Penny and her family were great again as usual with our dog Roxy. We are very happy to have found her and she will always be our first choice for boarding our dog.

Penny and her family looked after my 5 year old lab for a few nights. He did great there and seemed to be having lots of fun in the pictures and videos Penny sent. I would be happy to have him stay with Penny again.

Penny and her family took great care of my high energy and anxious dog. She made sure her every need was taken care of and that she had a great stay! She was truly a part of the family while I was away and I am so grateful for that!

Penny and her family cared for my dog Roxy for 5 days while we were on holidays. She was great and provided a safe home for my dog. She would keep me up to date with pictures and texts to let me know how things we going. This put us ease and let us enjoy our vacation knowing that our dog was well cared for. I would highly recommend Penny and I will be using her again in the future.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced backyard with a calm, tidy, pet-friendly home with air-conditioning. Toys to play with and “treats” for being “a really good boi/girl”. BOARDING: For boarding, I require a meet & greet at my home first to make sure all pets are comfortable together. Boarding is only offered after a successful introduction. Meet and greet is free of charge.

Pets

A typical day

As I work full-time from home (desk job), I am able to provide attention and care for your dog with access to toys, some of which you hide treats for mental stimulation. I have a fully fenced backyard and outside toys. I will be able to add-on a walk (with fee) of 30 minutes at noon and 3:30. One-on-one playtime is possible for 15 minutes, twice daily on a weekday.

Penny can host up to 1 pet per night
We need our furry friends to be polite with no history of aggressive behaviors. I would want to know if your pup has dietary restrictions, allergies, special toy or comfort blanket. I will want to know that they have been exposed to a cat and are fine with sharing space with one. It is important for me to be aware if your doggo has a tendency to have “accidents” in the house so I can be prepared. If your fur baby is going to training classes and you want me to work on something they are learning - I am happy to continue that.
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.
