I will treat your baby like my own!
Pet care experience
I am a full-time sitter with 20+ years of experience dog sitting and volunteering in local animal shelters. I am a true animal lover and some would say I live for doggies :) Approximately six years ago my life changed for the better when I rescued the love of my life, a one year old (at the time), six pound of pure heart Maltese named Polo. Polo is sweet, gentle, playful, and comforting. He loves making new friends. We play when it's time to play and snuggle when it's time to snuggle with our pals. After years of boarding I am now exclusively offering house sitting and drop-in services only. This is especially crucial for older or more timid dogs that don’t do well outside of their own environment. Polo is happy to join if your pet likes the company or he can remain at home if your pet prefers only the company of humans. Photo updates will be sent out daily, sometimes hourly, so you won't go into puppy withdrawal. Your pet will be comfortable, safe, and happy at home while being showered with love and affection. Polo and I look forward to meeting you and your best friend while forging a lifelong relationship based on trust and our common love for our furry friends.
Reviews
Thank you
Rebecca was amazing! She took such great care of my baby while I went on a two day trip. Her pup Polo and my little pom got along so well and had so much fun. Rebecca was in constant contact with me, sending photos and videos of all the fun they were having. She’s super trustworthy and even gave my baby a bath before she came home. Definitely a great experience and I look forward to booking with her again!
First time leaving my 14 yr old with a dog with a sitter I was obviously nervous. Rebecca was amazing throughout and made both myself and my dog completely comfortable that he was being well taken care of! Look no further she is great!!!
Lovely and kind. Sent lots of photos. Would use again

Information Rebecca T. would like to know about your pet
Have they ever been aggressive towards people or other animals? Are they up to date on vaccinations? Are they on heartworm prevention as well as flea & tick prevention ?
A typical day
We go outside several times throughout the day. The dogs are free to frolic in the fenced yard or relax in an outdoor doggie hammock. We love to play fetch and have a huge variety of toys to play with. Guests are welcome to nap wherever they please whether it's on the bed, couch or dog bed. What to Bring: Please make sure to bring enough food for your dogs entire stay as well as a little extra just in case you are delayed. Medication, Treats, Harness and or Collar, and Crate if it is used at home. If the dog is Wee Wee pad trained please bring those as well. Optional items: Dog Beds, and Bowls Please do not bring Toys or Bones. I have baskets of toys everywhere for your dog to enjoy. Many toys end up lost or destroyed so please don’t bring any toys you want returned. Bones can cause aggression between the nicest most friendly dogs. I prefer to eliminate potential resource guarding as a precaution.
