Hello Pet Parents, My name is Donnie Girard. I would like to take this opportunity to say a HUGE THANK YOU for taking time to visit my personal ROVER-THE DOG PEOPLE profile page, and for your consideration in my services for your pet family needs. My parents Don and Alice and I, along with our two fur-boys Peanut and Buddy have PROUDLY BEEN AFFILIATED WITH ROVER-THE DOG PEOPLE SINCE APRIL OF 2015. Although since this time we have taken much necessary time off due to family matters, and because we put our beautiful home in Fruitland Park up for sale and sold it within days in 2018 and then moved to The Plantation At Leesburg which just was not for us, or our two wonderful fur-boys as we did not have much of a yard then for them, or friends. NOW on March 18, 2020 we have made our final move for a while I pray to an absolutely beautiful location in Lady Lake called Oakland Hills which is like country living within the city and is almost right across the street from Lowe’s Hardware Store in Lady Lake/The Villages. Here we have a very large beautiful secured fenced in backyard of almost 1/2 of an acre or more, with beautiful shade trees for our two fur-boys, and your fur-children to enjoy playing and digging to china underneath, if you permit them to dig. You can see our new backyard under photo section if you desire to do so. Also, we will soon have video cameras inside our home and outside, but of course inside will be on during certain times This will allow you to check in on your fur-family from any internet connection. My parents and I are now accepting reservations for daycare, and overnight or extended overnight care (for anytime after the State of Florida opens back up due to the virus which I pray is soon for us all) to provide personal loving CAGE FREE CARE for no more than two fur-children FROM THE SAME FAMILY AT THE SAME TIME who weigh not much more than twenty pounds, spayed or neutered, friendly, housebroken, and on flea and tick prevention that works.^ You can be sure that when you allow my parents and myself along with our two fur-boys to provide the ultimate care for your pet family, we will treat them as our very own, and that I fully guarantee to you and your precious pet family, in front of my witness who is God Almighty, OUR Creator. They will have a beautiful large secured back yard that will, in the future be set up for our two fur-boys and friends like your fur-children to have a blast in. Plenty of exercise space, socializing and playing, as well as the full run of our home. Including peaceful Christian music, DOGGY TV as well as other good shows, plenty of napping/sleeping places and a night cap doggy treat (if permitted), Air-condition in the heat, and heat in the cold, and even an outside covered potty area for those rainy days. Your fur-children may not want to go home, especially after my parents we refer to as grandma and grandpa to our furry guests get their love, but they will always be welcome to come by and play during the day for daycare, and overnight if available. Once Florida is open back up, and people feel secure again, we will begin to book up, especially around any holidays, school vacations, etc. PLEASE REMEMBER, at this current time, we are limited to ONE FAMILY AT A TIME with no more than two fur-children who are not much over 20 pounds for overnight/extended overnight care as I explained above. Daycare is available for same sizes, and requirements as above, and by reservation through Rover The Dog People. Daycare is limited space of no more than three friendly fur-children from same, and or different families. DAYCARE AS EXPLAINED IS AVAILABLE BY RESERVATION SEVEN DAYS A WEEK FROM 7:00 AM TO 7:30 PM. DAYCARE RATES ARE $25.00 FOR FIRST PET OWNED BY SAME FAMILY AND $12.00 FOR EACH ADDITIONAL PET OWNED BY SAME FAMILY. Yes, DISCOUNTS are available for multi day pass. please contact for details. NOTE: If pet is not picked up by 7:30 PM, there will be a $5.00 added fee per pet, and per every 30 minutes. IF PET IS NOT PICKED UP BY 9:00 PM and other written agreements are not on prior file through ROVER accounts, THERE WILL BE AN OVERNIGHT FEE OF $35.00 FOR FIRST PET AND $12.00 FOR ADDITIONAL PET. and since this time we have built up a pretty good clientele as you can tell by our actual verified by Rover The Dog People “100 FIVE STAR RAVING CLIENT REVIEWS” of which I (DONNIE) am very proud of and thankful for to God for all the valued clients that I personally call human and doggy friends that HE (GOD OUR CREATOR OF ALL) has sent our way, and continues to do so, because HE speaks to the hearts of those who truly listen and who want the very best in care for their precious pet family. I can and do guarantee that with A TOUCH OF HEAVEN LOVING PET CARE, your pet family will be in loving and compassionate hands at all times, regardless of the service you may be in need of. during this time of 2015 through current times, we have made several moves. First from our beautiful Fruitland Park home in September of 2018 to the Plantation at Leesburg which just was not for my parents for certain reasons. Actually it was not the better home for our fur-boys as they had a very small ROCKY back yard of hardly no room to roam, play and most importantly EXERCISE which is so important for our fur-children, other than socializing with other fur-children of same temperament and socializing with people unless you don’t wish to have your pet(s) socialize for reasons of your own, however it is highly important for fur-kids to socialize and exercise. So, with all of that said, WE HAVE MOVED AGAIN RIGHT BY THE VILLAGES AND JUST 1.8 MILES NORTH AS YOU GO UNDER THE GOLF CART BRIDGE ON HWY 27/441 IN LADY LAKE/THE VILLAGES, AND WE ARE NOW LOCATED IN OAKLAND HILLS PARK, ACROSS FROM LADY LAKE LOWES HARDWARE STORE. We moved from The Plantation in mid March of 2020 and GOD WILLING. I am ready to start loving on and getting loved on by those lovable fur-babies who belong to pet parents just like you, and I am so ready for my boys to have friends over again as they are so down because they miss all their friends. My parents Don and Alice and I do offer true loving care in our personal home. Should you choose to allow us the great opportunity to provide care for your doggy family in our very pet friendly cage free home, you can be sure that your pet family will be totally loved and spoiled by my parents and I, and they will have the full run of our home just as our own fur-boys Peanut and Buddy do. Yes, we do allow pets on our furniture, and in our beds, unless you request otherwise. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT WE DO ONLY PROVIDE CARE FOR ONE FAMILY AT A TIME, of no more than two fur-children, who are no more than 20 pounds, spayed or neutered, on flea and tick prevention that works, and no females in heat during their stay with us. The weight restriction is for the safety and comfort of our own fur-boys and my parents. My mom has balance conditions, and bigger fur-kids could cause her to loose her balance, and our fur-boys are frightful of larger fur-children. Thank you very much for your understanding. We also require a no obligation meet and greet in our home so that your fur-children and ours have a chance to meet and to be sure that we are the perfect match for you and your pet family. If you have any questions or to schedule a free no obligation meet and greet in our home, please click on the green button above that says contact Donnie. I will usually respond to you just as soon as I can. NEW SERVICE I NOW OFFER THROUGH ROVER.. I also offer pet check-in visitation in your home.. This includes up to one hour per each check-in visit. I will meet with you and your pet family for a one time free no-obligation in your home. I will provide you and your pet family with outstanding care based upon your exact details for each pet that we will discuss during our meet and greet. I will feed and upon each visitation, I will provide fresh drinking water. I can administer non-forcible medication as well as injections if necessary. I will spend quality time loving on each pet that will allow me to love on them. I will leash walk if requested around your pets familiar walking location. I also provide care for kitties in your home. I will clean litter box as needed upon each visitation. They will receive the same love and care as well. I can alternate blinds and lights, pick up newspapers and collect your mail as well as watch over your home at no additional cost. This helps to deter burglars. I will provide updates with photos upon each visitation. I guarantee that your pet family will receive my personal care, tons of love and affection from a true pet lover. Please note that I am limited to the number of pets that I can provide care for in their personal and comfortable home environment. If I am providing in home visitation, and have a pet family boarding in my home, then my parents help watch the pet family in our home and they love the doggie species family as much as I do. Also if leash walking is not required, then there is no additional charge for more than one doggy family member. RATE FOR THIS SERVICE IS $19.00 FOR EACH DROP IN VISITATION WHICH IS A FLAT RATE FOR ALL PETS THAT LIVE IN YOUR HOUSEHOLD AND OWNED BY YOU. Each additional doggie family member above one that requires leash walking is $5.00 additional. If leash walk is not required, then my rate of $19.00 is a flat rate for all pets that live in your household and covers up to one hour of visitation. I am looking forward to speaking with you soon. Once again, please keep in mind that we do only care for the fur-children of one family at a time so that we can be sure that they get the very best in cage free and true loving care possible, and I am limited to how many in home visitations I can provide in a 24 hour period. Thank you once again for looking over my personal profile. Donnie G.
