A typical day

I love keeping dogs happy, active, and engaged! Depending on your pup’s personality and energy level, we might go for long walks, relaxing sniff sessions, or even fun jogs if they like to run! I enjoy playing fetch, tug-of-war, and interactive games that help them burn energy and stay mentally stimulated. If your dog loves affection, you can count on plenty of belly rubs, cuddles, and calm downtime too. I also have four young kiddos who are gentle and love animals, so your pet will never be short on attention and companionship (only if that’s something they enjoy!).

Pet care experience

Hi! Tired of your dog judging you for working late? Going on vacation and don’t want them plotting your downfall? Or maybe you just want your pup to have someone who will baby-talk them more than you already do? I offer: -Walks (a.k.a. “sniff expeditions”) -Drop-in visits (belly rubs included, no extra charge) -Doggy daycare (think: snacks, naps, chaos) -Overnight boarding (slumber party with tail wags) Basically, I’ll love your dog like they’re my own, except I won’t dress them up in embarrassing Halloween costumes. (Unless you ask. Then game on.) Message me if your pup is ready to live their best life while you get stuff done! Besides the funny business… I’m a lifelong dog lover with a happy, energetic home full of love and plenty of tail wags! Our family includes four young kiddos and our incredibly patient and gentle 10-year-old dog who’s grown up right alongside them. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pup, and I treat every dog like part of the family. I’m also an avid runner and would be thrilled to give your dog some extra exercise or playtime if they need a little more stimulation throughout the day. Whether it’s a walk, a jog, or just some fenced-in backyard fun, I’m here to help meet your dog’s needs with lots of love and care.

Rosie and her family were the best with my quirky rescue dog. They sent me pictures daily showing him having a great time with their sweet pup and kiddos. I was able to relax and enjoy my trip knowing my dog was loved and cared for. I highly recommend Rosie!
