Highlights
Pet care experience
We'll love your pup like our own
We specialize in undivided attention, one dog at a time. We have more than 15 years of dog-owning experience (had Springer Spaniels, but have no pets now), so we would be more than thrilled to care for your dog as if they're our own. We’re available for walks, drop-ins and boarding. We live on a 6-acre wooded lot so your pup will have plenty of room for fun here. We love the outdoors, walks and hikes, so your pooch will get a workout. Check out our more than 150 5-star ratings from other owners. We’re excited to bring our love of dogs to Rover. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
We went on vacation for 11 days and our original dog sitter moved to Colorado…so we began looking for another dog sitter and came across Patrick and Susan. They have 100s of 5 star reviews so we figured we would contact them. They were amazing! One of our dogs recently tore both acls and got a scratch on his eye, so he needed to get meds everyday and needed some extra care. They handled it with ease. Messages and pictures everyday. Both our dogs looked extremely happy(minus when wearing the cone lol). We will absolutely be using them to watch our dogs again in the future!
Excellent communication
Once again Pat and Susan did a wonderful job looking after my dog. My dog loves going to their home. Best sitters in Ellington!
Love the pics they took during their visit. Very caring and helpful bringing our dog’s food inside. Happy with their service.
This is another wonderful vacation my husband and I were able to enjoy TOTALLY all because of Patrick and Susan!! We have an eleven-year-old fur baby Scarlet, who needed special attention due to a recent medical issue right before our two-week vacation. We have her on a strict diet along with medication that she needs every day, but knowing we were leaving her with her caring sitters (Patrick and Susan) was definitely comforting for us. We love that they send constant updates about her day with photos! They go above and beyond, and we couldn't have had an enjoyable vacation without Patrick and Susan caring for Scarlet! Thank you Patrick and Susan
Patrick and Susan are amazing… We trust them completely and our dog gets so excited when they are coming to see her! He feels so lucky to be able to have someone that we trust so when we are gone, we do not have to worry about our sweet dog at all! I recommend them 5+ plus plus stars!!!

Schedule
Caring for dogs on Rover has become our full-time job, so your pups are very rarely alone and get plenty of love, attention and exercise.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Dogs are leashed at all times when outside of our fenced-in backyard. We have a large crate if needed & have areas of the house gated for safety and protection.
A typical day
Our boarder pups get a good walk or run in our fenced-in area as soon as they wake up. They’re fed according to the owners’ requirements & get a long walk of at least a mile or more in the afternoon with lots of playtime in between.
