Highlights
Pet care experience
I’m an animal magnet. I love them!
It is pure joy for me to care for animals. I have been house sitting and caring for a family for over 9 years. Their two dogs are no less than family to me and my pets. I have a deep love, compassion, and commitment for the well being of all animals, that I believe is a gift God gave me. I have always opened my home to animals, and I love having them around me. I have never been apprehensive or fearful around any animal breed or their behavior. Trust me, I’ve been in some very dangerous places while rescuing animals. I’ve done and seen it all, but I think it’s a gift I was born with, that gives me that fearless and caring nature. I know animals can sense your intentions, so there is no faking it. I have been so blessed to have Wiley, a Chihuahua I rescued in California, and a Rabbit Flopsy who thinks he is also a dog. Sadly, my precious rescue cat Gracie, passed away last month, and we are heartbroken. The 3 of them were so close. I can only promise you, that I would love and care for your animals, as if they were my own, and I look forward to the opportunity.

Ratings and reviews
My experience with Robin was exceptional. I have used another sitter through Rover before and the experience was okay, but I noticed my puppy would come home very riled up and needing to immediately decompress. It often felt like I had to calm him down and get him back to his normal baseline. With Robin, the experience was completely different. When I picked him up, he was calm, relaxed, and acting exactly like he does at home. Even during the ride back, he settled into his crate and rested. That told me he was comfortable and well cared for during his stay. I was also a little nervous about having him around other dogs since he hasn’t spent a lot of time with other puppies. Robin was incredibly patient and reassuring. She allowed me to observe and helped me feel confident that he would be just fine, and he truly was. Another thing that stood out was how much my puppy liked her right away. As soon as he got out of the car, he was excited and curious about going inside, which meant a lot to me. I’m so glad I found Robin and truly look forward to working with her again. It’s clear my puppy felt safe and comfortable in her care.
I had such a great experience leaving my pup Todo with her! She kept me updated the entire time with lots of pictures — she captured the best moments, and the photos she sent were literally perfect . Todo got along really well with the other dogs that were there, and I could tell he was comfortable and happy the whole time. As a very protective dog mom, I truly felt at ease leaving my son with her. She made both me and Todo feel so welcomed, and I’m really grateful for how caring and attentive she was. I would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pet.
Robin is such a kind and generous person. She was wonderful with my two dogs and went above and beyond caring for them and keeping me updated. I did not worry at all. She was also super flexible and gracious with my travel plans that changed due to a medical emergency I experienced while I was on vacation. I will absolutely send my dogs back to Robin and her other sweet animals the next time I leave. Thank you so much for everything, Robin!!!!!
Toots had a great time at Robin's house!!
The absolute best! Robin has been an answer to our prayers. Our dog, Luna has always hated being boarded, but our jobs require a lot of travel. This past trip was the best because we knew Luna was being treated so well, able to play with so many other dogs AND no cages! Robin’s communication was top notch and her love for animals is truly amazing! I recommend 1000%!!! 🙌🐶
Robin is all about the dogs! She truly loves them, and it’s so apparent. Our big boy had a wonderful play day there. We will be repeat customers!

Schedule
If I’m not already scheduled, I will always accept. I’m open to 7 days a week. I’m very spontaneous and I am very flexible. So last minute requests are not a problem.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have two fenced in patios. No yard, but lots of grass in the neighborhood for walking. When inside they have all the privileges my pets would have. I do prefer to have my dog Wiley with me, if I am house sitting. See his profile, he is wonderful with everyone and everything.
Pets
A typical day
My place is like a playground for pets, I always have pet music or videos playing on YouTube. My neighborhood has trails and grassy areas.
