Your Dog's New BFFs (WFH)

Welcome to our Rover profile! We’re a couple of highly experienced and dedicated dog lovers who work together to ensure your furry friends receive top-notch care. With a deep passion for pups, we provide our services because of our genuine love for dogs. Our black lab mix of 14-year unfortunately passed away a couple of years ago, so we are filling our home with Rover love until we are ready to get another one. We still miss him like crazy, and we appreciate getting to spend time with your pet while you are away. When you leave your furry family member in our care, we treat them as if they were our own. We are dedicated to providing you with peace of mind by staying in continuous communication and sending you plenty of adorable photos of your beloved companions. Ideal Match: Our ideal match is a furry companion who is friendly and loving towards all humans, both male and female. Additionally, they must be friendly towards other dogs in the home, as we now accept two dogs at a time to double the puppy love! We welcome all friendly canines, regardless of breed or size. Some of our regulars are the following breeds: Golden Retriever, Labrador Retriever, Standard Poodle, Chihuahua, Australian Cattle Dog, Golden Doodle, Bassador, King Charles Cavalier Spaniel, etc. Requirements: -Friendly with all humans, both male and female. -Friendly with other dogs. -Must be spayed/neutered. -Must be potty trained. -Must be okay to be home alone for an hour or two (they will never be alone for more than 4 hours at a time). -Oral meds are okay. We do not have experience with injectable meds. We invite you to entrust us with your furry family members, knowing that we'll go above and beyond to create an experience they'll wag their tails about!

Our dog Quarter was very happy to see Sean and Nicole on the second day :) Everything was easy and flexible.

I think this is officially the one millionth time that Rusty's stayed with Nicole and Sean, but I try to write a review each time so people know how great they are. So this time I'll say that I don't think Rusty has a photographer who's better at capturing his good side than Nicole or a couch buddy that he likes chilling best more than Sean. They're a great team, and we're very lucky to have them in our regular roster of sitters. Book them now, because we're probably trying to snag a spot with them as you're reading this!

Nicole & Sean were super communicative, sent lots of updates and photos. My dog clearly had a great time and came back like she had a better vacation than me. Would definitely book again!

Sean and Nicole were great with my dog, Duke! It was clear he had a great time with them and they were so good at communicating and passing along updates during his stay.

Safety, trust & environment

Amenities & Environment: We're equipped with all the essentials to make your dogs feel right at home. A large dog bed at the foot of our bed, food and water bowls, a big basket of dog toys, and a security cameras are a few of the amenities we offer to keep your pet(s) happy and comfortable. Safety: To ensure a safe and comfortable environment, we do meetings in neutral spaces, separate feedings, and no toys when we have more than one dog with us. They are careful monitored, and we have a baby gate to keep them separate as needed (mostly in case of too much fun). To ensure a harmonious pack, we kindly ask that all dogs be spayed or neutered.

A typical day
