I've been around and had dogs my whole life - nothing makes me happier than getting comfortable on the couch and having a dog jump up beside me and snuggle in as my wing man for the night! I live with my husband, 14-year old son and 5 year old black lab Charlie in a comfortable, dog friendly home. I've been dog watching for several years and just joined Rover for more exposure to new/potential clients. Everyone in the family loves to sit on the back deck and play fetch with the dogs or just hang out and watch them play and interact together. We also have been involved with a local dog rescue for a few years and in that time fostered TONS of dogs, big and small, old and young and loved every minute of it. I want dog owners to know that I take my role of watching their babies very seriously. I ask about their dog habits (good and bad) to make sure their stay with me is safe and relaxing. We make your pets a part of our home and life and my goal is to be the kind of sitter that I would want to hire for my baby, Charlie. Oh AND I make my own natural dog treats that guests can purchase for their fur babies on site for their stay, if interested (apple yogurt smoothies, pumpkin oat applesauce bites and bear claws that are a natural flea and tick repellant)
