Information Suzanne M. would like to know about your pet

As long as a dog has NO known cat or child aggression we are willing to discuss day boarding/ overnight boarding the pup. We have no breed preferences here as ALL dogs are screened for any serious behavioral issues before being invited to party with us. We can crate and use gates to separate the pack unless they are supervised or in a small "safe pack". We do not leave ANY guest dogs unsupervised with dogs whom we are not 100% sure of temperament.

A typical day

There is plenty of playtime, human time and visiting with other members of the house, human and canine. (And cats, if they so desire.) Dogs are crated at night and for naps and kept separate when not actively playing or interacting.

Highly recommend Suzanne and Karen! I had so much anxiety about leaving Enzo and Bru with someone but they eased my nerves and I was able to relax and enjoy my trip. They kept me updated and sent me pictures. Bru certainly misses all the cuddles he got on his stay! I will absolutely rebook again next time I go out of town. 10/10 experience!

I’m happy that my dog was well taken care of. Updates were given daily and videos were sent showing how my dog was doing. I would recommend to anyone needing a sitter for your pet.

Suzanne watched our baby for 2 weeks while we were out of state. She stayed in contact and sent pictures and videos which were great since it was are first time away for so long. When we picked her up I could tell she was well cared for and she had a great time with all her friends. We will Continue to go to Suzanne for doggy daycare and boarding as my girl loves it with them!!

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.
