Foster Dog Mama That Dog Sits!
Hi! I've been fostering dogs from a local shelter for a little over 2 years. In that time, I've helped about 20 dogs find their forever families. There's been dogs in our home ranging in age from 9 months to 9 years, all with a different story. Abused, neglected, owner surrender, stray, court case holds, seniors, puppies, overweight, super skinny and anything else you can think of! I treated them all with empathy and showered them affection to earn their trust and love. Many of my former fosters come for visits while their owners are on vacation. Any pup that comes through my doors will be cared for and treated with respect, just like my fosters!

Ratings and reviews
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Roxann! This was the longest I have ever been away from Honey—over 30 days—and I was traveling internationally, so knowing that she was safe, loved, and well cared for meant EVERYTHING to me. Roxann stayed in regular contact throughout my entire trip, sending pictures, videos, and updates so I never had to wonder how Honey was doing. She paid attention to the little things, too. When Honey had some irritation with her paws, Roxann noticed it and followed the care routine I use with her. When Honey was partially sprayed by a skunk, she washed her and even replaced her harness when the smell wouldn’t come out! At one point, Roxann thought Honey might be missing me, so I sent videos from Africa and she actually played them for Honey. That touched my heart! She also kept me informed when food or treats were getting low so I could have more delivered. When I returned, everything was organized and ready, making pickup and our transition home quick and easy. Most importantly, Honey was happy and clearly had been VERY well cared for. Having someone I could trust with her for more than a month gave me tremendous peace of mind while I was thousands of miles away. I would absolutely book Roxann again and highly recommend her. Thank you, Roxann, for taking such wonderful care of my girl! 🐾❤️
Roxanne is a great sitter. Take's very good care of pebbles highly recommend her
Roxanne was great, did a wonderful job. Sitting for pebbles, had no worries, definitely hire her again
If I could give her 10 stars I would. I am very hesitant of who I leave my dog with. Roxann made me feel comfortable and eased my anxiety. My dog is on antibiotics and she had so problem at all giving her her meds and making sure she was happy. She would update me multiple times a day and send pictures. My dog is house broken but idk why she had an accident in the house and I as an owner was so embarrassed but Roxann did not make me feel bad about it at all. I would recommend her to anyone. I have used this app twice before and never left a review and never felt like my dog was being treated just the way I treat her, but she was! I am definitely going to use her again! Thanks Roxann!
Roxann was an amazing sitter for our elderly dog, Stella! We went on vacation and she frequently sent updates and photos and our girl had a great time! She was very attentive to Stella's needs and kept her safe and comfortable. I would not hesitate to book again with Roxann.
Roxanne was fantastic with our Luca. Sent me frequent updates to show me how happy he was. It made me feel very good knowing that he was well taken care of.

Schedule
I work Monday to Friday 9-1, and I'm off evenings, weekends and holidays. I also work in the town in which I reside, so my commute is less than 5 minutes, meaning I'm close by!

I have a fully fenced in yard, crates and dog beds in various sizes, bowls, blankets and mounds of toys. I'm also comfortable administering medication if needed.
A typical day
I like to take walks in the neighborhood, where there's lakes and parks to explore. My front porch is always a popular hang out spot for my furry friends as well. I also have plenty of toys!
