Pet care experience

Playtime with a SPLASH

Our family currently has 8 pets ( 2 dogs, 4 cats, and 1 rabbits.) Inside our family unit pets are a responsibility of love we all take on. This has allowed my children to see the deeper side of what it takes to love an animal. Slowly gaining trust with each pet has become second nature to us. I Grew up my whole life with animals, but personally started caring for pets myself at 16 starting with a ferret. We have walked the road of behavioral issues to old aged pets as well. This year I started pet sitting and decided to continue that journey. Thanks for considering our family to care for your family while you're away.

Safety, trust & environment

At our home we have a fenced section and an electric fence for our pets that covers 4 acres. If your pet is trained on this type of fence he/she can run the whole yard. If they are not trained on electric fences, they can run in 2 other fenced in area attached to the back of our home. There is also an additional fence for the in-ground pool. We are offering supervised doggie swim & splash time in the inground pool We have 4 dog kennels in our air conditioned/ heated garage for boarding when they are not playing outside or inside our home. Garage door will be kept shut and only a side locked door will be used to enter in and out of. I will also be getting dog first aid/CPR certified soon. Our vets office is 2 minutes down the road from us as well. I will also be cleaning the kennels between each dog with the same chemicals the vet uses to kill diseases and is safe for animals. Knowing your dogs temperament and personality will help us secure his/her safety and others. We have a questionnaire to help us get to know your pet and it’s needs.

Our dogs stayed with Lauren and Joseph for an entire month while we were traveling. Great experience overall, and peace of mind knowing the dogs were with a family and having fun rather than being in a kennel somewhere.

Schedule

While we were previously a homeschool family, currently my kids attend a 4 day a week school where I also teach 3rd grade. Someone usually gets home between 2-3:30 Monday-Thursday. We are always home Friday since there is no school. We take care of the animals before we leave in the morning, and once we’re home they are a part of our family the rest of the day. My husband also has a flexible schedule and is often working from home during the day.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

over 101 lbs
Lauren & Joseph can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
The more specific details the better. Knowing exactly what your pets needs are is highly important. Some things that are helpful to know: 1. how to greet your dog? 4. How are they with children? 5. is there a certain place they don't like to be pet? 6. how do they like to play? 7. what are their bathroom habits? 8. Are they able to sleep in a kennel 9. Are they nervous? 10. Can they play with other dogs or do they need their own play time? These are just some examples of things we love to know.
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.
