Your pup's home away from home

Pet care experience

We want to help you by giving exceptional care (& snuggles) to your pooch! Be assured that your 4-legged family member is in good hands with our long-time dog owning family. Over the past 15 years, we have cared for furry family & friends and are looking to give and get some doggy love while you are away. We are also conveniently close to the airport, MOA, and Great Wolf water park. Our kids are learning responsibility while earning some fun money. Mom and dad are closely monitoring to make sure that all your dog’s needs are being met.

Julie and Ben took great care of our dog! This was our first time using Rover and were a bit nervous but everything went great. They sent daily updates while we were away. Harlow loved playing in their yard and cuddling up on the couch. We highly recommend Julie and Ben, and will use them again in the future!

Hans had a fantastic stay with Julie and Ben and was extremely well taken care of for almost a full week. Communication was excellent. Pick up and drop off was a breeze. Could not recommend them enough to care for your pet!

Julie and Ben and their family took such great care of our greyhound! Super easy to work with and plenty of space for doggos to run about. Wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again!

This was our initial experience with Rover and can't speak highly enough of Julie, Ben and their children. The care, attention and love extended to our dog was very appreciated especially having to leave her behind at Christmas. The daily updates/photos were very comforting. More importantly, it was a positive experience for our dog. Many, many thanks.
