Pet care experience
Instagram— stays_with_rose . Growing up I had many outdoor dogs and cats, one indoor dog being a senior pug. Once I separated from the military I got my first indoor cat, a medium hair American Tabby. Then a couple years ago I adopted a puppy and signed him up for training classes however due to COVID, those classes got canceled and I did all the training myself. It was a blessing though because after doing so much research, not only did I learn how to train a dog, but I also learned behavioral signs and can apply that knowledge to other dogs in the community. I am not a licensed trainer but can share what I learned if asked. I have been watching other dogs (family and friends) since I was in high school and into adulthood dealing with many different breeds and medical issues. I do love all animals though and am willing to watch more than just dogs and cats if requested. PLEASE READ ABOUT MY SCHEDULE
Reviews
Rose watched our dog Poppy while we were traveling for a wedding (4 days). She set up a "meet and greet" beforehand to make sure everything would go well and didn't charge for that night, and was communicative/flexible while we were traveling. She is great and we would definitely have her watch Poppy again!
Rose took great care of our pup!
Rose has always done a great job taking care of our pups. This is the second time they have stayed there and they always enjoy it. She provided us with updates and pictures and even made one of our pups feel special on his birthday. Thank you so much!
Rose is the best dog sitter that I’ve ever had! She’s done so much for our little dog cooper and I’m very happy and so is cooper too! I cannot thank rose of how much she’s done for cooper for the month we’ve been away. I’m 110% gonna book with you again!:) thank you so much for everything!

Safety, trust & environment
While I do not have a fenced in yard, I do have a lead that my dogs get hooked up to and they get taken for many walks. I do not use chemicals in my yard or have toxic plants in the area. I have a second living room that has all the dogs toys and kennels. Pets are allowed on the furniture in my home and would most likely sleep in the bedroom. My dog sleeps on my bed but I know not all dogs like that so I do have a dog bed in my bedroom as an option as well. Cats have their own bedroom. Cats tend to be very picky about their environment, so my spare bedroom has been transformed into a cat room. I have scratching posts or cat trees throughout my home to offer the cats options. I understand how stressful it can be leaving your loved pet with others, and I understand how expensive it can be as well. I'm open to negotiations if you're in a tight spot.
Home
Information Rose P. would like to know about your pet
I can accommodate to many different needs. My dog has dietary needs which means I put a great deal of thought into making his food and am willing to do the same for yours. I have dealt with resource guarding dogs and other behavioral issues. I would just like to know before hand to properly handle space between the animals.
A typical day
On days that I work (M-F), I take my dog for a 45 min walk in the morning before I leave then he gets kenneled while I go to work. I work 7.5 hours each day Monday through Friday. Once I get home, he gets let out and a small snack. We then go on another walk ranging from 45 min-2 hours depending on weather. We love walking by the ponds near my house and walking to a local DQ for a vanilla cone. After the walk we typically play off and on throughout the night with toys.
