Fur Baby Getaway

Pet care experience

My children and I love pups. I have been on dogvacay which is now Rover for more than 8 years now. I have been around all types of animals my entire life. I only feed them what is brought for them and no table scraps. I also feed all dogs separately. I have a doggie door with 24 hour access to inside and out. They must get along with other dogs and not be able to jump over a 4 1/2 foot fence. My business hours pickup/drop off and meet and greets are 7 days a week from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM and times may vary in regards to other commitments. I currently work from home 90% of the time which leaves me plenty of time to cuddle and play with your fur baby. Pets are very rarely left alone. I only take non aggressive dogs. I have a fenced yard with 24 hour access to a doggie door. I am very passionate about what I do and I get very attached to all my regulars. This is a second home to a lot of my pups.

Shell is amazing! She is professional and confident, and her years of experience and love of dogs really show through with the level of care she gives to each individual dog. We were a bit nervous leaving our special needs, senior dog for a few days, but Shell took the time to work with her and texted us pictures to let us know that she was happy and relaxed. We will definitely be booking future visits with Shell, and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

Shell is absolutely fantastic! My dogs had barely met her for the meet & greet and immediately felt comfortable with her! She’s great with communication, cares for each dog she’s dog sitting, and is very knowledgeable. I’d definitely recommend!!

Shell took good care of my Zulu and provided me photos which made me feel pleased that Zulu was safe and secure. I would recommend Shell. Thanks.

Kentucky LOVED his stay with Shell. Kentucky is a shy dog, but loved being here. Shell gave me updates and pictures to let us know how he was doing during his 5 day overnight stay.

My children would love to walk your dog upon request for $15 extra a day which would be 20 to 30 minutes a day. They also get plenty of play time with other dogs. We have plenty of chew ropes and bones for the to play with.
