BACK! An active dog is a happy dog!

Pet care experience

Hello! I've taken a break from Rover to focus on our toddler and aging heeler. But with some life changes I've been able to make space again to take care of your best friend :)I work remote and home full time. I've grown up with labs but now I have a stoic heeler, so I'm well aware of high energy dogs. I work remote and home full time. Your dog will get plenty of attention before work with a long walk at our local Tanner dog park, during lunch breaks I always do another walk or some fetch in our big backyard, and after work we do something big with a hike or long walk (on or off leash depending on your dog) in sugarhouse, BTS or memory grove! You can expect your dog to get two-three major activities every day of their stay. The minimum amount of walk time they'll do for one activity is 30mins the longest could be up to two hours. They will also have unlimited access to a fully fenced backyard. We do have a doggie door, so no need to worry about bathroom breaks! My home office looks out into in the backyard so they will always have eyes on them. If you want to get your dog out for a run or just a stroll around the neighborhood, I'd be the perfect person to look after your furry friend. I joined Rover as a side hustle in hopes to speed up some home renovations and I'm so glad I did :) because I truly love spending time with other dogs. I'm happy to accommodate my activities to your dogs needs, I want to make sure they enjoy their time and stay! I love taking pups to local parks, trails, dog parks and/or just play with them in our backyard. I'm a firm believer that an active dog is a happy dog! *No drop offs before 6:30am and pick ups after 9:00PM *I prefer to only accept one dog at a time so your dog can get the attention it deserves. *Must be decent with toddlers if you are doing overnight boarding

Katie and Anthony go above and beyond when dog sitting! Rocky stayed with them for a few nights and had so many adventures whether it be the park or walk! Katie sent me a bunch of updates and pictures and was very responsive! Any pup is lucky to stay with them! I would highly recommend!

Katie and her husband took amazing care of my dog, George, for the weekend! They were great communicators and provided so many fun updates of their weekend adventures. George will definitely be having sleepovers with these guys again :)

For the past few years I took time away from Rover to focus on my toddler and aging heeler. I wanted to make sure I was present for my family, now with having some more time I'm excited to work Rover back into my routine. I can't wait to get back out on hikes and walks with my favorite furry friends.
