Information Rhondarose L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog(s) have any unique quirks or behaviors I should be aware of. It gives me better insight on how best to care for them! Example: separation anxiety, food aggression, destructive when bored, digging, etc.

A typical day

Rain or shine I'm happy to get out with your dog(s) for a daily walk! There will be time for cuddling, and time for playing. My large fenced yard is great for playing fetch.

Trustworthy & Dependable Care

Pet care experience

Last minute requests? No problem! 27 years of experience with all types of breeds. Dogs were my childhood passion! In elementary school I volunteered at the local animal shelter every week, walking & playing with the shelter dogs. I would raise money on my own by selling candy to my classmates during recess for profit to donate to the shelter. I've had a variety of dog breeds my whole life from little Daschunds to my big Great Dane! I have experience handling dogs of all different sizes. My current fur babies are 2 German Shepherds, Ammo & Ghost. I use Rover for when I need care for them so I know what it is like to be on the Pet Parent end of this. :) I would love to meet your pup & spend a part of my day with them. WALK REQUESTS: I love walks just as much as dogs do! I'm able to provide walks around your neighborhood and I'm happy to do so in all weather conditions! I have experience with all breeds and I'm not even a little intimidated by the big ones :) BOARDING REQUESTS: During boarding, I'm usually engaging with your dog(s) by playing fetch outside, taking a daily walk, and/or snuggling on the couch depending our your dog(s) personality! :) We have a doggy door so on nice days, I leave our doggy door open for your dog(s) and mine to come in and out as they please. I have the ability to gate off parts of my home if I ever feel there is a concern with dogs getting along when I need to step out during the day.
