Holly is amazing with our dog Boone. He always loves going for a visit and she is communicative and regularly sends us photos. We would highly recommend Holly for any dog boarding services!

Doggy Day Care • Feb 07, 2025

Holly was an excellent day sitter for our dog, Abbey. Abbey is a Blue Heeler that typically does not take well to strangers but at the first visit, Holly took the time to allow Abbey to warn up to her. Abbey also is hit-or-miss with dogs but Holly introduced her to two of her more gentle/ well-behaved dogs and by the second visit, Abbey was warming up to them as well. She is definitely getting good care and exercise/ simulation at Holly's home because when she gets back from her day visits, she is worn out and ready to dog-nap. I recommend Holly for your dog's care needs!

Schedule

I am typically with the dogs all day, sometimes taking them into the field/town to walk, working on skills, experiencing the world! Low volume and clear boundaries enable guests w higher management needs to integrate safely and comfortably.

Safety, trust & environment

High-drive dogs, mouthy dogs, anxious dogs, and dogs that don't like other dogs are a great fit. Dogs who do well with other dogs may socialize with supervision. There are 6’ fences around the 2 artificial turf/gravel interior yards (3,000 and 5,000 sf) and 5’ around the 1/2 acre Big Field.

Pets

A typical day

Activities are focused on a healthy state of mind and integration as a well-mannered canine citizen. Leash-manners, waiting at doors/gates, settle, impulse-control, crating, and good behavior are practiced here.

Let me know if your dog has any history of fence-jumping, resource-guarding, dog aggression, human aggression, separation anxiety, noise phobias, breaking out of crates, is recently adopted/unknown history, or has had any medical concerns or treatments in the past 6 months. These are not disqualifiers but knowing the details is very important to keeping your pet safe.
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.
