Pet care experience

Chewy's playhouse

I strive to provide a welcoming, enriching home away from home for your dog. To ensure the best care possible, I only accept up to 2 dogs at a time. You can expect regular updates throughout your pup’s stay. Safety is a top priority. I check my yard regularly for potential hazards and do paw checks for foxtails after every walk. I have a large fenced yard with plenty of space for zoomies. Dogs can explore the garden, sunbathe on the grass, or lounge under the shaded pergola. Pets are welcome on the couch, and I also have extra dog beds and an indoor dog house for pups who prefer a little more personal space. My experience: I have a 5yo maltipoo named Chewy and 13yo shihtzu named Joey. They are very respectful of other dogs’ personal space. I trained Chewy using positive reinforcement and taught him many tricks and commands. I have been caring for dogs of all sizes and ages since I was 15. My senior dog experience includes fostering one who was adopted into her forever home and providing long-term care for two others. I’m very comfortable administering medication, preparing g special diets, and grooming.

Vanson kept us updated and was communicative during Arthur’s stay. He was well taken care of and seemed just as happy when we picked him up.

Doggy Day Care • May 11, 2026

Our frenchie spent an exciting day with Vanson’s dogs. He loves to run around and that’s exactly what he did. Vanson sent photos and a video of Bentley having fun. This was Bentley’s first stay with Vanson and it was a success.

Excellent experience. Vanson took great care of my cat Mochi and was flexible in allowing me to pick him up a few days early. Provided regular updates with photos via text. Highly recommend.

My kitties had a great stay with Vanson. Even my skiddiah kitty warmed up to him. They loved the indoor catio and the balcony turned catio so much they asked for one at our house. Vanson was easy to communicate with and provided nice updates. I would definitely keep my kitties with Vanson again.

I had a great experience with Vanson! He provides a very safe space for drop-offs and has a wonderful, pet-friendly backyard. Vanson has a great attitude and kept me at ease with frequent updates and plenty of photos. Highly recommended!

Schedule

Rover is a side hobby, and I ask for a little advance notice so I can prepare for my doggie guest. I follow the schedule provided by the paw-parents. If none is given then it’s usually a morning potty break, breakfast, walk, mid day potty break, dinner, and potty before bedtime. Playtime is sprinkled throughout the day or I may incorporate it with their meal time like food in a puzzle toy.

Safety, trust & environment

I tailor care to each dog’s needs. Every day includes physical exercise or mental stimulation such as daily walks, fetch, tug-of-war, command training, puzzle toys. Let me know how your preferences during the Meet & Greet so I can match your dog’s routine.

Pets

A typical day

It depends on their energy level. The doggo can play fetch in the yard, walk around the neighborhood, hangout in the garden, or chill inside the house. I’ve cared for pets who wanted to nap all day to pets who needed frequent play time.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Vanson can host up to 3 pets per night
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behavior I should look out for. I want to provide a safe and comfortable experience for them. Since I have two small dogs at home, I can only accept small/medium dogs.
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.
