Pet care experience

A place all your animals will love!

My husband and I work remote from home so your pet is never left alone. We have a fenced in back yard and large deck area that allows for as much fun in the sun as your pet desires. We have 3 friendly golden retrievers but also have space to give your pet alone time or to keep them separated if needed. We do sometimes also foster kittens from TCRAS, but they are in a separate space and won’t have interactions with your pet. We are comfortable giving basic meds if needed. Our house does have a lot of stairs but if there’s a mobility issue, your pet can stay on the first floor which leads out directly to the backyard. We rover our pets (our kids) and we know how important it is to have a sitter you trust, that sends updates and photos and provides quality care. We give the care we want our pets to have when they’re with someone else.

It was our first time leaving our dog Layla with anyone else so we were nervous. Melissa could not have been more perfect! She obviously had a lot of experience caring for animals. Her home is like magical retreat. She sent pictures and videos regularly. Layla was so happy playing and interacting with Melissa and her dogs. We actually worried that she might not want to come back home with us?. We are so grateful to Melissa and Rover for taking such loving care of Layla while we were on our trip.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a fenced in back yard our pack love to play in. Our dogs are very happy, playful dogs who adore interacting and meeting new animals and their owners. They are all current on their vaccinations and covered by pet insurance. Our dogs are allowed on all the furniture but we can accommodate whatever your wishes are for your pet. We rovered for a bit about 5 years ago but then took a break when we took our dogs to rv all across America for 4 years! We have since moved from Florida to Colorado and we love it here.
