Rosalyn was amazing!! She took care of Maggie as if she was her own dog and kept me posted on how she was doing the whole time I was gone. I loved getting pictures and updates and will definitely be requesting her again!

Rosalyn was amazing with my Barloh! She sent pictures with updates on how he was doing and made him feel so comfortable! It was his first time with a sitter and he usually has separation anxiety when I drop him off at the vet or to get groomed, so I am very happy with the service she provided! I will be booking with her again in the future and encourage all others to book Rosalyn. I enjoyed the pictures and her updates, cause it made me feel so much more comfortable that he was doing okay without my presence. I can’t thank her enough for her outstanding service and love she showed to my pup! :)

Rosalyn took such good care of Brownie! We appreciate the care that she gave Brownie, and the pictures she sent daily. Very thoughtful!

Rosalyn did an amazing job with my dog. I was very nervous but from the meet and greet until I picked him up I felt a sense of relief knowing how much she cared. She sent pictures and updates daily and I greatly appreciated that! Will certainly book again!!!!!

Information Rosalyn D. would like to know about your pet

What is your dog overall temperament? Hyper, calm, etc?

A typical day

A typical day as a dog sitter revolves around providing a structured routine and ensuring the well-being of the dogs in my care. Here's a glimpse into what a typical day in my care might look like: Morning: - I start the day by greeting each dog with love and attention, allowing them to relieve themselves in a secure outdoor area if needed. - Afterward, I provide fresh water and serve them their breakfast according to their specific dietary needs or instructions from their owners. - I engage in interactive playtime, allowing the dogs to burn off some energy and enjoy social interactions with other furry friends, if applicable. - If any dogs require medications, I administer them at the appropriate times, ensuring their health needs are met. -then rest time while I am at work Afternoon: - During the midday hours, I provide a balanced mix of mental and physical exercise. This may involve walks, outdoor playtime, or engaging them in stimulating activities like puzzle toys or training sessions. - I ensure that each dog has ample opportunities for bathroom breaks and access to shade and water on hot days. -then I create a calm and relaxing environment for the dogs to take a nap or rest in a comfortable space in my home. - Throughout the afternoon, I continue to monitor the dogs, providing them with attention and affection as needed. - If any dogs have specific dietary requirements, I serve them their meals accordingly, ensuring they receive the proper nutrition. Evening: - As the day winds down, I engage in another round of playtime or walks to help the dogs expend their remaining energy. - I make sure all dogs have access to fresh water at all times and monitor their behavior for any signs of discomfort or illness. Night: - Before bedtime, I ensure the dogs are comfortably settled in their designated sleeping areas with cozy bedding. - I conduct a final check to make sure the environment is secure and free from any potential hazards. - Throughout the night, I am available to address any concerns or emergencies that may arise, ensuring the safety and well-being of the dogs throughout their stay. This is just a general overview, as each day may vary depending on the needs and preferences of the dogs in my care. I am dedicated to providing a nurturing and engaging environment, ensuring that each dog receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while in my care.
