Dog Lover with 30+ years experience
Pet care experience
I have raised and trained dogs (cats, bunnies, & livestock) since a very young age. I am very active and love to run and play with critters. But I also love to chill and snuggle. I have farm experience, and spent some time working with dog breeders, groomers, and in animal healthcare. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I have experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since I was a child. I have dealt with special needs, injuries, administering medication, and holistic health remedies. I understand that dogs require a considerable amount of attention and exercise, and I am up for the challenge. I am a professional business owner and I take my responsibilities to you and your pets very seriously.
Reviews
She is so nice and her set up for the dogs was really warm and inviting. The yard is especially great! I will definitely use her again.
Robin is very enthusiastic and eager to see that your dog's stay is a pleasant one. Her friendly dog, Shark, played well with my larger German Shepherd Dog Braxton. Robin took the dogs for a walk and to the dog park, and saw to Braxton's special care instructions. I appreciated the pictures she provided.
Robin met with me and Cohen (my pup) before hand at the dog park to get a feel for him. Unfortunately it did not work out. When we dropped him off at Robin's there were 3 dogs there when she said there would only be her own (1 dog). She contacted us 2 hours after he was there telling us it was not going to work out and we needed to find another place for him to stay or come pick him up, while we were both out of state. Rover was able to assist a bit, but we ended up finding a friend recommended kennel she could drop him off at. I appreciate she was able to bring him to the kennel, but did not appreciate that she thought she could not handle him after only a couple hours. Would not recommend leaving a high energy puppy with Robin as she likely can't handle that situation.
Robin was outstanding! She did a great job with our dog during a long stay. We were so grateful to have found her!

I am a small business owner so I get to make my own schedule. It allows me to break up the work day and pop in on pups. Every dog loves a mid day walk in the park!
