Pet care experience

Where Spoiling Pups Comes Standard

I have taken care of dogs for my entire life, including pet sitting for neighbors and friends. Growing up, we mostly had large breeds dogs, making me uniquely qualified for watching large breeds. My parents’ Newfie is a common household guest. We currently have a Beagle and a Golden Retriever who love making new friends!

Noelle came back happy and healthy. Receiving a note at the the start of her stay was comforting too. Meet & Greet, Drop Off and Pick Up were easy and smooth. Thank you!

Great experience overall. This was my first time leaving my dogs with anyone. Melissa and Matt were very good with them and kept in contact with me for updates and photos. Will definitely book again!

They helped me out TONS by watching my Shih Tzu for about 6 days. I’ve never used Rover before, so I was a little hesitant at first. Everything went smooth and they were flexible on drop off & pickup times since we drove all day. My dog seemed extremely comfortable @ pickup and we got several pics throughout the week! I would definitely book with them again.

Schedule

My husband and I both work from home so we are able to provide constant love and attention throughout the day and can provide lots of potty breaks if requested. At most, dogs may be alone for an hour or two for errands.

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every pet as if they were my own and take extra precautions to ensure a secure and comfortable environment. We have a fenced in backyard with a 6 foot privacy fence and dogs are always supervised while outside. Clear communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates.
