Availability

On weekdays, I work full-time from 8:30 am - 5:30 pm, so dropoffs/pickups need to be before 8:00 am and after 6:00 pm. I come home during the lunch hour to be sure everyone is 'freshened up' and water bowls are refilled!

A typical day

Wake up and immediately play outside. After that it's breakfast time, as I don't feed pets before they go outside, as I'm aware of The Bloat. I come home for lunch and it's the same thing, we go play outside. On weekends, it's off-leash fun at the park and ponds.

Karyn and Dakota are very hospitable hosts!! Domino really enjoyed himself and was all smiles from drop off to pick up. Karyn is really the sweetest and I felt extremely comfortable with leaving my baby in her care. She is great at communicating and sending video/picture updates as well. We will be booking again in the future!

Karyn graciously accepted a last minute booking and was wonderful to work with. She took the time to send multiple videos of Bear to reassure us that he was in good hands for the night and was settling in and getting along with her pup Dakota and her long term stay Stella.

Karyn is a regular sitter for my dog Lou. She’s friendly and attentive and sends plenty of updates. Lou always has so much fun at her house with her dog Dakota. I’m grateful to be able to rely on her care for my pup.

I’m thankful for Karyn’s patience. She did such a great job with Jax. She listened and did everything we asked. She really took care of our boy.

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.
