DMV's Greyhound/Grey-mix Boarder

Pet care experience

Greyhounds are a unique breed and have special care needs transitioning from racetrack life to professional couch potato. Worried about leaving your fur baby while you go out of town? Let me put your fears at ease and watch your greyhound while you're gone. I have a wonderful 8 year old greyhound who enjoys spending time with other dogs, but LOVES other greyhounds in particular. Bonus if you're a new greyhound owner, my sweet girl will help show your dog all the perks of the retired life and learn how to be a "real" dog. We live near a greyt fully fenced in dog park, so no risk of your dog escaping after a squirrel while doing their zoomies! My apartment also has a dog run for quick potty breaks. From winter jackets to raised water bowls I've got you covered. When not walking your pup, I work as a nurse and freelance photographer. This means my schedule varies every week and I tend to be around for holidays. While 12 hour shifts are long, my days off are open to walk your doggo at your desired time! As a child I grew up with three dogs who loved to sleep in my bed, take road trips to the beach with our family, and go walking around the neighborhood. Please let me know if you're needing a fun, friendly, and flexible dog walker or dog boarder.

Rosie was wonderful with our retired racer! She and the resident greyhound took great care of our pup last minute when another sitter had to cancel. Will definitely trust her again!

Rosie was great with our dog June - we were so happy to have found a reliable and passionate dog sitter. Rosie helped us last minute with June. We really appreciated that. And Allie, her own dog, is a great asset and play companion to June. Thank you so much, Rosie!

we used rover.com and rosie for the first time in early august and could not have been more pleased and satisfied. we went out of town for a week and left our part-italian greyhound part-german shepherd rescue dog portia with rosie and her dog allie. we received daily updates from rosie along with photos of portia and allie being walked and playing together. we were very impressed by rosie’s commitment, attention to detail and by the obvious joy and exuberance she has for animals. we wouldn’t hesitate leaving portia with rosie and allie again and look forward to them having some play dates in the future. thank you ?!

Rosie was perfect. It was my first time leaving my Maisy for a night since I got her a couple months ago. I was nervous, but Rosie is friendly, trustworthy, and dependable. She sent pictures and updates, made the meet-and-greet, pick-up, and drop-off smooth, and otherwise did a great job with taking care of Maisy. I highly recommend Rosie for boarding greyhounds, and any other service she provides!

Most of my experience is with hypoallergenic dogs and low shedding breeds. I also have exerpeince with cats although since childhood I have developed quite the cat allergy

A typical day

We’ll go on long walks around the neighborhood. If there is a favorite dog park near by we’ll definately be making a visit. We’ll play a game of fetch and pull out favorite toys and have lots of couch snuggles!
