the stress out of finding a sitter for Breeze so that we could enjoy our time away with no worries. Thank you for your flexibility and communication! He even got to play with other pups! We will keep you in mind for all future needs.

Donna accepted a booking for my two pit bulls last week. Her son came to my home and picked them up and she let me know when they arrived and were settled in. She sent photos every day and was quick to respond to questions. There was another large breed dog boarding with her and our girls loved playing with him. When her son brought them back home they seemed comfortable and confident with him. They played at home for about thirty minutes then fell asleep. This was our first time to book with Rover, prior to this we kenneled them at a large facility with a large group of dogs. Overall this was a fantastic experience and we plan to book with Donna again. Her family and loving home environment made all the difference in the world for us and our babies. Thank you Donna!
