Availability
I am retired and working on my own part time business from home. I will be home to keep your fur baby company in our fenced yard. We do have a pool and if your pup is interested, with your approval, they can even take a supervised dip with us.

Let me love on your pups !
Pet care experience
Animals have been in my life since I was a child. Mostly dogs with a few cats, fish, and chinchillas along the way, but dogs hold my heart. We recently lost our senior Rhodesian Ridgebacks to health and age, and rather than getting a new family member of our own, we want to love on yours instead!
Reviews
Harvey was well taken care of by Karen & Steve while we were out of town! He seemed happy & healthy, and like his usual self when we went to pick him up-we were not sure was to expect as this was his first time being away from us. Very much appreciate that they only do one family of dogs at a time, and are home most of the day as we work from home and our dog isn’t used to long stints of being alone.
We had a great experience leaving our two dogs this past weekend with Karen and Steve, we felt very comfortable with everything after meeting them. They were especially wonderful with our nervous dog, he seemed to come out of his shell, which takes a lot of patience. We came home to two happy pups and look forward to booking with them again. We also really appreciate that they were able to accommodate our last minute request.
Karen and Steve seem nice. Unfortunately we got zero updates on our dogs during their weekend stay. No photos/texts on how they were doing. We have used Rover for years and this is the first time we have experienced this. It’s an easy fix for future stays but since we never got any updates I unfortunately can’t give them a 5 star review. The reason why we pay for Rover sitters is for them to be cared for specifically to their needs (ie: feeding instructions (this did not appear to have been followed at this stay), playtime, and human interaction) Otherwise we could just put them in a kennel which is something we wouldn’t do.
Ozzie was well cared for and had a great time. He even left with a new toy!
