Pet care experience

Luxury Pet Boarding

With a lifelong passion for dogs, I offer a welcoming and enriching environment for your furry companions. Having spent my childhood on a farm, my love for animals—especially dogs—runs deep. My experience spans from raising puppies to caring for senior dogs, including administering medications and managing incontinence. Your pet will enjoy a home setting with the added benefit of a newly built sunroom, complete with temperature control and easy access to a dog run. They can relax on comfy couches indoors, play in the spacious backyard, or cool off in a baby pool. Fresh water is always available via a water fountain and dishes placed throughout the space, ensuring hydration at all times. Whether your dog prefers lounging in the sun or romping with toys like our ball launcher, they’ll feel right at home. Ellie, my gentle and affectionate dog, loves all canine visitors and adds to the welcoming atmosphere. I look forward to providing top-notch care for your pet in a space designed with their comfort and happiness in mind! ** Max weight accepted for pets is 30lbs** Vaccination Policy 🐾 For the safety of all pets in my care, I kindly ask that owners provide a copy of their pet’s up-to-date vaccination records (including rabies, which is required by law). This helps ensure a safe, healthy environment for your pet and my pets.

Ricquel was amazing with my dog Riley. She was very easy to talk to and communicated very well while I was away. You can tell she takes a genuine interest in the animals she cares for. Thanks again! 😊

Ricquel was amazing with Bubba! I really appreciated her honesty, transparency, and the thoughtful feedback she gave me. I appreciated how patient with him as he warmed up, and it meant a lot knowing he was in such caring hands. Highly recommend! 🩷

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for pets. Your pet will enjoy access to both indoor and outdoor spaces, including a temperature-controlled sunroom and a securely fenced yard. The yard features a scenic, park-like setting with plenty of shade, lounging areas, and a dog run that is cleaned daily. Fresh water is always available throughout the home and yard, and pets have access to toys, a baby pool, and plenty of space to play and relax. For pets that are new to boarding or for young puppies, I offer personalized one-on-one attention to help them feel comfortable and secure in a new environment. I understand that transitioning to a new space can be challenging, so I make sure to provide extra care, reassurance, and gentle supervision to ease their adjustment. Whether it’s through playtime, soothing interaction, or maintaining a routine similar to home, I ensure that each pet receives the individual attention they need to feel safe and relaxed during their stay. For senior dogs, I am experienced in administering medication and providing extra care for their specific needs. If your dog prefers more rest or has medical requirements, I ensure they are well-cared for and comfortable during their stay. While I primarily care for pets in my home, if you have specific requests for in-home visits, feel free to reach out to discuss the details. My goal is always to provide a nurturing and safe environment tailored to each pet’s needs.

Pets

A typical day

I offer a variety of fun activities to keep the pets I watch happy and engaged. In our spacious backyard, dogs can enjoy outdoor play with a ball launcher, interactive toys, and plenty of room to run. On warm days, there’s a baby pool where they can cool off and splash around. For pets who love to explore, there are shaded areas perfect for lounging and taking in the scenic, park-like surroundings. Indoors, I offer cuddle time and calming spaces for relaxation, as well as engaging activities for mental stimulation. Whether your pet prefers active play or quiet companionship, I tailor the activities to fit their personality and energy level.

Before caring for a pet, it's important for me to know a few key details to ensure the best possible experience: Health and Medical Needs: Any medical conditions, medications, or allergies. Diet and Feeding Schedule:Specific food preferences, feeding times, and any dietary restrictions. Behavioral Traits: How your pet interacts with other dogs, any anxiety or fears, and any behaviors that require special attention (e.g., jumping, chewing). Routine and Preferences: Your pet’s daily routine, favorite activities, and comfort items (e.g., toys or bedding). Training and Commands: Any training cues or commands they respond to, and whether they are crate-trained or housebroken. Emergency Contacts:Your preferred vet and emergency contact details. Having this information in advance allows me to tailor the care I provide and ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable while in my home.
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.
