Our typical day, between myself and my husband, one of us is at home every weekday, working remotely. My youngest child just left for college so we are empty nesters plus we just put our last of four dogs down so we are ready for more personality in the house! We do have two cats but already keep then isolated to our upstairs. They will not mingle with your pet unless you are certain your pet would be friendly.

We are very attentive pet owners. We like to keep animals near us and check on them often if they are not. We like to give them ample playtime. In the case of a dog, we have a fenced in yard and we also love to take walks! We also have a doggie door, in the case your dog is medium sized and willing to use them --- they can go in and out all day long!

Information Michelle & Michael S. would like to know about your pet

I definitely want to know what your pet loves and if they like lots of affection or rather give them space initially. Do I need to be concerned with them being able to jump a 5ft fence??? Do they behave on walks or anything I should be mindful on walks? Are they picky eaters? If so, any tips? Any favorite spots to be petted?!?

A typical day

As mentioned earlier, myself or my husband are home every weekday as we work remotely so your pet will keep us company and provide a great reason for little breaks and walks at lunch time! If they have a favorite toy, bed, blanket etc - bring it along! let me know any other ways they like to play - ie. catching a ball, playing tug of war, playing with squeaky toys. If they get along with other dogs, I'm sure we will run into other dogs on our walks, they can mingle with! Always fun to cuddle too!!! Mentioned elsewhere but worth repeating --- we do own two cats but we already keep them isolated to the upstairs. They will not mingle with your pet unless to know our pet would be friendly.

Pet care experience

I've been around dogs all my life. As soon as I owned my own home, I bought two bassets! Been a dog owner ever since, until recently when I put my last of four doggies down. I've always been the go to for my friends and relatives, for watching their dogs because my dogs were friendly and I have a great house for it! I decided after saying goodbye to my last pup, instead of get a new dog, I would start watching others! I also love going for walks and will take you pup with! Between myself and my husband, one of us is typically home working during the day, Mon - Fri, so you're pet will seldom be alone!

Michelle and Michael were amazing — true dog lovers through and through! This was my first time ever boarding my dogs or using Rover, so I was a little nervous, but they put me completely at ease. They sent daily photos and videos showing how happy and well cared for my dogs were, which was such a comfort. I could tell my pups were treated like part of their family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again!
