Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced yard and a very friendly dog that would love to play with yours all day! I do require all guests to be crate trained in case of an emergency or for a brief nap time. I really do think dogs are like toddlers and require chill-out time between playtime.

Dogs allowed on furniture
Potty breaks every 0-2 hours

Information Gloria J. would like to know about your pet

Although I don’t have any breed restrictions, for my safety and that of your pet, I do need to know the following questions ahead of time: Does your pet have separation anxiety? Does your pet pull excessively on a leash? (to the point of escaping their collar/dragging you) Is your pet food aggressive? Is your pet potty trained? (***an accident or two are understandable, but if your pet gives no warnings and potties when they feel like it despite walks, there will be an additional $30 fee.) Is your pet comfortable in a kennel/crate? I also require all dogs to be current on their vaccines.

A typical day

Depending on your pet's capacity, we can play fetch, run, walk, play tug-o-war, you name it - or just cuddle on the couch if that’s what your pet is into! ***Pick-up time for Boarding and daycare is between 8am to 5 pm. Anytime between 5pm and 8pm will be considered a half-day for $30 . Pickups after 8pm will be a full overnight fee.***

Pet care experience

I have been around dogs my entire life. I treat my dogs like family and will make your pet part of my family for the duration of their stay. Happy pets are the best pets so walks and playtime are very important to me. I’ll be sure your pet gets plenty of exercise in a safe environment! If your little one can’t play as much, not to worry, they’ll get lots of cuddle time! My home is full of unconditional love for all sizes and ages. I promise never to accept a commitment I cannot keep and to keep you updated on your pet the whole time. Your pet will always come first if I make a commitment to him/her. Hope to see you soon! I am a full-time dog sitter and try not to leave the house when I have doggy-guests over. Your pet will fit right into my schedule and feel at home with my family and dogs. I never leave my doggy-guests unsupervised when they are in my home. Accidents can happen in the blink of an eye and it is important for pets to be properly watched. I limit the number of pets in my home so that I can offer all pets the best level of care (and greatest amount of cuddles) possible.

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.
