Pet care experience
I absolutely adore animals!!! I am the person that wants to visit with every dog I see! I grew up with cats as a child and was raised to treat ALL animals with love and compassion. Then as an adult had my own ranch with dogs,cats horses, mules, donkeys, goats and chickens. I have spent a lot of time as a volunteer dog rescuer, taking animals out of bad situations and fostering them. I have worked with all sizes and breeds of dogs (never met one I didn't like!). My house is very animal friendly and Mt. Helena is close for walks... Or, if they want, lots of snuggling on the couch!!
Reviews
I recently used Rover to assist with my energetic German Shepherd, Xena, while my other dog was recovering from surgery. I have never used a dog walking/pet sitting service before, nor has Xena ever not been without family so I was hesitant and nervous. I decided to give it a try and couldn’t be happier. Tracy is a “WONDERFUL DOG WHISPERER”. Some things I love about Tracy - Quick to respond, friendly and easy to work with - Free in home consultation visit to get to know the dog; created a positive connection between dog and herself - Sent pictures and notes after each session - Affordable - Compassionate, animal loving caretaker. Provided me peace of mind that my best friend was taken care. - Provided guidance and experienced tips to assist with recovery of my other dog - Communicated not only with Xena but with the humans in a professional manner Tracy came to the house to meet Xena, free in home consultation visit. Xena who is a little timid went right to her. At that moment I know that Xena would be safe in the capable hands of Tracy. Tracy came the next morning to play Xena’s version of Fetch in our back yard. Tracy quickly learned the game that Xena doesn’t drop the toy that she has in her mouth but you must continue to keep kicking the balls. DESPITE THE COLD TEMPERATURES AND FROZEN GROUND, TRACY STAYED OUTSIDE THE WHOLE TIME PLAYING WITH XENA. Tracy was able to tire out the active German Shepherd in 42 minutes; something I can only do on a 7 mile trail hike. Tracy treated Xena like family. Xena would wait impatiently for Tracy to come for the next session. Xena was well cared for and happy. I believe Tracy loves my dog more than Me. I’m so glad that I found her. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Nugget loved being at Tracy's house!
Tracy was everything we could have asked for in a pet sitter. She was attentive, responsive, reliable, and meticulous about the care needed for our pets. With one of our dogs being diabetic, we were very worried about finding someone who could administer his insulin and Tracy had the experience as well as the savvy to keep our pup healthy. From the moment our meet-and-greet started, we could see the rapport with our pups. Tracy is a god-send! Thank you so much for everything you did for our boys.
Tracy watched my little guy when I left town for a few days on a trip. I was nervous about how he would do, because he can take some time to warm up and gets a little separation anxiety, but Tracy's fenced yard and gentle introduction to herself and the other pups did the trick! My dog had so much fun playing and snuggling and getting loved on that I wasn't sure he would want to come home! I'd recommend Tracy if you need a dog-sitter.

A typical day
Depending on what your dog wants to do, Mt. Helena is a short walk away. We have a very large yard to play fetch or run out some energy!
