Pet care experience

Share loving home with fur babies!

Long time pet owner. Reliable, friendly, trustworthy and protective. We love all animals. Have owned lots of different animals. We take care of family and friends pets when needed. Pets usually stay at our home. Included photos of some of the pets we have watched. Our family lost our 17 year old Pomeranian in 2021. We are looking to share some love with other fur babies, since our hearts aren’t quite ready to commit to another pet just yet. Rover is more about bringing some warmth back into our home.

Saffie enjoyed her stay! This was our first time boarding our pet and I couldn’t recommend Lahela enough. She was attentive and caring and sent photos and videos daily. She has a great home and your pet will be well cared for.

Thank you, Lahela and family, for taking such great care of my girl! After the initial visit, I could tell that Nova would be safe and happy in their care. She was greeted at drop-off with smiling faces and new toys! I received updates throughout her stay, which gave me total peace of mind knowing she was having a great time. I picked up a very happy pup and will definitely book again for future trips.

We feel so secure leaving our dog with Lahela. Our dog is always thrilled to arrive at Lahela's home, eagerly rushing inside to see her and her daughter, almost forgetting we're even there! It's wonderful to know that your pet feels happy and secure when you bring them to a sitters house. We have had our dog stay with Lahela many times and will continue to do so, and would absolutely recommend her services to other dog owners. Lahela always keeps you updated and sends pictures.

Medical information is important. Potty needs, are they house trained, how often do they need to go. What they like or don’t like. Any issues I need to know about. What will make them feel most comfortable. As long as we are transparent and honest, I am certain there isn’t anything we can’t work out!
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.
