Great home, yard and sitter!

Pet care experience

This is truly the doggie Ritz - home away from home. Plenty of time, space and love to share with your fur baby! The back yard is large and fenced with nice grass and shade, and we can go in and out all day for exercise and potty breaks. When we are inside, we get cozy and share the sofas, chairs, blankies and cushions. We have doggie beds for visitors, or they can use the ramp to climb up to the big people bed. We will take excellent care of your fur babies and they will get lots of attention and love while they're here. And the boarding fees go to a great cause....my next vacation! lol

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.
