Safety, trust & environment

I like to base your dogs care on their normal everyday schedule. I feel it keeps dogs happy and comfortable to be in an environment similar to what they have at home! If your dog needs to be exercised they are free to run around the yard all day and play as much as they like! If your dog is on the lazy side they are welcome to sun bathe and nap all day! I want your pets to be comfortable and enjoy their stay! So please let me know what your pet likes and dislikes so I can give them boarding perfectly tailored to their needs! (All pets will be subjected to lots of hugs and kisses)

Information Lucy R. would like to know about your pet

Information that is important to me is your dogs temperance towards other dogs and any special care your pet might need during their stay. Information on any commands if they know some would be appreciated. I need to know if your pet is potty trained so I can keep a close watch on them, I’m beginning to spend more on cleaning products than I make petsitting lol. If your dog causes damage to my house or property I do fully expect the owner to pay for replacements or repairs. If your dog is an indoor dog and you wish for them to be kept indoors then they need to arrive fully groomed and clean. Please if your dogs have a jumping problem let me know, I am a small woman and it can be very painful when big dogs are jumpers. (Jumping dogs will not be turned away, I just need to know so I am prepared to be body slammed) Thank you!

A typical day

I love throwing doggy pool parties at my house! On a hot summer day some dogs like to jump right on in and enjoy the cool water! If your dog dislikes water no worries! We have plenty of shaded areas that they can lay under and relax. During Holiday seasons if you’d like, I will take photos of your pet in front of our Christmas tree for you to enjoy! I enjoy long walks around my neighborhood and I appreciate the furry company while I study and do my schoolwork.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals from birds, cats, dogs and even lizards since I was 12. I grew up in a very animal loving environment since I was a baby and I even attended the Riverside Animal Shelters Critter Camp for 3 summers in a row where I learned dog training techniques and how to handle all kinds of animals. I love all pets like they are family and I will make sure your pet feels at home.

Our dog Koa had a fund stay. She met some friends and seemed to be in good spirits. Lucy did a great job keeping us up to date.

Wasn’t available for the time range I had specified so I had to book a last minute sitter which ended up costing more. I tried multiple ways to get in contact and received no response. Not sure I believed the story I was told. It is what it is.

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.
