Hi, I'm Rosie （Ruoxi）. My sister and I both work from home full-time, and we offer one-on-one dog boarding in a calm, clean, and loving home. Your dog will be treated like family while staying with us. Our home has a large, secure fenced backyard, and dogs staying here are almost never left alone. They receive plenty of companionship, outdoor time, and attention throughout the day. We host only one dog at a time (or dogs from the same family) so every pup receives our full focus and care. Our goal is simple: every dog who stays with us should feel safe, relaxed, and loved — like they’re on their own little vacation. 🐾 A Typical Day in Our Home Our home follows a calm and structured routine, which helps dogs feel comfortable and secure. Morning Dogs start the day with time in the backyard to stretch, explore, and relax. Daytime While I work in my home office, dogs usually relax in the living room or enjoy spending time in the yard. Throughout the day we take regular breaks for outdoor time, interaction, and play. Afternoon Dogs often rest indoors, enjoy the sunshine outside, or calmly explore the yard. Evening After dinner, we usually go for a walk and then wind down for a quiet evening. Because someone is almost always home, dogs receive frequent potty breaks, companionship, and attention throughout the day. 🐾 Mental Stimulation & Play To keep dogs happy and engaged, we provide a variety of toys, including: • balls • tug ropes • plush toys • interactive play We also spend time playing simple games in the yard like fetch or tug-of-war. Even during work hours, dogs always have a comfortable and enriching environment. 🐾 Our Home Environment Our home is clean, safe, and dog-friendly. Backyard features include: • tall secure fencing (safe for large dogs) • double safety gates • a clean, clutter-free yard • direct backyard access from the living room for easy potty breaks Inside the home, dogs can relax comfortably and move around freely in a safe space. 🐾 One-on-One Boarding We provide true one-on-one boarding. There are no other dogs or cats living in our home, which allows each dog to receive full attention and helps avoid stress from unfamiliar animals. Many dogs feel especially relaxed in this calm and private environment. 🐾 Food & Health We carefully follow each owner’s instructions. Our general approach: • we feed only the food provided by the owner • we do not give human food • we keep the dog’s usual feeding routine We also provide: • filtered drinking water • safe food storage • refrigerator space if wet food needs to be stored 🐾 Communication & Updates We know how much owners miss their dogs while traveling. During your dog’s stay, you can expect: • at least two photo updates per day (usually morning and evening) • occasional extra updates when your pup is doing something adorable This way you can stay connected and feel reassured while you’re away. 🐾 Safety & Emergency Preparation To help ensure your dog’s safety, before boarding we collect basic information such as: • emergency contact phone number • an additional emergency contact • veterinarian information • pet insurance information (if applicable) This allows us to respond quickly if any unexpected situation occurs. 🐾 Meet & Greet For first-time stays, we’re always happy to arrange a Meet & Greet. These visits usually last about 15–20 minutes and allow: • your dog to get familiar with the environment • us to observe your dog’s temperament • owners to feel comfortable with the boarding setting Many owners find this helpful, especially for longer stays. 🐾 First Stay Tips To help your dog adjust more easily, you’re welcome to bring: • your dog’s bed • a blanket • favorite toys • treats Familiar scents often help dogs relax faster. These items are completely optional, as we already provide beds, bowls, and toys for different sizes of dogs. 🐾 Vaccination Requirement For the health and safety of all dogs, we require that dogs staying with us: • are up-to-date on vaccinations • are in good health 🐾 Best Fit for Our Home To maintain a calm and safe environment, our home tends to be the best fit for dogs that: • are friendly and comfortable around people • are not showing aggressive behavior • are not recovering from surgery or injuries • do not have severe destructive chewing habits • are comfortable walking on a leash • do not have significant indoor marking behavior • do not attempt to jump fences or bolt through doors 🐾 About Me I previously had a 100-pound German Shepherd who was part of my life for 10 wonderful years, from puppyhood through his senior years. Caring for him taught me a lot about understanding dogs at different stages of life and recognizing their needs as they grow. After he passed away last year, I realized how much joy and companionship dogs bring to my life. Hosting dogs in our home allows me to continue sharing that care and connection. I joined Rover in late January 2026 and have already had the pleasure of hosting several wonderful dogs and receiving kind reviews from their families. My hope is that every dog who stays here feels safe, relaxed, and loved, and enjoys their own little vacation while they’re with us. 🐾 Final In our home, dogs are treated like family. We look forward to meeting you and your pup. 🐾 Feel free to reach out if you have any questions — we’d love to get to know your dog.
