Pet care experience

Boop!

I’ve been blessed to be a dog owner for 25+ years. As someone very passionate about phodography, I love taking pics of my 8yo Pom mix Gizmo, so you can expect to receive several pics of your fur baby throughout the day. I can provide updates as thorough and as frequent as needed. As a pet owner myself who sometimes boards her pet, I believe in overcommunication.

MJ is by far the best sitter I’ve ever had on Rover! She genuinely loves dogs. She went above and beyond for Kali giving her so much love, attention, and fun. Kali absolutely loves staying with her and always has the best time, especially playing with her sweet dog Gizmo. MJ provides constant updates and the most beautiful photos, which always reassure me that Kali is happy and well cared for. Her communication is excellent, and I fully trust her to give my pup best possible care. She’s kind, thoughtful, and truly reliable—everything you want in a sitter. I can confidently say MJ is not only the best sitter I’ve had on Rover but the best sitter I’ve ever had for my dog. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, loving, and dependable to care for their pup!

Doggy Day Care • Mar 07, 2025

Sirius's second day care with Maribeth Joy! He had a great day full of walks, naps and even a pup cup. I know Sirius is in good hands here :)

Doggy Day Care • Feb 27, 2025

My shy dog, Sirius, liked Maribeth and her dog right away during our meet & greet! I think he could tell she was a total animal lover, and that he was safe :) During his day care, she was so kind and patient with him, which I really appreciated since it takes Sirius a little bit to warm up to new places and people. I highly recommend Maribeth!!

Doggy Day Care • Dec 17, 2024

MJ was the best! She sent the cutest updates & pics of my dog Larry. I immediately felt at ease with her & so did Larry! He went on walks, went to the park, & had a pup cup. I could tell he had a great time because he came back calm & tired from a fun day!

Maribeth was extremely flexible when it came to dropping off and picking up and her communication was amazing. Definitely will book again in the future.

Doggy Day Care • Oct 11, 2024

MJ is the perfect sitter! She gave Penny the perfect day: exploring the park, a pup cup treat, and so many cuddles. I have so much trust in her and feel so happy knowing Penny is having a wonderful day while I am at work. Gizmo is also the sweetest play pal to around!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced yard and a goofy Pom mix who can keep your dog(s) company. My dog likes to sleep on the bed, the couches, and the floor - whatever tickles his fancy at the time. Your fur baby is welcome to whatever they’re used to and most comfortable with. I also have a large crate if needed.

Pets

A typical day

We’ll walk around the neighborhood (when the weather isn’t scorching of course). My dog has plenty of toys to share and I have a spacious backyard for them to zoom.

- Does your pet know any tricks? What commands do they respond to? - Have any dietary restrictions? I tend to give the occasional dog treat c/o Costco ☺️ - Have any habits or triggers I should be aware of? (e.g. resource guarding, doesn’t like tail/paws/belly touched, loud noises, etc.) - Where does your pet like to sleep? I will make note to ensure their stay is more enjoyable!
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.
