I have had dogs seemingly all my life. I breed, train and compete with Golden Retrievers and German Shepherds. I also groom dogs. Obedience is a must at my house, but I also train nose work, tracking, protection work, hunt work and rally with my dogs.

She did great with my cat, very attentive and gave my fur baby so much attention. On such short notice aswell I booked the day of. She even provided a litter box with litter, and had a cat tree and toys available.

Philippa was amazing! She required a meet and greet which always makes me feel much more comfortable when a border/sitter knows that meeting the animals beforehand is important to ensure that they are familiar with them and that a sitter actually possesses the skills and the time to meet each person's dog's needs. My dog loved her and her property and had the best time. I got lots of photos and she updated me pretty regularly. She gave me a full rundown of where my dog would be staying and what her day would look like beforehand and provided paperwork to ensure she had all the necessary information for feeding, allergies, etc. When I came to pick her up, Philippa also gave me a rundown of the stay, some things she noticed about her, And of course some compliments about my suite pup LOL. Hands down will be using her again and she's one of the best borders I've met thus far.!

I can’t say enough great things about Philippa! From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Tucker was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved when we returned. Reliable, communicative, and truly compassionate—we will absolutely be booking with Philippa again. Highly recommend!

Schedule

Drop-off and pick up hours are between 8am and 10pm. During the week these hours reduce to 8am - 11am and 6:30pm - 10pm. For several reasons I cannot leave food out so if your cat/dog doesn't eat in a reasonable time, they will have to wait until the next feeding cycle.

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

All dogs/cats get one on one time with me every day. I train as much as possible with lots of treats, fun and toys involved.

Pets

A typical day

All of my dogs get 1:1 attention every day. If I can't train the dog, I might opt for a walk or grooming or play sessions.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Crate-trained dogs only
Philippa can host up to 3 pets per night
I prefer dogs to stay on the same food that they get at home and ask clients to bring their dogs/cat's food rationed for each day. It's important to know their likes and dislikes (especially in regard to other animals) and their health record including allergies. I also need to know of any special needs ahead of time. Dogs under 30 lbs require a meet & greet prior to boarding.
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.
