Pet care experience
Tails & Trails | Happy Dogs
A happy dog is a tired dog! I offer dog walks, drop-in visits and overnights at my home. My experience is both personal and professional: I recently lost my beloved 15-year old Labrador. Since I’ve been able to drive (25+ years ago), I’ve also professionally pet sat many fur babies within their homes for extended stays (references available, but Rover was not invented back then🤣). I love the companionship of animals, as well as offering pet owners the feeling of relief that comes with knowing their fur-family is well tended. Whether away on vacation, or you have a long work day, I’m well aware of how nerve-wracking and uncomfortable it is to leave your pet alone for too long. The need for a pet-sitter myself is initially what led me to Rover. At the moment, I mostly board dogs within my home, but am available for drop in visits/walks on occasion. While I don’t have a yard, I’m a stay at home mom who is home all day save for local errands and picking up/dropping off my kids to/from school and activities. I can provide a potty break or walk every 3-4 hours. My kids LOVE animals, so dogs must be used to kids, and enjoy affection. However, rest assured, I don’t let my kids climb on or otherwise irritate your pet. Please contact me to discuss your needs and feel relieved knowing your pup will get a good dose of affection, exercise and plenty of potty breaks while you’re away.

Ratings and reviews
Liz was awesome looking after our 2 dogs. They clearly were shown a lot of love and attention from her and her sweet kids. She sent us photos and updates throughout the weekend. I wouldn’t hesitate to ask her to watch them again. Our oldest dog refused to get in to the car to leave when I picked him up 😂 thank you so much 💕
I had never used Rover for pet sitting and I was a little nervous about leaving our dog, but Liz did a wonderful job of sending updates and pictures everyday. I would definitely recommend her to others!
It was our first time using Rover and are so grateful for LIZ! She was communicative and so kind. Lots of walks and daily updates! Our Banks came home happy and worn out ◡̈ We will definitely use her again!
Liz took great care of our dog while we were out of town for Thanksgiving! She took him on lots of walks and sent daily updates and photos. He was so happy there with her family, and it was such a relief knowing he was under great care!
Liz was wonderful with our almost 9 yr old pug and our 2 yr old anxious Australian shepherd. She kept them overnight and did well with dealing with the Aussie that isn’t great on a leash. We received updates and photos letting us know how their time was going.
Great experience, such a sweet family. Communicated well and sent me lots of pictures :) definitely will rebook!

Schedule
I’m a stay at home mom, and husband works out of the home. I have your pet stay with me, or I can visit your place mornings and late afternoons.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I board up to two dogs at once. I keep dogs in a gated off area (or your pet crate) while I’m out, and dogs have the run of my place while we’re home. Your pet must be comfortable with kids. However I won’t let my kiddos tug, climb on or otherwise irritate your baby. Your dog must like lots of attention though. He/she will get lots of pets, and if ok with you, some gentle hugs.

A typical day
Walk and feed around 6:00/6:30. Another potty break 2-4 hours thereafter. Water always available. Might go to the park behind our building at 11ish to play ball and sniff around. Rest time between 12-2, then another potty break before dinner. Kids are happy to dote on your babe from 3ish-6ish. Another potty break before bed. My kids go to sleep at 8pm, I can let your pup out for a last potty break 9:30. Because we are home throughout the day, there’s plenty of time for pats and affection. If your dog travels well and fine by you, I’ll occasionally take for a ride!
