Pet care experience

Your dog’s home away from home!

I have cared for different types of animals my entire life, and would love for your pet to stay for a visit! I recently moved to a house with a large, private yard with plenty of room both inside and out to play. I am home during the day to ensure your pet’s needs are provided for, including lots of attention. I’d be happy to send pictures and updates during your pet’s stay so you can stay connected with them. I am happy to accommodate for your pet’s individual needs- whether it be snuggling on the couch or long walks. I frequently pet sit for friends and am excited to expand services through Rover. Please contact me to discuss the needs of your pets today!

Jim took great care of Hank while we were away for several days. He sent pictures and provided updates. I will definitely use Jim again.

Jim was super accommodating and sent lots of photos! I knew my pup was in good hands during his stay! My puppy got to spend lots of time outdoors and playing with other puppies! I’m so happy that he was well taken care of.

A typical day

Your dog will love my large yard to run and play, in addition to walks in the local neighborhood. Other activities include playing catch, exploring wildlife on my 2+ acre property, and couch time to relax if desired.
