Pet care experience

One Family WFH Dog Boarding ⭐️

Hi! I'm Kalen. I grew up caring for my family dog, who had epilepsy, for over 15 years, which taught me patience and compassionate care. Since then, I've adopted two dogs of my own and created a home built around structure, consistency, and lots of love. Because I work from home, your pup will get plenty of supervision, attention, and a calm, safe environment while you're away. My goal is to make every dog feel comfortable and right at home. ‼️ 1st time clients: if you request a last minute booking and can not commit to a meet & greet before the requested check-in time, my home is not a fit for you.

I am so glad I found Kalen to care for my dog while I went on vacation! She responded promptly to my initial inquiry, and we were able to do a meet-and-greet with our dogs beforehand. She made sure she understood Piper's routine, and I knew she was in good hands when I dropped her off. Kalen sent pics during my time away and gave a detailed report on Piper when I returned. I can't say enough good things about Kalen, and will definitely utilize her services in the future.

Awesome care & attention was provided to my furbabies, Stuart & Louie, by Kalen. Her attention to detail in every aspect of "care" is unmatched. She promptly & thoughtfully kept me aware of my dogs activities & wellbeing with texts & photos thru Rover communication. She is both an "ACE" and an "ANGEL" with her interactions with my "boys." I will definitely ask for her for future pet-sitting care. I certainly feel blessed & lucky that Kalen was my first experience utilizing ROVER. ❤️‍🩹

Safety, trust & environment

🏡 I only board one client family at a time, so your dog won't be staying with a house full of unfamiliar dogs. 🐶 Two friendly resident dogs 🌳 Fully fenced backyard 🍽️ Separate feeding stations for every dog. My resident dogs and guest dogs are always fed separately to ensure everyone can eat safely and comfortably. 🤝 Meet & greets are required for all first-time clients. I do not accept first-time bookings without one, even for last-minute requests. 🦴 Dogs must be crate trained. Crates are used for quiet time while I clean, when we have a visitor, and whenever I briefly leave for school drop off or pick up. Dogs should be comfortable relaxing in a crate for about an hour.

Please let me know about your dog's routine, personality, medications, and any behaviors I should know about. To keep everyone safe, your dog should: ✔️ Be comfortable and friendly around children ✔️ Have good manners around people ✔️ Be crate trained for up to an hour ✔️ Be able to enjoy supervised play with other dogs ✔️ Not have significant resource guarding behaviors around toys, beds, or people My resident dogs are littermates and are used to sharing toys, beds, and common spaces. Dogs with severe resource guarding tendencies are not a good fit for my home. If your dog is overly mouthy, frequently jumps on people, or cannot settle in a crate for about an hour, my home may not be the best fit. ‼️ 1st time clients: if you request a last minute booking and can not commit to a meet & greet before the requested check-in time, my home is not a fit for you.
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.
