Your Dog is like My Dog in our Home

Pet care experience

I am a stay at home Mom, kids in school full time. After battling Breast Cancer 12 years ago I realized I wanted to do something I really enjoyed and started to do errands and odd jobs to help other people. I have always loved pets and after being asked to watch a friends dog I realized it was fun and rewarding. My kids and I always look forward to our next pet guest! About this sitter: I'm a stay at home mom with 2 college sons living at home and a daughter who is a junior in highschool. I have been watching pets in my home for over 10 years. After battling breast cancer 12 years ago I realized how important family and friends are. I started watching friends pets in the area, because I didn't like having my dogs in kennels and wanted other families to feel that their pets will be loved jin my home just as their own. Needless to say I don't travel a ton for this reason, but it has been fun and rewarding for me and my family to meet the many different faces and personalities of all the pets that come into my home! Why I love dog sitting over 10 years Meet my pets Harley is a labradoodle and is 8 Biscuit is a Bichon Poodle and is 7 Rabbit who is 1 named Funny Bunny About my yard big fenced in back yard

Liz and her son took extra special care of our senior dog, Paco. She was communicative and quick to respond while we were away too. Thank you!!

Liz has been caring for our elderly dog for the past 21 months . She is 100% reliable and trustworthy. She has become our dog's best friend. He originally was my parents dog and they both had passed away. We had decided to get involved with Rover to provide a visit to shorten his time alone while we were at work. Our dog was still grieving the loss of our parents when Liz became in involved. Within just a couple of visits we all noticed that his happy and spunky personality had returned. And that relationship has maintained throughout. He became more playful with his family and his outside high activity level returned. And I know he looks forward to her visits.Over the past few months he has developed an illness and Liz has been so nurturing , attentive and comforting to our dog . I could not go to work if Liz were not coming to see him. He looks so forward to Liz being with him for companionship and comfort from a caring friend. Her empathy is enormous for our dog and us. Liz has become a part of our family and we all feel we found a true rare gem.We are so very thankful to have found Liz.
