Home Away From Home

My husband and I lost our 15 year old Shih-Tzu, several years ago, which left a huge hole in our hearts and our lives. We have taken advantage of our freedom since then and are not quite ready to adopt a new fur baby of our own. However, we love to get our ‘fur baby’ fix by providing a loving and caring environment for yours while you are away. I can assure you that your little one will be embraced as a member of our family during their stay.

Holly & Paul do such an amazing job caring for Theo. Amazing communication and frequent updates with pictures and videos have us feeling so confident knowing our pup is in amazing hands. Would recommend in a heartbeat!

Holly did an amazing job taking care of our little guy Theo while we went on vacation. She was very communicative - providing updates and photos throughout the day. For a crazy dog mom like myself, the updates were so appreciated knowing that Theo was being well taken care of and doted on. He came home a super happy pup! Would recommend Holly in a heartbeat!

Holly and Paul were absolutely wonderful with my Maltese Luna. Almost immediately Luna felt right at home during the meet and greet and when we returned for the weekend stay, Luna ran to their door to greet them. They sent me pictures and updates each day and I was able to tell that Luna was having a wonderful time. I would absolutely leave Luna with Holly and Paul again!!! Thank you, thank you!

Have never found a sitter I trust more than Holly and her hubby. They care for my two little dogs like they were their own. So grateful for her. I can take my trips without worrying about my dogs and know they are not just cared for but loved!

Holly is the absolute best! Our shih tzu gets very nervous when he’s left somewhere new. He did so well with Holly and came home not stressed at all…the only time that has ever happened! We will definitely use Holly for our dog sitting from now on. She can’t be beat!

Oh my goodness! I couldn’t leave enough gold stars to rate how well Holly cared for our dogs! She is amazing! Our rescue dachshund doesn’t warm up to anyone quickly and was playing and snuggling Holly in no time at all! She sent photo updates and I could not ask for a better drop off/pick up. We would definitely recommend her to anyone ?

Safety, trust & environment

We have no children in our home and we do have a fenced in yard, but we have always preferred leashed potty breaks / walks to unattended yard for numerous safety reasons. We will not crate your dog unless you specify to do so, and they will have free roam of the house. Our home is free of clutter and choking hazards. Dogs are allowed on furniture, and we are good with dogs in bed with us if that's their preference.

A typical day

Whatever activities your dog loves - we'll do it! We live in a very quiet community with low traffic and plenty of walking areas. If your dog has a specific training routine or play activity, we'll be sure to add it into their daily routine.

0 to 15 lbs

Takes only 1 client at a time
Holly can host up to 1 pet per night
Just give us a heads up about any particular quirks or behavioral traits your dog may have that we need to consider. For instance, our little one hated when people sneezed or coughed. No idea why this bothered her - but this sound made her run to the closet and hide so we always made sure her sitters were aware.
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.
