When boarding your pets, we can offer them plenty of love and attention! For dogs, we usually do at least 2 walks per day (we keep the afternoon ones short if it's too hot). We have a large fenced-in backyard and a few parks in walking distance. For cats, we love playing with them with wand toys or simple yarn, or putting some Cat TV on for them haha.

Information Joyce L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your cat or dog has any specific behaviors I should be aware of, including anxiety, barking, territorial of their space or toys, pulling on walks, etc. Also let me know if they've had recent injuries or surgeries.

A typical day

Happy to match your pet's usual activity level! I can play with them at home (puzzles, fetch, etc.) or take them for a long walk.

We don't have any pets of our own, but have experience with taking care of cats/dogs for our friends, family, and now Rover clients! We only take one "family" at a time (up to 2 dog/cat siblings).

I cannot recommend Joyce and Patrick enough! I am the owner of a reactive, vocal terrier mix who usually struggles with new environments and strangers. We already began setting the stage for Ori to begin to become familiar with Joyce and Patrick prior to my big trip. However, I was nervous to leave him for a week long international trip, but Joyce and Patrick made the entire process seamless. Joyce sent frequent photo updates of Ori sunbathing in their backyard splooting on their floor and loafing on the couch, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. They truly treated him like their own. If you have a sensitive or high needs dog, Joyce and Patrick are the absolute best choice. Joyce will absolutely become my go-to whenever I need my pup to have safe place to stay!

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.
