Pet care experience

Belly Rubs & Large Fenced Yard 🦮🐾

Belly rubs are always free! Let your pups sniff, bark, and stay in a house with large fenced back yard! Plenty of room for your high energy dog to get their zoomies out playing with my young labs. I am a life long dog lover & owner. I grew up with dogs from tiny to giant & will take care of yours just like I take care of mine. I work from home so I can provide care and belly rubs throughout the day. I love playing fetch with my dogs on breaks from work and even a trip to the nearby dog park (if you allow) for lunch or a short hike after work to really wear the pups out. You know what they say ‘a tired dog is a good dog’. I've been dog sitting for over 20 years. Ruthee and Sunny, my labs, will make any dog or person feel loved and welcome. They share tennis balls, frisbees, and bones well with others. Woof! We have a large fence back yard with multiple shade trees and Sunny will show your pup the best squirrel watching places. In addition to the insurance booking through Rover provides you, I have additional pet sitter insurance through Pet Sitters Associates.

We had a wonderful experience with Maggs watching our two senior dogs. The entire process was easy from the start, and she made us feel comfortable during the interview and booking process. While we were away, Maggs kept us updated with regular photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind knowing our pups were happy and well cared for. Senior dogs can require a little extra attention, and it was clear that she treated them with patience, kindness, and love. We picked up two happy dogs, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with Maggs again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!

Schedule

I work from home most days so I can make sure the pups have plenty of attention and frequent bathroom breaks. We walk frequently and do a lot of off leash hikes (if your pup would be up for that). If your dog is a swimmer I can take them to a pond or swimming pool (all fenced in) for an additional fee (subject to availability of pond/pools). Drop off/Pick up times (availability outside of these times for an additional fee) SunMon/Tues/Thur/Fri/Sat: 8AM-8PM Wed: 4PM-8PM-On these days my work schedule is such that I cannot really take time to get the dogs situated after drop off until 4PM, unless previously coordinated.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced in back yard and will treat your pups just like mine. My dogs use the doggie door to come/go from the yard to the house. I can keep it closed if I'm gone from my house if owners prefer. Most dogs catch on after a few tries, but if they don't, I'm available to let them out and in.

I don't usually crate dogs, but am happy to if you bring one for your pup. Please let me know of any dietary or health issues and I can accommodate them. It's important to keep your pups on a normal a schedule as possible so I'll ask about feeding time, morning and nightly routines to include your normal makeups and bedtimes. I provide treats and I'll aks if there are any they. shouldn't have. My pups love bones so I'll ask if bones are okay for your dogs, it's not a problem if they aren't, mine don't need to have one every day. My pups have some plushy toys they like to play with, so please let me know if your dog is a destroyer of all soft toys and I'll put them away...we still have lots of tug toys to play with.
