Information Shana & Steve N. would like to know about your pet

I have years of experience with dogs that have special needs. I have experience all types of medication and injections. I have worked with rescue groups for over 16 years. At this time, we can only take in small breed dogs who have been spayed/neutered. Must be less than 25 pounds.

A typical day

There is a green belt/park behind our house to give your pup lots of exercise and fun. Plenty of snuggle time with belly rubs too.

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and have always had them as part of my family. Now, my family has been caring for dogs for years. My kids love dogs as much as I do and want them at home all the time. We work with a local rescue group as well as board for our clients. We love all dogs and will always treat your baby like family. We have experience with all breeds and various health issues. We have a large yard for play. We currently have a dachshund as well as a dachshund foster. We spoil our dogs all the time. Cuddle time and belly rubs are always on the schedule. We cater to each dog to make them feel at home. Our whole family loves dogs and wants to care for yours.

Shana & Steve sent us a video of Wyatt getting luvvies from them --- he was wagging his tail and acting goofy just like he does with us, such a wonderful sight to behold :)

Excellent care and flexible scheduling. My baby came back home very happy and didn’t seem to struggle much with his anxiety at all. Thank you for taking care of him!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
