Always-Home, Low-Stress Dog Care

Tim and Maxine are a devoted couple who provide calm, attentive, home-based care for dogs. Maxine has had dogs since age 8, and they have always been an important part of her life. Together, they share a deep love for animals and extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of different temperaments and needs. Maxine also grew up in a household involved in wildlife rehabilitation, witnessing hands-on care for squirrels, birds, and other vulnerable animals. Animals have always been central to their lives. They are warm, gentle, and patient, and because they do not work outside the home, dogs receive consistent presence, supervision, and affection throughout the day.

Timothy was fantastic! He was extremely responsive and flexible with drop off and pick up times. My dog came home relaxed and happy.

Timothy was great. Pawblo instantly drew to him and had no problem leaving us when dropping off. When picking up and Timothy had left, pawblo was almost disappointed sad to see his new friend go. He was very responsive, and I loved all the photo updates. We will definitely be using Timothy anytime we need a sitter.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

Dog care is naturally woven into our daily and weekly routine because we do not work outside the home. Being home allows us to structure our day around the cats’ needs rather than fitting care into limited free time. We are present throughout the day for feeding, walks, dog park visits, play, monitoring behavior, and providing comfort and attention. Because our schedule is flexible and home-based, we can respond quickly to changes in appetite, mood, or health, and maintain a calm, consistent environment that helps dogs feel safe and settled.

Safety, trust & environment

We offer boarding exclusively in our home, providing dogs with a calm, safe, and structured environment. Because we are home full-time, dogs receive consistent supervision, walks, dog park outings, regular feeding, daily interaction, and close monitoring of behavior and comfort. We follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules and any special instructions.

A typical day

We visit the dog park daily and stay for a long time to give the dogs opportunity to socialize and chase balls or sticks. They are off leash in the dog park but we also provide leashed walked in the neighborhood.

Let us know about any food sensitivities or social needs. Also, if the dog has any medical limitations. Do they like to socialize or have alone time?
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.
