The best affordable care for pets!
Pet care experience
I have always taken care of neighbors' dogs and cats, as well as my own. My family has always had a dog, and I grew up taking care of our family's dogs, cats, and dairy goats. In 2012 we acquired Bud while walking dogs for the local humane society. We now have Dobie who we saved from the pound. I know how much people miss their dogs while vacationing so I will go out of my way to meet their needs and keep them safe. I am a teacher, so with summers off my schedule is flexible for pet care. My husband fills the gap when I'm at work since he works from home most of the time. We both like to workout, so active dogs are fine with us! I’m a teacher so I’m generally home all summer and have decent hours during the school year. My husband works from home, so he is available to help as well. My teenage daughter is also here to help out! We have a fenced in yard, but will usually walk your dog on a leash 4 times a day with one walk being longer. My dog is 11 and pretty lazy at this point.
Reviews
Brooke and Mark are absolutely amazing!! They take the best care of our 4 year old chocolate lab. He has a fair amount of energy so he needs to stay with someone who can keep up. They exceed with that. They take him on long walks, they have a massive backyard for him to play in, and he always comes home tired which is no small feat. We can rest easy knowing our dog is being loved as much as we love him!
Thank you for taking wonderful care of Tito! Loved all the communication, pictures, and videos.
My dogs looked sad to come home they had so much fun! And Katherine sent me photos everyday of them. You can tell she loves what she does. I would definitely use her services again!
Always feel confident leaving Pepper with Katherine and Mark! Great people who take great care of our dog!

Please fill in the pet care information on the Rover website and let me know what medicine your dog takes for fleas and ticks. My own dog is bathed every 2 weeks and is on topical flea treatment.
A typical day
There is a park close by and a 5-mile shady trail to walk your dog. We typically walk our own dog 3 short walks per day, with one being at least 30 minutes long during the cooler time of the day. We play a lot in the backyard with fetch or whatever your dog wants to do.
