A typical day

A typical day includes morning and evenings walks depending on temperatures. We have a ball thrower and do multiple fetch sessions throught the day. We also have a small pool available for those pups that like to play in the water. On days when temperatures are high, we have a large basement available for indoor play sessions. Our pups are on a twice daily feeding schedule, but we can accommodate any special needs for your pup.

Pet care experience

I've had small dogs all my life and have provided sitter services for family and friends over the years. I am a certified foster for a few rescues. We love the idea of rescue and have foster failed with our last two boys. We have lots of experience introducing new additions to our pack, so rest assured we are very cautious with any new introduction. We have managed medications and special feedings as well as working with puppies on crate and potty training.

Thanks so much for watching Daisy and Mario. And for the great tips on getting through the fireworks festivities with nervous pups.

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.
