Highlights
Pet care experience
Providing loving, thoughtful care!
Dogs have been a part of my family my entire life. Years ago, as a US Navy sailor stationed in Hawaii, my immediate goal upon finally moving into my own apartment was to adopt a dog. I found my best girl, a mini-dachshund named Penny, who I had the privilege of loving for over ten years. Penny traveled with me from Hawaii to Washington to Sicily and finally to North Carolina. Since then we have added two more dogs, Hercules and Tacoma, to our family and they're honestly like my children. After she passed away, I began my career with Rover. I fully understand the stress of having to leave your pets while on vacation so I'd like to help alleviate those concerns. Your dogs will be well loved while in my care! I'm home more often than not so your pup will have plenty of attention, and my two dogs love to play with our visitors! I start the day by letting my dogs out to potty in our large, fully fenced yard before typically taking them on morning walks and feeding them breakfast. Throughout the day I'll let them out to play and always ensure that they are safe. I have about a half acre fully fenced with 6 ft privacy fencing. There's plenty of sunny and shady spots. If it's hot out we can play with a sprinkler! I let my dogs sleep in my room at night. If you prefer I can crate your dog. We allow our dogs on the bed and furniture. As for dog walks or drop in visits, I will be most attentive to your pet's needs!

Ratings and reviews
Lilli provided several picture updates and videos of our Jojo. She was a wonderful doggy host and we thank her for her sweetness and kindness with our pup while we were away!
Lilli is the best! We always know Palmer is in good hands with her and has a blast during her stay. Excellent communication with us as well. Thank you Lilli!!
Lilli is the best!! She keeps my dog busy and happy and he is always taken care of so well when he stays with her.
Lilli was absolutely amazing! Our girl is super shy and nervous but we had absolutely no worries about her being with Lilli, we got tons of updates and pictures and knew she was being cared for so well! Would absolutely recommend she provided peace of mind while we were away especially for a dog with a little more emotional needs!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Lilli. From the very beginning, she was professional, communicative, and clearly passionate about caring for animals. She took the time to understand Xander’s personality, routine, and specific needs, which immediately gave me peace of mind. While I was away, I received regular updates, photos, and little notes that showed just how happy and well cared for he was. It was obvious that he wasn’t just being watched—he was being genuinely loved and engaged with and I’m glad he got to make two new friends, Hercules and Taco! If you’re looking for someone reliable, attentive, and truly exceptional with animals, I wholeheartedly recommend Lilli.
Lilli takes absolutely amazing care of my dog!! She gives him plenty of attention and exercise and sends lots of photos and updates to let me know how he’s doing.

Schedule
Rover is my main focus, and I will be able to spend the majority of the day with your dog. On a weekly basis I may need to step out of the house to take care of other drop-in services or dog walks. As such, it's important that your pup can be left in my home for, at most, two hours or so while I'm taking care of my Rover duties. If they are destructive or anxious, I can kennel them or set them up in a room with a baby gate to block the doorway, giving them their own space. Please let me know how your dog feels about being left alone. Otherwise, we'll have plenty of time to play in the yard with my own two dogs, Hercules and Taco. They are very used to having all sorts of dog friends come over to play. Please note, for drop in services, I adjust AM/PM visits according to the daylight hours, since I do not drive late at night. Similarly, I do not complete drop-in visits beyond 7 pm (unless it's summer time and it is still bright out). I have no problem completing early morning drop-ins as well.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pets will eat breakfast and dinner alongside my dogs. If your pup is a grazer, they won't be able to do that here without the chance of their food getting eaten by one of my dogs. I have a half acre, fully fenced property with lots of trees. There is lots of space for sprinting and playing fetch! Schedule and weather permitting, I will happily take your dog on a walk as well. At night, if your pup isn't the anxious type, he or she can sleep in the bedroom with the rest of us. Otherwise, I will set up a cozy space in the TV room downstairs for them to sleep. Though I only accept one client at a time for new dogs, I do take on multiple clients when I am very familiar and trusting of the dogs. Because I already have two dogs of my own, I can only accept two additional dogs at a time (with certain considerations, such as weight, temperament, etc). I must complete a meet and greet with any new client. For drop-ins or dog walks, these must take place in your home. For daycare or boarding, these must take place in my home.

A typical day
Any dogs that stay with me get plenty of stimulation playing with my own two dogs. While my older boy, Hercules, prefers shorter bouts of play, my younger dog, Taco, has endless energy. There's plenty of time for fetch in the backyard too.
