Elaine and her husband Steve did a wonderful job taking care of Gunner. She regularly updated me on how he was doing throughout the stay, and provided plenty of pictures. I know he had a great time with them!

Elaine and Steve were so good to my anxious 5 yr old Havanese dog. They really care a lot about making him comfortable and it didn’t take long for him to feel right at home. They gave him so much attention and love and I could see how happy it made him. He is shy but he became best friends with Elaine and Steve. We received plenty of pictures and updates during the boarding. I will happily book them again!

Safety, trust & environment

Our backyard is both safe and secure. Yard also good to play fetch or sunbathe. Your fur baby will receive both love and attention. Neighborhood is great for walks.

A typical day

A typical day would be to wake up and let dogs out then feed and water. If needed let out again or we watch and let out later or even take for a walk. Dogs lounge either inside or out on patio. Pups given potty breaks when needed. Feed and water again in the evening 5-6pm let out and walk. We like to give at least one good walk to get pups tired so they sleep well.

We’ve had dogs on oral medication. Using cheese, peanut butter or even scrambled eggs has worked well with administrating medications. Walking habits are also important to know. We want to keep dogs as well as ourselves safe. Sleeping habits, do they need a crate or does your fur baby sleep in a bed? We have small beds that can be used for the stay. We like to reward for good behavior. We have treats but, if you have special treat's, please bring. Also, we ask that you bring food for the stay.
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.
