Large fenced yard will run with dog

My family and I are Christians. I was making plans to get my son a dog once he started working this summer. His big sister, who is now 20, worked at Ripleys Aquarium before she joined the Airforce a year ago. He wants a job there this summer just so he can learn more about animals. He is a natural around dogs and other animals. He is an honor role student who wants to be a vet one day. While I was out walking in my neighborhood, I ran into a sweet lady who told us about Rover.com. I thought how perfect is that. We get the love and warmth of a dog, and I will be able to teach my beloved son about responsibility and helping others. Your dog will get the love and care that you would expect and will be completely safe with us. The last dog I owned was a Staffordshire Terrier. We loved him. His resting place is in my home Bermuda.

Karla was fantastic with our Georgia. She even sent pictures and updates through her stay! Our girl does well on her own without any other pets. Karla was a perfect fit. I will definitely be booking with her again!

Doggy Day Care • Jul 18, 2026

I cannot say good enough things about Karla. It is a pet owner dream pet sitter. Will take care of your baby just like it was hers. Our girl has high anxiety and separation anxiety and Karla was able to calm her down and get her to relax until she was super comfortable with being away from us. Through all this time she constantly sent me updates, videos and images and that really made my time away more relaxed. Thank you so so much for your help on such a short notice!

Karla and Malcolm were so welcoming and took good care of our dog. Karla sent some many pictures and videos to let us know how he was doing. She exudes energy and kindness. I highly recommend her.
