Happy Dogs, Care They Deserve!

My husband and I decided to host through Rover after our beloved 21 year old Shiba passed away. I have watched dogs, farm animals, cats, and small reptiles and mammals since 2010 in others’ homes. I also was a dog trainer while finishing college, starting at PetSmart and then branching out on my own. We will give walks and help train dogs while they are with us. We can also administer oral medication. Not only do I have experience with senior care because our Shiba we had but also young puppies above 8 weeks old with training, so any needs can be met with our boarding.

Emily and Tim were absolutely wonderful!!! They took the best care of our little girl. Communicated constantly - giving us updates and lots and lots of pictures. Will definitely be using them again.

Excellent care and communication. Emily and Tim watched our 11month old lab for 3 nights, he had a little anxiety, which they handled effortlessly. Gave us updates everyday, along with pictures. He was so worn out when we picked him up, it was clear he got so much love and attention. Highly recommend!

I wish I could give them 100 stars. Emily and Tim were more than what we could’ve asked for in caring for our puppy for the weekend. They made me feel comfortable leading up to the stay, at drop off, and of course, during his stay. I got pictures and updates regularly which I loved! If dogs could talk I know mine would tell me that he had the BEST weekend. This was my first experience with pet sitting like this and I couldn’t be more thrilled - all thanks to this couple! I know puppies are hard (and mine is particularly energetic!) and they both were confident and capable and that put me at so much ease. Look no further for the best situation you can put your pup in while you need to be away!

Emily and Tim took great care of our boy! We had peace of mind knowing he was in good hands while we were away.

Emily and Timothy took care of my dog like their own! They picked her up and dropped her off. They were so helpful when our flight was delayed and we needed an extra night. Overall, a wonderful experience!

Emily and Tim went above and beyond to accommodate Scooby’s needs. We felt so comfortable and at ease knowing he was happy and loved while we were away. We will definitely be booking with them for future trips.

Schedule

I am a teacher, so during the summer and holidays, I don’t work! My husband is a principal, so pets fit right into our daily routine, and we can be with them regularly. They may need to be alone for a couple of hours if we have to go get dinner occasionally, grocery shop, etc. During the school year, our schedule is different Monday-Friday, and we are gone 7:00-3pm.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a fenced in yard and no other dogs in our home. We do have the option of boarding multiple dogs if your family owns more than one or if you want your dog to have socialization with other dogs. If your dog doesn’t like other animals though, no worries! We can service that too. If you want your dog crated, you will need to bring their crate with you, but we have no problem crating. Also bring some of their favorite toys, their leash, and their food and favorite treats to help them feel comfortable while here. We have a large family home with just my husband and I, so there’s plenty of room for any size dogs to play! Our subdivision also has sidewalks so we can walk your dog easily. I will also help with any training needs.

A typical day

With the pets I watch, we will play with toys, cuddle, and go for walks! We can even take field trips if your dog enjoys car rides! Whatever your dog likes or is used to, we can provide it! We also have a large backyard that is fenced in for lots of fun activities!

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or requirements ahead of time. If there is anything you want me to work specifically on with your dog for training, also please let me know. I am a positive reinforcement type trainer and use treats to help motivate with training. I also can clicker train as well.
