Pets

I love Dogs....

Pet care experience

I have looked after dogs as part of my family since I was young. I love having my dogs around me and walking with them. I have experience of dealing with any age of dog from puppies and training to older senior dogs and the things they can get up to. I work full time but if I'm dog boarding I will be at home to spend my time with the dogs. I am available most weekends from Friday and bank holidays .. Other days by arrangement. I live on a farm with plenty of exercise space, walks and a river if they are partial to water. Dogs will be supervised by me while staying. I am able to provide a crate if your dog is used to using one

Verna could not have been more helpful and accommodating looking after my rather senior black lab Sapper. She sent photos and bulletins from time to time, and it was clear that Sapper was really having a lovely time. She came back happy and relaxed and obviously attached to Verna and I will have no hesitation in making the same arrangements again :)

Verna was very kind and knowledgeable about dogs. Monty appeared very happy, greeted me and returned to Verna wagging his tail. I would be very happy to leave Monty with her again.

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.
