I work from home with lots of breaks to take pets for walks and potty-breaks. While we camp out of town many weekends, we are available to board pets when we are home. We live in a quiet equestrian community with great trails for walking, visiting horses, cows, goats and other critters.

Safety, trust & environment

Farm setting on 10 fenced acres. Lots of room to run around. We have a 3-year-old retriever mix rescue who is great with other dogs and would love to play with your fur baby! House is open to pets of all sizes.

Information Doris P. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to meet-n-greet pets ahead of time if possible. Rusty gets along with everyone, but it's important to me to be comfortable with you and your dog!

A typical day

I'm an early-riser, so we're outside early. Rusty and I like to walk/hike around the trails cut into our 10-acre wooden property. Sometimes, we jump on the golf-cart or in the Jeep and ride around the neighborhood. When it's hot, we like to come inside and soak up the A/C until it's time for potty-breaks and lunchtime walks.

Pet care experience

I've been around animals my whole life and treat them like my own babies! Spoiled! I currently pet-sit for friends and neighbors and can offer plenty of references.

We can always rely on Ms Doris to care for our brood. She checks in promptly and sends plenty of pics. Ms Doris has been available to check up on our chicks several times now, and shes the first one we think of when we need care for them.

Ms Doris is the best! She’s taken care of our flock a few times now while we’ve traveled and she always knows what they need and how to handle our stubborn guys. Thankfully she’s always been available when we’ve needed her, even last minute. Ms Doris is our go-to caregiver!

I would give Doris a 7 STAR rating! We had a vacation planned and a family member who normally watched our wonderful fur babies, experienced a personal emergency and was not able to dog sit for us. Last minute we turned to Rover. We had never utilized Rover before, being a little apprehensive...of course we all love our dogs as family!!! We reviewed Doris P. profile, seeing she was in close proximity to our house. With less than a week notice (until our vacation) Doris responded immediately letting us know she was available. Wow, is all I can say! She was GREAT with them both!!! Doris sent many pics of them smiling and the largest baby playing catch with a ball, it was quite obvious they loved her too! We greatly appreciated her being willing to come with such a short notice...she literally saved our vacation!!! Much Thanks Doris!!

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.
