Pet care experience
About us: I stumbled onto Rover in August 2022 after trying to think of ways to make a little extra money while working at home, full-time, and with 3 kids (approaching middle and high school) that have wanted a dog since probably before they were born. I grew up with dogs and wanted a dog too! But I also didn’t want the vet visits, food expenses…what do we do with a dog when we want to travel? Fast forward to now and dog-sitting has been a truly epic, awesome experience for all of us. By the time you read this it’s likely we will have reached triple digits of dogs that have stayed here. My kids get to learn about ALL different kinds of dogs which has turned them into lifelong dog lovers. I get the companionship I’m looking for while working at home with lots of flexibility so we can block off the calendar when we are ready to have our next travel adventure. And when you choose us your dog becomes part of our pack, and given the very best care 24/7. I am fully aware that your dog is a member of your family and I truly appreciate your trust in selecting us to care for them. I believe strongly in supporting and giving back to the community, so in addition to fostering dogs we also give a portion of my Rover income back to the local animal shelter. Win-win!
Reviews
Jeannie and her family were wonderful with our big guy Murphy! He has a pretty complicated medical issue and Jeannie went above and beyond to make sure he stayed healthy during his stay with her! We loved the updates and felt like he was truly in great hands. Will 100% book again! Thanks Jeannie!
A short but another good stay for TJ. He loves going here.
Our dogs had a great time with Jeannie. She was a great communicator and easy to work with. We appreciate you taking such good care of them!
Jeannie was great. She was professional and courteous. She took very good care of our pups and even sent pictures.

We will follow your instructions to a T. Is your dog allowed on your couch? Sure, us too! Does your dog sleep with you? Okay, we can do that! No crate? Sounds great! We want them to enjoy themselves as much as we enjoy having them here. They are truly our guest. It's amazing how quickly the dogs adapt and become part of the family. I’ve cared for dogs that require oral and injected medication, senior dogs, dogs with anxiety, and dogs with diapers. YOUR dog is most welcome. I love figuring out what makes them feel safe and comfortable. Did you know? When searching for a sitter check if the review is flagged "verified stay". Anyone can write a review so only the ones that are flagged this way are legitimate Rover stays!

Information Jeannie F. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know your dog's feeding schedule, sleeping preferences and any special instructions. You bring the food, bed, favorite toys or blankets, crate (only if needed), and leash. We'll have water/food bowls, toys, treats and lots of tummy rubs, walks, and playtime. It's also helpful to know such things as: can we give them human food, take them for a car ride, and what their typical day is like! Not sure we're a match? Request a Meet and Greet before you book. Is this your first booking with Rover? Ask me for a referral code to get $20 off.
A typical day
We have a park near the house that we can walk to, a great neighborhood with lots of trees, sidewalks and dog friends to meet along the way, and we also have a large, fenced-in yard for superior horse watching experience. I have school-aged kids that LOVE to play with your pup!

Availability
What it’s like here: We have a huge fenced-in yard with a horse farm behind us so lots of interesting sights, sounds and smells for your doggie to experience. Many like to hang out on the deck and watch the horses behind our home. Your dog will come home relaxed and happy. Many repeat clients tell me their dogs get excited as soon as they turn onto our street for the next visit because they have happy memories of their last stay. We can hang out with your pooch for doggie day care, overnight, weekend visits, short-term (1-2 weeks), and long-term stays (>2 weeks).
