MUST LOVE DOGS

I have had all different breeds of dogs throughout my life. My parents bred French Bulldogs. I currently have a friendly 9 year old Golden Retriever that gets along well with other dogs. I work from home most days so I would love the opportunity to watch your fur baby while you are away.

Vanessa and her darling son could not have been more perfect for us. Their willingness to take on a frisky, high-energy puppy with such affection was outstanding. I highly recommend her!

Vanessa was great! Sent pictures of Charlie & I felt like he wouldn’t want to come home because she was so great with him.

Vanessa went above & beyond watching our pup while we were away for the week. She was prompt with photo updates on the daily, and we felt 100% certain he was in loving hands! We will absolutely use her for every boarding stay in the future.

Our pup had a great time at Vanessa’s. She put her mind at ease with excellent communication and our pup came home, happy and exhausted from playtime.

Schedule

I have a house with a fenced backyard and cameras where the dogs can freely roam inside and outside during the day. My dog Bjorn likes to sunbath on the back deck.

Safety, trust & environment

I would take great care of your dog for the day or overnight. I would feed them as instructed and ensure that there is always plenty of fresh water available. And give them treats when allowed unless there are dietary restrictions.

It would be important for me to know if your dog has any special needs or medications to administer. I can easily adapt to your dogs needs with proper instruction.
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.
