I have a HUGE passion for animals

Pet care experience

I have had dogs all my life & have taken care of friends & family’s pets. I tend to adopt “problem” dogs that other people can’t handle. I love a challenge & gaining the trust of the dog. I used to frequent the Dominican Republic to feed & give flea baths to the neglected street dogs out there.

When my dog's not being used to being boarded for any time at all.Robyn did a wonderful job with my dogs Angel and sassy for 3-day boarding stay. She stayed in contact the entire time with videos and pictures letting me know my pups were okay. I was very pleased with our services and how happy my fur babies looked while they were there.

Robyn took great care of my Allie while on vacation. She communicated with me often and shared pics and video to ease my mind about leaving my dog! I was assured she was in good hands. Robyn has a great set up to care for many dogs and cats, my Allie had plenty of room inside and out for her safety and well being. Will definitely book with her again!

As I told Robyn myself, they need to create a new and higher level of rating to accurately rate this Lady because she truly stands out in her heartfelt passion of her own dogs as well as those she is dog sitting. This is my now third time utilizing Rover, lucked out before with Rachel as well. But back to Robyn; heart of gold, so dedicated and involved with dogs she is sitting for and I would give her a TEN STARS rating if I could. She is truly a SUPER SITTER. Thanks so much Robyn. Definitely saving her info, the best! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Information Robyn W. would like to know about your pet

It would be important to know if your dog is dog, specific friendly, if they need any medication & if they are food aggressive, or toy aggressive so I know how to approach the situation. I would also need to know if they are neutered or spayed so I know to keep them away from others that are not neutered or spayed.

A typical day

A typical day would be playing outside in the yard with my five dogs and possibly a foster dog. If Im fostering at that time. We usually play in the garden hose and with a small kiddy pool or they just enjoy chasing each other around the yard playing tag. In the evening I usually take them on a walk before bed.
