My husband and I take our dog, Larry, on long morning and evening walks around the neighborhood. We enjoy having the pups that stay with us join so they are well exercised while we are at work for the day (during the school year only; we are both teachers).

Safety, trust & environment

We live in a home with a yard (unfenced) and a 5 year old poodle mix to keep your pup company. We have pet beds on every floor of our house, time for walks, and lots of snuggles to help keep your dog happy during their stay. When we have to leave the home and your dog is in our care, we give them their own floor, separate from our dog. We also have cameras to make sure your dog stays safe. We have a large crate we are able to set up if your dog needs to be crated when left alone.

Information Emily H. would like to know about your pet

We require a meet & greet for all new bookings. We use a pack walk to safely introduce our dog with yours. All boarders and day care visitors must be up to date on their vaccines.

A typical day

During the school year, we get up early and take a walk around the neighborhood before we go to work. After the work day (we are gone for 6 hours due to staggered work schedules), we play for a bit in the backyard and take a long walk after dinner.

Pet care experience

My husband and I both grew up with large breeds and have had dogs our entire lives. I lived with all different kinds of foster dogs and we now have one 5 year old dog at home. My husband and I are teachers who can provide lots of love and attention to any dog that comes and stays with us.

Had the best experience with leaving our greyhound with Emily this past week! They were fantastic and very communicative. We loved all the pictures and felt So safe and comfortable having him with them.

Emily took such wonderful care of our dogs. Easy communication and caring. She is thoughtful about how to make the dogs comfortable in an unfamiliar setting and is very considerate about safety in introducing new dogs to one another.

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.
