As a teen and young adult, I had cats and a dog that were treated like family. We love and talk about them to this day! (I'm old now, so they were truly impactful!) But, it was always hard to go anywhere for any length of time, we always felt so guilty being gone! And forget vacation! But now, with a service like Rover, we have access to sitter services that free up time and space to venture, without feeling the guilt of leaving your pet! If you're in the hospital recovering or having a baby, give us the opportunity to watch your pet while you focus on the task at hand! My husband and I have traveled extensively for many years and have finally started to slow down a bit. On the road, whenever we found ourselves in the company of animals, we always found our calm and our most happy moments! We now have a home with a fully fenced backyard and are looking forward to providing love and cozy surroundings to your fur baby(s) while you have time to explore! We are both nurses, I work two days per week and he is retired, so we also have experience with medical needs as well as time to spend with your pet. Your dog will have plenty of space to hang out and make themselves comfortable. Our home is air conditioned, in a quiet cul-de-sac with little traffic and sidewalks. We value playtime and lounge time equally! We do not kennel dogs unless we are asked to by their owners if they are use to it for sleep or when we leave the house. We only host one client at a time so that your dog/dogs can feel most comfortable and relaxed. We have no children, so no sudden movements or startling motions or loud noises if that is an issue for your older or anxious pet. We aren't sure who will benefit the most from this experience! Dogs are pure joy and love, giving so much to others. We would be delighted to take care of your beloved!
